Rejoice!

Death to the showsaken
I hope this man gets blacklisted from ever working in the industry again.
He's already been kicked off the god of war show amazon gave him to make
Many female villains getting raped
Maybe I should give the books a second shot.
Many female villains getting raped
Can someone give an example of this?
A show that practically nobody watched went on for three seasons.
It's not that kind of book. It's not gritty and edgy. It's the idea that the villains of the story are consorting with demons and devils. And what invariably happens, is the devil does some fucked up shit. Especially when the villains fail their masters, and the devils are displeased.
It's not using rape as an "haha, you got what you deserve". And the scenes end before any details are given.
It's implied that moghedien is given to some ringwraiths as a plaything after she fails a mission
Wish both of these people would croak.
That's because Amazon has more money than sense. I predicted this would happen, because the first season got super delayed, and they still went into full scale production for the second season, before the first one was close to premiere. That told me that Amazon already bought 2 seasons. I extrapolated from there, and assumed that Amazon might have bought 3, possibly 4 seasons. So it wouldn't matter what the ratings were, since they already spend the money, they were going to make their 3 seasons no matter what. The problem came when it was time to renew the contracts, and their ratings were too shit to justify buying more.
Any other examples? I read the books twice but cant remember other rapes.
The elites intentionally ruin franchises and make shows that they know that people will hate and then keep those shows alive despite their unpopularity in order to demoralize people with their mere existence.
Not that anon, but I think there are only like 2? Maybe 3? If I remember correctly, and Aes Sedai and her Warden get interrogated by one of the Forsaken near the end of the book. And the Forsaken uses pleasure to torture as much as pain. So it's implied she was brain-raped.
Actually I just remembered that one Black Ajah, Falion getting fucked by some random Darkfriend because she failed in Ebou Dar
Yeah alright but the twitter drone specifically mentioned female villains
I think that Aes Sedai was Black Ajah too. But don't quote me on that. My memory isn't the best.
She was some Blue Ajah caught and interrogated by Halima so she could pretend to be her close friend and infiltrate Salidar
or was it Semirhage
the rape aspects i understand but the
nooo you cannot let fascists divide mars venus genders in a fascist society

I think you're on my side but you type like an esl with a massive brain injury so I can't be sure.
did anyone even watch this show past the first episode
one glance at the retarded looking magic spells was enough, turned it off. and it was supposed to start in winter not summer
I got through the first two seasons. Tried my best to gives the show a chance, but it kept failing me time and time again. I watched two episodes of Season 3, but couldn't stomach any more.
BTW, do you remember when Min is in disguise in the tower, and she's forced to wear feminine clothes to maintain her disguise? Well the show does away with all that. They put her in a white pants suit.
im not, fuck you boomer
never been happier to see a show fail, what fucking garbage on every level. I read the books and couldn’t believe how far off the mark they were. when I bought the books they had an ad for the show on the cover and I was seriously considering blacking it out
when I bought the books they had an ad for the show on the cover
I'm sorry to hear that. It's wild how they felt the need to spoil the whole IP. It wasn't enough to just make their shitty show, they had to attach it to the core works.
I made it to the shadar logoth episode (It was such a train wreck that I had to see how bad it got). my first hint that it was going to suck was when they pushed egwene off the cliff in that ritual in the beginning (it made no sense and was not in the books). that show was so bad it’s like a fucking miracle of shit
You MotherFuckers! This is what you took from us!
May I ask who exactly was the audience for this show?
They immediately shit on and turned off all the book fans that might have helped advertise and carry word of mouth. It's not spicy and shocking enough for the GoT audience. Conservatives aren't watching it because of the Girlboss/Yasqueen aspect.
Who was supposed to watch this?
I devoted my life to ruin this adaptation
did robert jordan rape his mom or something
Make Perrin married and fridge his wife because we don't understand his motivation
Perrin is in love with Egwene for "reasons"
Here is that very isolated village I was telling you about where everyone looks similar except Rand and they have a sexually conservative culture. Kek just kidding!
Mat has a stable family? Yeah we can't have that, make it Grim and fuck it up for reasons.
"Hollywood trope" Rand and Egwene's initial relationship also for reasons
Lez out Moraine
Lez out Siuan
Lez out Elayne
Lez out Aviendha and pick the ugliest actress you can find
Lan killed fades no problem in the books? Kek! Yeah Fades fuck him up now. He needs help from powerless Moraine to take them out.
Aviendha is a girlboss and can go toe to toe as well with Lan no problem
Let's take all Rand's big movements and disperse them to the female characters. Egwene and Nynaeve wipe out the Tarwin's gap army
Find the only Asian mid 30s walled actress in existence to play the "21 year old Min", one of Rand's future love interests.
Rand is not allowed to do anything for almost 2 whole seasons
Yeah Fuck Rafe and Fuck this show.
HAHAHAHAHAHHAAHA. only Rosamund Pike is remotely attractive and she looks like she’s in her 50s. Fucking Hollywood really is so unbelievably Jewish and gay.
Not pictured: Min, Egwene, Nynaeve and Aviendha, all of whom are ugly as fucking sin.
I would genuinely not care that all the Aes Sedai are hags, if they just stuck to the material otherwise. If they made all of the characters look like their ethnicity they're supposed to be. And made all of their sexual preferences what they're supposed to be. And made their plots as close to the book as they can.(giving leniency to the restrictive time frame they're working within)
If they just did that, then their hagginess could be easily overlooked.
Is Lan supposed to be strong in the books?
he's probably the deadliest man to ever live, yeah
tfw no thicc forsaken gf
jfc and there's people that watch(ed) this?
Let me just say this: He's not the type of guy who shows up to win.
Totally. When looking at eye candy you have to wonder is it all just because you're looking at pretty girls, like the only reason people watch House of Dragon, and that's sad. In other types of shows, I do like young beautiful girls sometimes so like I'm conflicted, but for this show it can go either way.
It's easy for males to be pulled along like a carrot on a stick with sexy females, and why would you want that. Now and again fine, do it, not all these shows just softcore porn disguised as something above it.
oh lmao it's a literal faggot who was on survivor like 20 years ago. that explains a lot
Mat steals from the village and fences the stuff with Padan Fain
Perrin is supposed to be childhood friends with people that look half his age
Egwene looks like she should go back
The modern audience, of course! Any day now that modern audience is going to finally show up and every lbgtwtfbbq thing they can dream of will be funded forever. Just you wait
>Perrin is in love with Egwene for "reasons"
There is a brief time in Book 1, where Perrin starts thinking of Egwene as more than a friend. But it doesn't really go anywhere. Just a young man's feelings toward a girl he ended up isolated with for a time.
Also, to add to your list: Nynaeve is not overbearing or bossy like she's supposed to be. She's sad and mopey all the time. They completely neutered her character.
that is Min?! wtflmao no wonder this shit got canceled
I guess you can say it's time was up!
brief time in Book 1, where Perrin starts thinking of Egwene as more than a friend
I remember one of the tuatha'an women asking perrin if he and egwene were together but that's about it. The question makes him think of rand, and that he doesn't have those feelings for egg. I don't remember him actually thinking of egwene as anything more than a friend
am I a boy sheepherder
Jesus, bro
kek at the clothing. It's looks completely modern. Especially the jacket.
i'll be sure to blend in with my sears modern womens pantsuit spring 2016 collection
Is he even attached to anything anymore? I think he was fired across the board
Not currently. He was booted from God of War. I found it baffling that he was ever put on that in the first place.
Even beyond all that. What the fuck was the point of the dragon? They never mentioned tarmon gaidon at all. There were 0 stakes at all. The entire framework of the show was pointless
Let's take all Rand's big movements and disperse them to the female characters. Egwene and Nynaeve wipe out the Tarwin's gap army
Rand is not allowed to do anything for almost 2 whole seasons
This shit is the biggest failure of the entire show. Rand was not allowed to be the main character.
First, it was due to their stupid "who is the Dragon Reborn" plot but even after he was revealed as the DR he still was sidelined. It left a huge hole in the show.
I stopped watching at the end of season 1. I remember perrin and rand getting into an argument over egwene and perrin whiteknighted for her so hard it actually seemed more like he was gay for rand. Did they go full nuclear option and follow up on that? It was hilarious
Aiel has a system of blood-brotherhood/sisterhood.
Obviously this must be sexual!
I swear to god they're brainrotted.
follow up on that
no, like many things, it's never mentioned again
He kills one of the most powerful Forsaken and the second best swordsman in history in a swordfight and makes it look easy.
They couldn't even keep their own continuity straight
It's a generational problem more than a brainrot one. People these days just don't experience bonds and friendship as much and so they lack the ability to comprehend and write about it. Hell, you have anons in these threads who agree with the show making those bonds sexual because they don't understand it either.
There are literally dozens of people in the thread unashamedly admitting they were boosting the viewership of this series. And kept it around for 2 seasons extra
I fucking hate all of you pieces of shit without remorse
Each season was greenlit before the previous one even aired. Viewership literally meant absolutely nothing.
What about this is fantasy?
they likely had a deal for 3 seasons hence why they were greenlight early. Plus I imagine most people pirated it. You're getting mad at something that doesnt exist
WOT
Overrated trash. The Belgariad is better.
They track pirating and count it as viewership
cant even order the books correctly
These are those ageless minimum 9/10s I was talking about
literally who is top left?
Chuds did this...
Ya know, a lot of people give The Wheel of Time shit for having a "cliche" first book. But I never got what they meant. Because I read Wheel of Time fairly early on during my exploration of the fantasy genre. I *guessed* it might have been tropey. I'm a gamer, so a lot of fantasy tropes I encountered while playing JRPGS back in the 90s and 00s.
Then I got around to reading Belgariad. And it had all the same tropes as Wheel of Time. And then I was like "ah, I get it now". Except Belgariad's first book is way shallower than Wheel of Time, by a large margin. It doesn't feel like it's accomplishing anything except telling the most basic and cliche fantasy story ever told. Truly, Belgariad is the rightful recipient for all the shit Wheel of Time receives.
I didn't bother reading beyond book 1.
Personally approved by Robert Jordan himself.
Who is the second girl?
Milana Vayntrub the AT & T girl
buy rights to beloved IP
hand it off to people who say "I know nothing about the source material and FUCK anyone who does"
also we don't know what we're doing btw and the show will be shit on its own merit too
canceled
How many more until they learn
Learn?
some IPs have yet to be destroyed
t. disliked the books and avoided the show
deathtranny
You shut your whore mouth
Nynaeve
She also has a grand total of one time she heals someone with the power and even then it was an accident.
I have won again Lews Therin...
one time she heals someone with the power
it was mass aoe heal and revive
witcher books
good
lol, lmao even
Well, it was more about the WoT books...
dude just hands her the phone again lmao
I hope Rafe never works again.
She was actually good as “Death”, just completely different in looks, and somewhat different in character from the comics.
I can understand why her casting pissed people off, but coming into the show without reading the comics, she was fine, and still one of the better characters.
admitting to being a secondary
Opinion discarded.
She was actually good as “Death”
LOL NO
Groids are hideous and their appearance always detracts from their performance. ALWAYS.
And don't act like you read the fucking comics, you stupid rebbitor.
rosamund has forever ruined moiraine
Male feminists...ughhh
Rosamund as Moiraine is not an issue. It's far down on the list of things to give a shit about, considering everything else they fucked up.
Sex with Selucia
Me and my gf started it but turned Into hate watchers very quickly. She is moderate femoid but even she was disappointed because representation without quality is pointless and annoying.
We finished S1 but never picked other seasons up, it's just not even worth of the hate watch.
Show was dogshit.
The actor playing Ishamael did a great job.
I have nothing else good to say about this (nepo?) trash. Its a shame they wasted his performance.
season 1
lmao
Rings of Power bros, I'm scared, are we next?
Bezos sisters, why didn't our 12 point plan to make EPIC television fail?
This. Because when you have all the money in the world, the only thing that can make you happy is making other peoples' lives worse.
because you also have to comply with this
I never read the books and couldn't follow this show at all. Never understood what the fuck was happening and the acting and sets were very boring. It was way worse than S2 of The Witcher.
Because they didn't follow it?
Where is this from?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
we are so fucking cooked chat
This is why I torrent everything
I certainly hope not. Have you booked your Amazon™ Fan Pen™ for the season 3 premiere yet Anon Babble?
I remember that day. Was that 2022? Was some good funposting.
fucking hell this was so funny
god I hate this moronic faggot
Why doesn't Amazon leverage their employee base offer their workers benefits in exchange for watching their shows, like one additional restroom break per week or 5 minutes outside of the wage cage per month? I'd be a great way to boost their viewing figures.
Based
I C O N I C
Dont actresses get fucking offended by this? Imagine if someone said "Yeah you got the role but uh its because we want to break societal norms on beauty (basically a nice way to say you look ugly)
lmao
think about the wasted potential of all shows ruined by this shit
here's 100 bucks because you're a retard
would you not take the cash?
Where did they say that though? I mean for Wheel of Time specifically. Who on the Wheel of Time team said anything about Aes Sedai casting breaking societal Norms?
They said that about the Witcher show.
Who was the target audience for the show?
obviously she would never touch a sword
But apparently fighting without veiling up is all cool, eh, Rafe, you fucking faggot?
After casting the only attractive pajeeta as Yen ?
Middle aged lesbians and gay men with mommy issues.
Like the guy who became a human volcano? The guy who got eaten out from the inside by beetles? The mindraped male sex slaves of Graendel? The main character getting locked in a tiny chest for weeks, only getting taken out to be tortured?
That must be their excuse or do you actually think they're in the casting room saying "yeah cast her look at how ugly she is no one will be offended"
I don't think they say anything about looks while they're actively doing their casting. Neither directly nor indirectly. Do you actually think they're in the casting room saying "yeah, cast her, she's going to break societal norms". No. They might have the discussion among the directors behind closed doors. And then when it comes to actually casting, they're just going to put out the bare bones information about the character.
Gender: Female
Age range: 30-50
Ethnicity: N/A
Height: N/A
Weight: N/A
And then the hags will show up to audition. No patronizing speeches necessary.
Literally the most skilled warrior in the world. He's so strong that the Aiel consider him a living legend.
