[QUOTE="TheSword, post: 8462202, member: 6879661"] So I had high hopes. It doesn’t quite hit the mark for me. Something feels off. My concern is too much angst. [U]Things I Liked[/U] Trollocs. Jesus Christ these things are beasts! Awesomely done. Moiraine. Totally Boss. Has the balance between ruthless, powerful and fragile. Dominates every episode. Channelling. I didn’t know what to expect. I like it. It simply conveys the impression of gathering magic. Egwene. I like her confidence and pragmatism. She has charisma. The scene with the wolves. It was fun. The dream sequence. Bats? As creepy as it should be though. The White Cloaks Style. A little one dimensional but they look pretty cool. I imagined knights templars but wasn’t disappointed with their slightly punky robed look. [U]Things That Missed the Mark[/U] Mashadar. None of the quiet creeping menace of the silvery mist. It was a missed opportunity. Where was Ordeith? Where were the trollocs in shader lorgoth. Driven by the forsaken? Where was Tams farewell to Rand? Why isn’t Rand very nice? He’s supposed to be a serious, but charismatic guy who does the right thing. He seems like a bit of a brat. I have no idea why the opened with a weird voice over dressing scene. The scenery feels… too much… not like real places. I love mountains, but there are definitely too many mountains. Where is the characterization. Apart from Moiraine and Egwene I don’t feel like I know anything about their characters. In overview. Acceptable but not gripping. I score it so far a B- Better than Shanara’s F, but no where near Game of Thrones first season A. [/QUOTE]
