Legend of the Seeker

I'm not even sure if this topic is allowed, but if you don't know "Legend of the Seeker" is the live-action mini-series for Terry Goodkind's Wizard's First Rule. I'm not going to provide any links but google it and you can go on its official website and see a trailer.

 

I wanted to know people's thoughts about this AND PLEASE don't make this a Goodkind vs. RJ thread! I just want to read people's reactions about this.

Of course it is allowed, this board is after all named general discussion ;D

 

You may however want to pay a visit to the Seanchan Org (scroll down a bit), since that is the org dedicated to anything happening on telly and the big screen.

Battousai - I saw the trailer last weekend when I was digging around for information on the new series, and on one hand, I'm excited to see one of my favorite series' come to life on screen (although I think it would have been better to do on HBO/Showtime), on the other hand I was not 'super' impressed with the trailer I saw.  I'm hoping they pull it off well, but only time will tell.  On the bright side, this is the only way I can get my other half to get into one of the series' that I love. 

 

He's into Harry Potter right now, but won't read the books, he just waits patiently for each movie to come out.  That would drive ME crazy.

Thanks for the tip!  :)

 

Might as well move to the Seanchan board, since it seems more suited to be discussed there.

I saw earlier this spring that they were making a tv show of Wizard's First Rule. I'm still not sure how I feel about it; guess I'll have to watch it and decide then. Anyone know anything more about when it is coming out other than 'fall 2008'? I've been searching and can't find anything less vague.

First week of November, I believe.

Ahh, of course. Just in time for me to move to my new place and not have tv anymore! lol...I guess it makes a good excuse for dropping in at my mom's house once a week or so.

Really? I stopped reading Goodkind after the third book. Wasn't a bad series at all, I might have to re-read it...... if a certain other author dodn't write such a fantastic and fucund series I am re-reading. Be sure to put up a review in the Seanchan board when it comes on. TV loves to do "fantasy" stories dirty, tho.
