    • RE: The Wheel of Time (Spoiler Warning)

      The opening scene almost put me off completely till i saw Moraine but then straight went to the women's circle ceremony hehe. I agree with most Perrin's change left a bad taste and Mat's Dad being a cheat and all. That felt wrong given what Mat learnt from him that helps in the future books.

      Otherwise, very excited for more episodes. Never expected for the books to be adapted into a movie late alone TV show.

      @Jabberwok:

      Adapting WoT to a tv series is a pretty bad idea in my opinion. In addition to the obvious pacing problems and the lack of iconic characters with widespread appeal, I think the simple good vs. evil set-up translates poorly to television. Over the recent years there's been a big shift towards tangible human villains in television, so while the first few books are great in terms of action and adventure, they all lack a concrete villain until the very end. Ironically, the opposite happens later. As villains become murkier and more fleshed out and the politics and maneuvering take center stage, the pacing grinds to a halt.

      A TV series, especially a long running drama like WoT would be, needs either a morally ambiguous protagonist, which takes some time to develop in Rand, or an iconic, charismatic villain, which the series arguably never develops. There are a number of secretly antagonistic characters that would ramp up the intrigue but they're introduced over several later books. One reason that GoT works well as a television adaptation of epic fantasy is because it has both a larger threat, the Others, and a clear initial human antagonist, the Lannisters. Once we'd already bought into that premise Martin could start working on deconstructing characters and introducing new plots.

      The Wheel of Time is simply too high fantasy and too slowly paced to be adapted well. It'll be canceled before it ever develops a large following among non-readers.

      I guess it happening now….

      It's best to have a light Iftar, unless you want to have a stitch while praying Taraweeh.😉

      That's why I said after Taraweeh.

      . . . . . . . how do you worry about weight gain during fasting?

      The food people eat when breaking the fast is astonishing!!! then also the early morning meal.

      I looked for a thread about the Light novels and couldn't find one but was too lazy to create one…...cool for u to do it.

      That out of the way..I have read most of them. ISSTH AND MGA as well as ATG. Are my best.
