EFFORTPOST Disappointing Dramatards! We haven't had any Wheel of Woke drama where Amazon r#pes our childhood, and while Jeff watched

fights are shit, translation: actresses and soyboys let stuntment do all the hard work, then when their faces onscreen the lowest common denominator follows

"he fights were so bad! You could clearly tell from her movement that Perrin's new girlfriend had some moves, too bad she was let down by shoddy camerawork." HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

The clear sterile lack of passion, and sandblasting of all originality of the author's touch has made even funky pop redditors nnnoootice the brokenshit tier horrible quality of the show

even redditors notice the widespread contempt new age writers have for the source material

"It feels like an increasing trend where writers are loathe to “just replicate” the source material and so want to add their own plotlines. WoT, The Witcher, Foundation, Halo. The only one that has been done well is Foundation, the rest just feel like the writers wanted to make their own show and forced bits of it into existing IP."

it's strange how the more non-echo chamber normies of /r/television who's wolrdviers are already much more left wing and liberal than my own openly call out the supreme absence of spark and charisma of recent shows, especially from Amazon

"Halo, Wheel of Time and Witcher really make an unholy trinity of great IPs squandered by talentless hacks more concerned with their fanfiction over adapting the material. Be nice if they could all stay on strike."

"You forgot the lord of the rings: Galadriel's thirst for power (Sauron)"

Halo fans perpetually cucked

Commenter 1: "Imagine if you will an adaption of Halo that doesn't have Master Chief, or an adaption of The Last of Us that doesn't have Joel, or an adaption of Game of Thrones without Jon Snow and Daenarys. That's what Wheel of Time is - whatever apologists for this show might spout, there is a clear main character in the books and that's the Dragon Reborn, Rand Al'Thor.

And he's nothing - in fact he's less than nothing, he has systematically had every single piece of character development and every big moment stripped away from him. Book 2 (which was very very very loosely adapted into this second season) contains character defining development for Rand - things that are carried through the entire book series.

It has moments that literally affect the setting and Rand personally for the entire series.

And those are gone - but don't worry guys, Season 3 will definitely be better and have all those cool moments for the Dragon Reborn to have right?"

Commenter2: "No need to imagine, we got that."

Redditors call out the girlboss self insert tendancy of new age writers

Commenter1: "What's crazy is there's plenty of book content left to go where Rand is arguably not the main character. If the writers chilled for one second, they could get to points in the story where elevating other characters in the story makes sense. Literally, next season would be such an opportunity based on the third book. It would be different if what the writers added and deviated from made the books' story better but it doesn't."

Commenter2": "This is what happens to these adaptations. The person adapting it has their own vision, and literally no one wants it. Just do the fricking books. The story is good, and it's right there already waiting for you. No one is watching and going “thank god they changed that” I don't fricking understand the arrogance of these people. It never works but they do it all the time to beloved stories."

Commenter3: "This is what pissed me off the most about all these adaptions. They think they are better than the authors who create the source material themselves."

Commenter4: "One of the WoT show writers literally said "this is the series Robert Jordan would have written if he were writing today" like they somehow equate themselves as a "better" version of him."
