Was WoT bad?
It diverged so much from the source material that I was wondering what I was watching. Don’t get me wrong, they did some things well as far as adapting to a TV series was concerned (I rather liked the Aes Sedai costuming, in the end), but several things were… I’m going to say butchered for the sake of being dramatic. I can’t really give concrete examples without spoiling things, though.
-
The WoT finale was a mess, though I’m one of those people who thinks the finale for the book Eye of the World was also a mess, so I guess for me it was a wash. I’m curious where it goes in the second season with a more straightforward book to adapt plus in theory less COVID restrictions on shooting (and in theory no more recasts).
-
I’m trying to not talk about WoT too much because
- I’ll get pissed off.
- I don’t want to be the guy who tells people who liked it anyway that they are wrong to do so.
… But it was pretty bad.
-
No Bayle Domon though
what the fuck
Also, I’m sorry to say this, but this show really fucked up when it didn’t bring back Billy Zane.
DRAAAAAAAAAAGONNNNN!

I didn’t read the book(s?) about this history and omg the finale ending cut me hard. I should have expected it, given his writing, but didn’t.

@Tori Getting attached or having favorite characters in Martin’s stories rarely ends well.
I haven’t read Fire and Blood (and I’m trying not to, although there are so many spoilers and videos out there) just to keep the inevitable cries of anguish nice and raw when the inevitable happens.

I mean, Joffrey spoils the end of House of the Dragon in Game of Thrones. There’s a whole scene about it. XD
-
@Tori It actually had an element that surprised even book readers. It certainly took me aback. (In a good way).
The general gist was the same though.
Edit: Also yes Joffrey does spoil it. Thankfully most viewers won’t remember.
-
@Smile there’s what history records and then there is the truth.
