I don't understand the video. You didn't start with the history of cinema so I am a bit lost.

A problem with this show (both seasons): half the characters play it like this is Game of Thrones, but the other half play it like they’re in Lucifer.

The Wheel of Time had one FATAL flaw. It wasn’t Morbius, the best film in history, available now to see in theatres!

I got ~7 minutes in, decided I should read the books first, and have returned after finishing all of them. I am now primed to hear your thoughts on the show.

I can't remember the last time I saw a tv or movie adaptation that quite literally went out of its way to disrespect the source material. I knew Wheel of Time was going to be bad, just not THIS bad.

It is so weird that studios will make a big deal of and spend money on adapting existing stories, only to be ashamed of that material. The industry's inability to take risks on unknown or new IP really hurts their ability to tell stories

Haven’t watched this show at all but I am definitely nodding and agreeing because you are wearing glasses

They're trying so hard to create the next Game of Thrones, but Game of Thrones's secret to success was faithfully adapting the books. As soon as they started making big changes just for drama, the series sunk like a rock to the point that nobody will buy the DVD sets. Wheel of Time started in the dumpster and quickly set it on fire.

"Vehicular Manslaughter wouldn't make Sam a better character" is an incredible quote thanks

It'd be funny if instead of a video essay it was "The Wheel Of Time Failed, here's why" and it was a screen recording of the entirety of wheel of time
