Covid-19 was a major chal...

Re: Wheel of Time season 1 episode 8 "The Eye of the World" season finale

My thoughts. Acting: The acting was good. Rand and Moiraine was good. Padan Fain and Ishamael were great. The ancillary characters were good. I'm not a fan of Perrin's acting, but I presume he is acting like he was directed. CGI: Shadowspawn are well done. The One Power was well done. Characterizati...

Re: Wheel of Time Season 1 Episode 7: Dark Along the Ways Prediction and Discussion

Pacing: Choppy and really feels rushed at times. The Ways felt like it was such a short segment, with one second in and out, without much sense of suspense or use of what seemed to be an expensive and time consuming warehouse build. Acting: fine. New characters were good including Tigraine, Min, Age...
