I doubt anyone here cares about the show anymore but is good to know they are doubling down on woke crap.
I enjoyed the books. I hope one day someone will, you know, actually adapt them.
Third time's the charm 😐
I honestly am ok with them going so far from the source material. I'll take that over "small changes". If anything I want them to go completely overboard. This way I have no reason to watch it and if it fails miserably then maybe next time they will give it a proper adaptation, similar with LOTR where they specifically wanted a faithful adaptation and to leave their personal politics out of the movies.
Good point
He openly admits to “expanding things” only hinted at in the books or that aren’t even in the books. I hope it fails. I know homosexuality is in the books but Jordan didn’t dwell on it and it was mentioned and the plot moved on. Glad he isn’t alive to see this
If he were, they wouldn't even be making this.
I hope not. Should be a lesson in how not to adapt a book series.
"Everyone really likes this book! We should change it."
That would be a great line in an SNL type skit mocking this stuff
World of Trannies?
Man, World of Tanks has really gone downhill.
They had to introduce tranny issues at some point (ha ha trasmission)
why make your own when you can ruin theirs?
More lesbians, I'm guessing?
The inclusion of lesbianism in media seems to be a way to denote feminist takeover.
That's because lesbians are hot. Everyone likes lesbians (movie and porn lesbians anyway, not the real-world kind). Gay men fucking on-screen doesn't go over quite as well.
I’ve met too many real-world lesbians to ever be turned on by fictional lesbians anymore, now it’s just the clearest indicator that something is being made for faggots.
Mayor Beetlejuice shudder
Corporate wants you to find the difference between these 2:
They're the same picture
There couldn't be any more lesbians. Pretty much every female character in the books sleeps with other women. Not explicitly, but it's heavily implied.
Jordan really went with the Spaghetti approach for women's sexuality: Straight until wet.
But I don't see the wisdom or profit in highlighting it in the TV adaptation rather than just keeping it heavily implied.
Jordan was a Freemason: religious and quite conservative. He steered clear of openly portraying any sexuality in his books. He was also obsessed with women. I'm still not sure if all of the women in his books were portrayed as entitled, manipulative, controlling shrews in order to villainize them, or if he genuinely wanted the audience to like those characters. Either way, his fixation on "pillow friends" and corporal punishment regarding his female characters speaks to something else buried deep in his psyche, I'd say.
Sounds dreadful. Why are we so concerned about them ruining something that's already shit?
Wow Imp, are you sure you're not a woman?
I watched 15 seconds of the first episode and immediately could not stand anymore. And I’m not even a fan of the original series
Rafe is another grooming retard
people been coming out as rainbows for last 3-5+ years.. why do people still make it a big ass deal? lol. hell, if polls say 30% of people are LGBT, then they not that special anymore.
Power and social status. It's not that it confers new or higher status, but that remaining normal makes you part of the lesser class.
Like chinese eunachs. They got power from working in high positions in the imperial government because they loyal enough to chop off their dicks and they cant have an affair with the empress or concubines.
Well I don't watch this series so I don't care.
there are a lot of otome games women would like if you make them TV series. you don't have to massacre these IP
The goal isn't to make good TV, the goal directly is to massacre the IPs.
Actors and background staff alike openly bragged about not knowing anything about the source material.
yeah I sadly know. is just powergrabbing and they want to rub it in your face for you to know they have this power.
Nope. It's about the aes sedai. Again
It's gonna be a load of Greens that look like this with their multiple warders
