A little late to the party but I don’t think I will ever get over what Amazon did to Wheel of Time. I’ve read through that series so many times and knew no one would be able to translate it to a live action format. I didn’t think they would throw the baby out with the bathwater, though. Just absolutely unwatchable in any way.
Lovely racist comments in the comment section of that article. Bunch of dipshits.
I keep getting this eerie feeling that this idea has been floated by officers themselves so they have a reason to be even more aggressive to anyone wearing a mask on Halloween. Which, of course, will be a ton of people so that’s right up their alley.
I could just be reading too much into things and be completely wrong.
That’s exactly where that shitty cereal belongs.
TIL there was a director’s cut of Empire Records…
I must have watched that movie a dozen times when I was younger and absolutely loved it. Just goes to show that not every movie needs a director’s cut.
Has no one heard of the Hero of Canton?!
The man that robbed from the rich to give to the poor? Who stood up to the man and gave him what for? Our love for him ain’t hard to explain, The Hero of Canton, the man they call Jayne!
Holy crap, I saw that thing at the airport. Pavement princesses are not really my thing.
Nah, you’ll be good. You essentially time travel back to before the embers festivities like some sort of Christmas ghost experience. Where you keep all your knowledge and stuff.
I’ve beat the game every way possible and absolutely loved it. I know the couple that you’re talking about but can’t remember much else about them to be honest.
As far as the Embers quest goes, feel free to do it whenever you want. Once you beat the game it spits you right back out in front of Embers so you can continue doing all the other stuff. You also get to keep all the cool stuff that you got doing the end game.
I get that Amazon strayed from the source material for Rings of Power buuuuut didn’t they also not have the rights to the source material? It doesn’t make it any better for the fans but I can see why it would be that way. They should have just not made it instead of being the douche canoes that they are and going the ol cash grab route they love so much.
But for Wheel of Time they had the rights to the source material. They had access to Brandon Sanderson for guidance. They had it all and all they had to do was make a best effort attempt at a like for like adaptation. Instead, the hubris of those ass clowns caused it to be one of the worse adaptations I have ever witnessed. Those jerkoffs decided they were going to make a better story themselves and just use the same character names.
The only good way I have seen it being described to lessen the pain is that the show is a different turning of the wheel and has nothing to do with the story in the books. Maybe we’ll get a better adaptation twenty years from now? I never thought I would look back at that terrible Red Eagle version “Winter Dragon” as the best live action variant…
