Journal kesuki's Journal: *spoiler* winter dragon The wheel of time review 1

i saw the pilot for a potential wheel of time tv series. if you've read the books, it's nothing new but for any diehard fan it is a must see. it takes place in the age of legends just after the taint. the actors did a decent job, the scenes were ok and the special effects were laughable. but this is a pilot and it was based on perhaps 1 or 2 pages from the book. apparently the company that holds the rights to WoT was obligated to make something WoT to not lose the tv/movie rights. it was filmed in a single day by a crew that makes a lot of pilot episodes, it's overall quality is very poor but i don't blame the actors it simply is a pilot and they are making it to not lose rights to something they think more people will pay for it if they wait for the big networks to buy the rights to air the program. that being said i would geek out if i got the actual file(DVR quality) for the pilot. they have made series that are worse than the WoT pilot before. i remember how bad SG1 was in it's early seasons, but i still loved it. a WoT series would be awesome but i would prefer it to be on a channel i get... or on netflix or amazon prime. getting fxx is out of the question and getting a dvr would require me paying my dad the cost for switching to the satelite to dvr model instead of the regular service we have now... needless to say this is not something i can't live without. i already have more entertainment than i have time to watch (unless i went off line and only watched my physical discs) or if i quit social media and went to streaming/buying discs but i am a news and social media junkie and it took me a long time to quit gaming, so i wouldn't really expect me to have an easy time quitting social media...
