It's not the changes to the plot, it's the poor cinematic quality that makes it look more CW than premium top tier show like the HBO, Cinemax, starz. Costumes were shit. Cgi meh. Pacing wrong. Book adaptations can be done well look at Outlander and GoT! even The Vampire Diaries and it is CW lol.

Guys I will give the precursor it's not the changes to source material it's the quality comment to not get ripped.

But still the cold intro did not spend anytime building the world which they could have done to prevent losing people. Nice flashback scenes from Moiraine to go along with the monolog.

The costumes were very LARP homemade looking cosplay. I've actually seen better cosplay. No layering textures, no rough woolen fabrics to show they were country folk. It's like they thought that meant tatty worn out cotton blend. Can you imagine how much Rands coat would've gotten in the way to do winter chores!? The Red Aes Sedai looked the worst in their anime robes like it was a uniform.

I just don't get how they had 10 million an episode and missed this mark so badly. I'm not a film critic so I don't have words to describe what feels off to it. I don't think it is all bad but like it's 50% shit.

The opening scene is a great example to me of how it felt so low budget and wrong with the male channeler. It could have been a moment but it felt so off. To pan out and see Moiraine above was ridiculous and weird. How could they have planned that?

And to say we aren't wanting to Copy GOT but find the dragons fang on animal parts just like GOT that I believe that was in the pilot too wasn't it?

And I wanted to say the trollocs were good bc that is a hard task but man they weren't. Shadar logout they spent a lot of money on but I didn't even catch that mashadar voices were what lead Mat out to find the dagger. They just gave some shitty story about

I'm going to rewatch with my daughter who is obsessed with fantasy these days. She knows the Witcher is bad but still LOVES it so.

Sadly 90% of the critics say it's bad. So it's not just us. I was desperate to be wrong but even Washington post bezos own newspaper didn't have a good headline for it.
