I've been catching up on the Wheel of Time TV show - and Barney Harris as Mat Cauthon was my favourite character (followed by Nynaeve). I love me a tortured & misunderstood rogue, and he's very handsome. I was hoping for more of a spotlight on Mat's story. But I started season 2 last night and Barney is out, and Dònal Finn is now Mat Cauthon?! I know I'm months late with this, but it's bullshit and I hate it! (Sorry Dònal).

I'll keep watching though.

This has been TV corner.

@mattb Harris didn't take well to pandemic filming and health restrictions is the scuttlebutt

bedirthan,
@bedirthan@dice.camp avatar

@mattb I think Finn works for the ancient general scenes.

Harris was better at the playboy rogue stuff

Season 2 was stronger overall.

I only learned of this project now, but this is the dumbest and the most awesome booklover’s project I’ve ever seen in a long time. 🤩

I didn’t guess who she gave this book to (I thought it was Matt Hatch, who is the “innkeeper” of The Dusty Wheel YouTube channel), but giving it to Daniel Greene is a really excellent choice.

Now that I've finished and gone back to reading "regular" books, I have a whole new appreciation for Robert Jordan's ability to create interesting characters and weave (🧐) them into a compelling story. I'll never complain about women who fold their arms under their breasts 47 times per chapter again.

...well okay I will because it's silly, but point is, the man could write, in a way that a lot of run-of-the-mill published authors cannot.

@bookstodon

ametonym,
@ametonym@todon.eu avatar

@diazona @bookstodon His writing is so vivid and absorbing, but boy did he need more aggressive development- and copy-editors.

diazona,
@diazona@techhub.social avatar

@ametonym @bookstodon I think I don't agree with that. I mean, sure there were a few typos that should have been fixed by better copy editing, and the story was certainly more complex than it needed to be in a few places, but neither of those detracted very much from my experience.

Or, I guess I should say, I don't think more aggressive editing would have made the books substantially better for me. I'd believe it could have done so for many other readers.

Geeze, watching is such a trip- I've got all these half rememberances from reading them as a kid, but nothing whole, so it's like I've got plot premonition but that's all.

Immensely satisfying to have those old neurons turn on all "YEAH I THOUGHT THAT'S WHO SHE WAS!"

st33d,
@st33d@mastodon.social avatar

@glassbottommeg @getter7seven It's worth it if you want the experience of, "lol, are we just ripping off Dune now?" And yeah, but it's kinda fun.

I read it before the conclusion was written and it stopped in a big pile of plot spaghetti.

I read Mistborn and hated the Christ allegory and writing style, so I've not tried the WoT conclusion.

glassbottommeg,
@glassbottommeg@peoplemaking.games avatar

@st33d @getter7seven oh geeze you gotta read the WoT conclusion, it cured me of any lingering regret I had over having started that series. Brought it all to a fantastic conclusion. Managed to tie off every single plot thread, which was incredibly impressive.
