I have never had something new, no matter how shitty it is, impact my enjoyment of something I experienced before. I have just as much love for the original Star Wars trilogy, Jackson’s LotR trilogy, the first Matrix movie, etc. no matter what got released afterward.
I only saw Revenge of the Sith for the first time about a month ago. I heard from people I trust that it was shit, so I ignored it. I haven’t seen Rise of Skywalker for the same reason. I’m happy just ignoring all the sequels, and works perfectly fine for me.
Same with the hobbit movies. I saw part of the first one on a plane and just never bothered to watch the others. But I’ll still watch the LotR films no problem.
I figure the Amazon show will probably be good but not fantastic, and it’ll be considered an abomination by some segment of Tolkien fandom (especially if it has, gasp! nudity in it). I’ll certainly give it a try.
