Where are the extras ? :o *NM* AgentApple Send a noteboard - 23/11/2021 05:42:40 AM

As for the characters, they're definitely making major changes, but not all in the direction of making their personalities or motivations darker. Less subtle, definitely, but that may be inevitable for a big fantasy show that doesn't have time to capture all the subtleties that Jordan did take time for - or if it did take the time, would need to cut even more of the plot than it already has. Greg talked about wanting more of a LotR feel, but the thing is, LotR has many hours to tell a much simpler plot with far fewer main characters - and even then, a lot of the good stuff ended up on the cutting floor and was only restored in the DVD versions (which I personally consider as the real movies, I'd suspect he agrees).


View original postYes. The extended editions are far superior. Speaking of extra - have you watched the three short animated extras - The Breaking of the World, The Fall of Manatheren, The Greatest Warder?

I am not even bothering with 2 & 3. - 21/11/2021 09:51:46 PM 1252 Views
Other than that, how did you like the play Mrs. Lincoln? *NM* - 22/11/2021 12:32:59 AM 337 Views
No stars, would not recommend. *NM* - 22/11/2021 12:57:28 PM 325 Views

Too bad! - 22/11/2021 02:59:24 PM 586 Views
A reasonable decision. - 22/11/2021 02:15:23 AM 780 Views
But I'm a thoroughly unreasonable person! - 22/11/2021 02:29:45 PM 640 Views

Sanderson's providing some kind of running commentary... which does contain criticism. - 23/11/2021 07:59:10 PM 632 Views
Yes, I saw his comments on reddit. - 23/11/2021 09:41:33 PM 676 Views

Glad to hear it. - 26/11/2021 07:10:34 AM 755 Views
Good, those changes seem completely unnecessary and pointless. *NM* - 26/11/2021 05:43:39 PM 340 Views
I think the point to remember is, the early episodes were never going to be that great. - 22/11/2021 08:46:33 AM 653 Views
Eh, I think you give them too much slack. - 22/11/2021 02:33:04 PM 647 Views
It's possible I'll agree with that after having seen more episodes... - 22/11/2021 03:04:54 PM 641 Views
That's a big "if'. - 22/11/2021 03:31:11 PM 674 Views

Yes, it is a big 'if'. I guess I'm an optimist? - 22/11/2021 04:17:41 PM 645 Views
Agreed on - - 22/11/2021 05:27:28 PM 669 Views
Yes - neat addition, I thought, as is the map with the comments. - 22/11/2021 08:37:19 PM 574 Views
I liked the maps too! - 22/11/2021 09:36:09 PM 647 Views

So, doesn't suck nearly as much as some other shows? I can accept that. *NM* - 22/11/2021 01:44:23 PM 417 Views
