Why not follow the books more closely?
Maximillion replied to phanooglestixs's topic in Wheel of Time TV Show
It’s my intent to make the Wheel of Time as an animation. Not for commercial reasons obviously or for sharing publicly but to use it as an anchor for my continued deep dive into animation and AI, both areas i have been involved in for years. I am confident it will be far better than the TV show. i plan to complete the first few chapters of the EOTW by next summer as a POC. -
What would you have started the show with?
Maximillion replied to Blackbyrd's topic in Wheel of Time TV Show
I would have started the show with Tam and Rand making their way to town. Just leave out the prologue and it's all there in the books in terms of unfolding the story. -
I tend to agree with you on that decision being the root cause of the shows failure. I distinctly remember my own excitement level being 11/10 when I first saw the show announced - and then I remember vividly the sinking feeling when I saw the opening scene of season 1. I was still interested in watching, but I was from that point on - perhaps unfairly - looking out for stuff that was being injected into the story to align with modern life and societal issues/hot topics.
