S2 is definitely better than S1, but it could still be a lot better. More experienced showrunners could've made this a lot better.
I don't mind all the callbacks. They probably couldn't help themselves being such big fans of the movies and just had to do it. Lol
Not sure whom I'd prefer to tackle this. After the clusterfuck that was Amazons Wheel of Time, this feels like 9/10 😅
I was thinking people from HBO, but considering HOTD turned out to be not that great, I'm not so sure now. Lol
I actually don't mind WOT - only because I've never read those books! My wife who's read the books is a little less enthused.
As someone who has read the series 3 times, they absolutely woke-butchered the series and fucked things up. Everything that I loved was rewritten, the characters were changed, and the pacing was off.
I have read the entire series multiple times and am enjoying the show just fine
