Eh I dont mind it TBH. theres always going to be changes from book to tv/movie adaptions and making it not take place across 1,000 years makes a heap of sense because otherwise theyd have to reintroduce new characters constantly and build them up rather than taking established characters.

Its also not the first time. IIRC in the LotR books there is a 50 year gap between Gandalf and Bilbo leaving the Shire and Frodo setting out

These changes seem a lot more significant than just getting rid of some time gaps. I don't know how you can weave Numenor, Gondor, Arnor, Sauron, the Rings of Power, and the War of the Last Alliance all into one time period without this basically being a brand new story. Maybe someone more familiar with the Silmarillion than me can confirm or deny this
