    I just watched your video from last year about people complaining about Ayoola Smart’s (Aviendha) casting. Thank you for speaking on it and telling racist fans how foolish they were being. This episode had so much going on. Great reaction!

      She’s a great actress. I was excited once I saw the casting! It really surprised me when the racist stuff started up. It shouldn’t have considering how much it had already come up, but she is such a good actress! So cute, too, and she really has red hair! I hope that crap doesn’t come up anymore. I just don’t get it.

    I liked the way Ishmael targeted the difference between Nyn and Egwene. Nyn rejects power while Egwene craves power. Perhaps we'll see a darker Egwene? Additionally I love that Liandrin is so entrenched in the grey as it's what makes her such a great complex character.

    Maybe my favorite so far. I’ll have to rewatch. I’ll probably rewatch the whole thing this week. I really love episode 3 though! It really pulled on the strings of my cold, dead heart, and that’s really saying something! Avienda was awesome, and I loved the Forsaken meeting in the dream. So fun! There’s so much lore in this episode. Ooh, and Sherlock Verin! So cool.

    Easily my favourite episode and more nods to the books than you can shake a stick at! Loved it. Perfect Aviendha.

    Book lore galore! Finally moved onto screen. I hope the producers realize that they don't have to be afraid of introducing too many be terms and concepts, ep5 strikes a nice balance between terminology and exposition. I just wish the writer and director had tweaked the details to be more appropriate to the situations

    I like that they gave Dain his father's temperment, and will likely see him change into someone more obsessed and wrathful after Falme.

    Such a great episode. Aiel fight was amazing. Loved the Brown Ajah investigation team. Verin as Columbo, “One more thing”.
    Lanfear, “is there anything slower that a horse?” Loved Perrin with the WhiteCloaks. Bonding with Dane. Valda’s arm on a sling and fearful of wolves.❤. So many great parts!! Can’t wait for next Thursday!

    Excellent reaction, as always!
    Did you catch that we’ll have fewer than 13 Foresaken? Lanfear mentions Moghedien, Graendal, and "the boys," so where’s Semirhage? My guess is she was cut and dropped on the floor-probably with a couple male Foresaken.

      @fudgyvmp3961 Рік тому +4

      Steppin's idol set did have 4 women and one was very much in line with most Semirhage fanart. Lanfear just might not mention her since she hates her too much.

    Lanfear's statements are true. Some of the Forsaken are actually idiots. In fact, some barely survive their first encounter with Rand and his allies. The Dark One picked his Chosen (Forsaken) because they were useful in the futuristic Second Age. How useful the Forsaken are in the Third Age is up to question considering Ishamael is the most useful.

    Okay... Obviously the adaptions is taking lots of liberties.. The story is quite different but... They still have some good moments. When aviendha pulls up her black vail... That was kinda sick lol

    • @JustSomeBodisOpinion
      @JustSomeBodisOpinion  Рік тому +1

      I mean it’s a different turning of the Wheel! Also, I would say it’s still the same story (to me anyway)-theme wise and story arc wise.. but the plot (sequencing and how they get from point A to B) is definitely different.

    Best episode of the whole show so far. I'm really enjoying season 2. Its not perfect (wtf is Lan's storyline lol) but they are heading in the right direction. Casting is all fantastic. Really enjoying some of the changes from the book, like Moiraine's famly (brilliant choice by the writers) and Liandrin.
    biggest problem is theres just not enough time. The show is just starting to really get good and theres only 3 eps left? it NEEDS to be 10 eps.
