people who want to bring books to life (film) have no talent, i wish i was a director with tons of money.. i would show the world something they had never seen!
Terrible. Another case of my imagination completely owning a movie. How sad that they would put such a childish looking actor and silly looking fight scenes to such an amazing book.
alright i know the books are very different then the show, but the show is still good. besides we all love the books because of richard and Kahlan, so who really cares what their doing as long as we have them. the book series is great, i won't lie, and the show is different but still good. people just need to open their eyes and allow themselves to be sucked into their world. it's not that bad
haha. you are right. sometimes it would be better if Richard could just shut up:).
i watched the first episode b4 i judget.
well, at least i tried to. had to stop after 30 min, coz i could not stand it anymore.
at least what richard says in the books makes sence. in the show, only bullshit comes out of hes mouth. i did my best to find something positiv in the show, and i must admit, the trailer looks very nice. but that s it.
This show has nothing to do with the epic world of the sword of truth books. This is a complete load of bullshit. I am very disappointed in Terry Goodkind for backing this travesty.
Ok....is it just me but does Richard look WAY too young? Almost like a boy... Moreover he looks like one of those studs you see on teenage sitcoms/drama/whatever...kinda kills the "fantasy" for me.
Kahlan doesn't have the Book of Counted Shadows. From what I understand, and gathered since I had the same problem, it is a book of prophecy about the seeker.
I can get over DR Having dark hair. I think they did this to contrast it more for TV. Sadly, things do change when books are scripted. LOTR's did, and I noticed the changes there to. I like what I've seen so far, so I'm looking forward to it.
The book of counted shadows isn't of prophecy. It is a book of incantations. Richard did burn it though. Darken Rahl wants it to be able to bring some sort of beast into existence. Can't quite remember, i read WFR like 10 years ago.
I never said it was a book of prophecy. The book that Kahlan is HOLDING in the slight show of it is suppose to be a book of prophey about the seeker. They are both different books. I've read the series, myself, and I had a problem with her having the Book of Counted Shadows. However, I was informed that it is a different book. :)
darken rahl wants to use it to have the power of orden so that he can basically rule the world. the series was the best ive read so far... just finished it 2 days ago and it is AMAZING
Uhn *headbang* This has book disaster written all over it. It looks too disney like. The clouds and the pretty gold lettering in the promo does not help one bit. The characters look too young and too ...small. All I can think is "will this turn into another Eragon blowout?" The Goodkind books are not meant for TV. Maybe for the theater....R rated theater, but not for tv.
Not in theater its to much int he book to edit it down to a 2 hours movie but a showtime series would be great. I'm still looking forward to it i love these books
I can't decide whether or not I'm excited about this. I think the casting was done poorly; I always imagined Russell Crowe as Richard and Liv Tyler as Kahlen, but that's just me. We'll just have to wait and see how it turns out.
I can't wait until this show airs, a show like this hasn't caught my attention since Hercules and Xena. But then again, I wasn't awhere that there were shows that existed since.
I say set in your chair watch the clouds and see what happens.You can learn more form watching clouds then chasing rainbows.But then "nothing is ever easy."
i envisioned richard to be older but I am super STOKED about it.......kahlan is def. gorgeous, she fits my description of her.....but I look at it like Terry is involved in all this so if its the way he see's it then I'm in
what the hell? Zedd is like a half a foot taller than Richard in the scene were he's giving him the Sword... I'm pretty Richard is taller in the books.. Richard isn't manly enough either. that dude needs to bulk up a little.
You all that are saying its bad are judging straight from the book and you cant do that the TV show is not going to be 100% like the book its impossible. The show will have more story and elements all under the supervision of Terry so just back off and quit judging. Also the cast is fine just give them a chance.
I am a HUUUGE fan of the books, but this looks pretty bad.
I know I shouldn't judge it before I've seen it..those are just my impressions. Looks very cheesy and low budget, very VERY poorly cast by all characters..
I will give it a chance and watch at least the first part or two..
i can say that it can be a good series. i was really not expecting that they can masterfully portray the book but as i can see in the trailer, they can do it. it gives me creeps seeing the sword of truth being handed to richard. btw, is the one with the arrow Chase? he looks asian.. overall rating, very good so far.
I really hope it turns out better than this trailer looks. It looks as they they are going in the direction of a cheesy sci-fi series, the characters they cast are all wrong at least appearance wise. That guy doesn't resemble Richards description whatsoever besides the brown hair. Seems like they cheaped out and it's going to be a big disappointment. Let's just hope for something better than a Hercules look alike. Of course it is ABC and Disney so they are bound to f**k it up.
keep your smart-mouth, show-hating comments to yourself, seekerhaters. You don't have to watch it.
