True enough. I do not like their Tolkien fantasy series, it's clunky in some way, or the actors are not right, something is off. WOT, I quite liked most of the casting, loved the sets and landscapes and costuming and took the edits in stride, thought of it as an "inspired by".
My hope would be an animated series.
And as a William Gibson fan, oh I am used to disappointment.
And they did the right thing by calling it Rings of Power and treading new ground instead of warping old stories.
That's what they should have done with WOT.
"Another Turn of the Wheel" where we see a group of young people mentored by a grizzled Moridin(see where I am going here) after their village is raided by Trollocs that haven't been seen for 500 years.
I would watch that even after seeing what they did to WOT.
