The part that bugs me most isn't even them straying far from the books. Legolas Send a noteboard - 02/08/2022 08:33:46 PM

View original postThere are several people on this board who would probably produce better scripts that are truer to the books while truncating them. Some, like Cannoli's likely 8 episode fest of Egwene murdering babies and eating them, will maybe have comedic value at least. But I'm very doubtful Rafe Judkins and his crew will much exceed the amateur screenwriting we saw in season 1.

It's them straying far from the books in ways that assume the viewers are brainless morons. Even if you haven't read the books, or even if there never had been any books and this series was an entirely original IP, you'd be looking at things like Moiraine's 'Let's go face the Dark One with zero clue of what we're doing, what our plan is or who the Dragon is, YOLO' speech, or the channelers' fiasco at Tarwin's Gap that Cannoli mentioned, or the Perrin fridging thing, and going 'uh, this is stupid'.
