Checked all the usual shill sites and it has been cancelled. I say good. The tone of the sites was about how they are leaving fantasy fans high and dry and insisted that the 3rd season was getting good. Some comments from show fans attacked book fans for being critical of the show by using the stupid "the books are the books and the show is the show" argument.
They act like we don't understand that some changes need to be made when adapting a story from book to tv/movie. This showrunner made zero attempt to respect the source material that already had plenty of female empowerment to go with.
Maybe I'm petty but when they announced the cast of the show I knew it wouldn't be good. I guess the one benefit of race and gender swapping is that is shows the priorities of the people in charge.
As I said before, they venture out and meet people of different races. The books really drive home the point how isolated Two Rivers is so like you said the racial makeup is ridiculous. Showrunner was also obsessed with lgbt stuff that wasn’t in the book like Avienda being gay
Showrunners: "We need representation for blacks!"
Anyone that has read the books: THEN FUCKING WAIT FOR TUON YOU INPATIENT RETARDS! SHE'S LITERALLY AN EMPRESS LATER ON!
Showrunners: "But we want it nooow..."
/canceled because of retarded decisions.
Exactly. I was like there is a black empress later in the books if you just wait
