The list included the first mention of Harfoots and downplayed the rumor that “Game of Thrones”-style nudity would be rampant in the show (both of which were spot-on). It was also claimed that Sauron would not be revealed in Season 1, which was close, but no cigar.

Tucked away in the lengthy list was a minor two-part item that said the ring-maker, Celebrimbor, had been recast and that
