I really wanted to like Wheel of Time but it was just garbage.
Not just woke, but as I said earlier, dull. The sets look and the costumes are horrible.
And in a strange occurrence, that I truly believe is intentional, all of the female actresses are homely. And not just because they're not white. There's plenty of beautiful ethnic actresses. But it's like they made a conscious effort to hire physically unattractive women, to send some message or something about female beauty. Even the normally ravishing Rosamund Pike looks old and frumpy.
I agree on ever point you made. Where is the exotic looking Foreign women we should have been seeing on this show? Why so slow and plodding> Why so woke.
The new Reacher series was pretty good though. Actually got someone who resembled him in the books.
Cause in reality of this fantasy, Middle Earth has plastic surgeons, Macy’s and Target to accommodate those men who need to look at someone face instead of their own pot belly. Soap, makeup and a hair salons on every corner…. Forget this is to take place in a war torn world with no sanitation or convenience store and evil always knocking at the door.
#22 it is not just that show. I have been noticing this on many shows. Look at the actresses today and you will not find a beauty. They were all over tv shows back in the “old” days.
That’s exactly it - and it’s why Western pop stars all look like Billie Eilish or Megan Thee Stallion, these days.
