I have broken down and watched the Wheel of Time.

It's not as bad as I thought. Yes it's terrible as far as the storyline goes but the cgi and acting is ok.

My biggest gripe is the way they're showing the weavings

For as "diverse" as they are attempting to make the crowd and cast, why are Moiraine's weavings all white?

Especially when the color and texture of the weaving is the real deal of how the "magic" system works in this story and I feel mostly let down about how they are NOT showing that.

The weaving is definitely not as well done as it could be but otherwise I'm okay with the story. It's typical fantasy fare and I don't expect fantasy anything to ever be something other than a soap opera with magic.

It's typical fantasy fare

But it's not. :marseycrying: It's way better.

The book story just can't really be told with a tv series, even with an unlimited budget

I forgot about how ridiculously verbose the magic was. There’s no chance at all they do it justice.

Why did they even bother? Frick those guys

The male magic, saidin, is black because reasons. The female magic, saidar, is white because reasons.

They wanted to make sure viewers know who is good and bad with white and black.

Oh, poor sad angry little poodle yapping away its aggression on the internet. How bloody typical. If I were a better person I'd pity you. It is, however, not my fault that you are uneducated and have to fall back on silly childish insults. As it is you have provided amusement my little ankle-biter. Looking at the nonsense it seems that you are in one heck of a lot more misery than I will ever be my angry little brat. You should thank me for letting you get your anger out in a safe place. I thank you for the giggle.
