Take the White Tower and its descriptions in the books versus what we see in the trailer. The White Tower was built so close to the Breaking and with the Power that it was basically straight up and closer to being our own kind of skyscraper than the neo-Baroque Byzantine hybrid that every city in Fantasy seems to be these days.

Aridhol (Shadar Logoth), Tar Valon, the city in the Amazon Tolkien show, the cities in LOTR movies. It's become so generic that a Fantasy city has to look this way. And that annoys me.

Sanderson's providing some kind of running commentary... which does contain criticism.

I think the point to remember is, the early episodes were never going to be that great.

So, doesn't suck nearly as much as some other shows? I can accept that. *NM*

Yep. But it's pretty weird how many entirely different things people are seeing in it.
