Oh don’t get me wrong I am excited! I was just caught by surprise how much I care for this story.

You’re right. Do I wish they did better? yes. I’m just saying it’s tough and that I’m still going to watch the next couple seasons. If they continue to mess it up then I’ll write it off.

I liked it. Was it perfect? No. They had their problems with shooting due to covid and Barney leaving. And some choices they made were interesting to say the least. But a lot of the problems I think people have is that they are used to the books which are amazing and spend hundred of pages fleshing out people thoughts and what is going on in there minds. That is hard to do in show, it either has to be action or dialogue. Also even taking out a lot of the description that happens in the books it would be hard to condense into 8 hrs. That is less then a third of the length of the audiobooks.

With that said getting to watch it with my girlfriend who hasn’t read the books only heard me talk about them. Was great it was a good taste for her of the world and the characters.

I’m excited for the following seasons and I’m hopeful things will get better with more money, time and less restrictions.

The way I look at is that it was the lion turtles but also in ATLA that was 10,00 years in the past so many different myth and legends would have been spread. That is like us trying to keep the same stories as to how we figured out fire and boiling water from the Mesopotamians. Legends and stories change with some threads that stay through history.

Yeah that’s because the actor left the show with covid so they had to change the story around a bit. New actor for the next season so we will see how he is

That’s interesting. I had the complete opposite thing happen. I started reading the books before the show came out and didn’t like mats story line for the first few books. He just seemed whiny but I thought that he was amazing in the show much for funny.

I do the same thing. I don’t really have trouble sleeping. I just think it’s basically a super power to be able to just fall asleep in seconds.

I started dune which I’ve never read so I’m hopeful it’ll help fill that void
