The last I heard was that they had cast Gavi Singh Chera in the role. Those rumors are barely 3 weeks old. *shrugs*

They (Amazon Studois) recently laid off around 750 people, IIRC, and already had killed off a slew of shows to make up for the costs and failed RoI from Rings of Power. With Indian Sauron and the utterly lacklustre (and justified) reception of the first season -- only 37% of viewers who started...

They are fun games that straddle close enough to canon to give you the feeling of acting the LOTR universe. They never claimed to be hard canon. People also would only be half as mad with RoP if it did the same, I'd say.

Ough, it was even more "in your face" in Amazon's Wheel of Time.

Well, why has the Iranian healer a Filipino son? Why are there Asian and black people in the rural secluded villages of the Southlands (🙄)? Well, I'd like to point you towards Amazon's Inclusion & Diversity policy, as well as towards a general lack of talent and surface level understanding of...

Well, even the Guardian of all places came out and called it "a stinker". Pretty good article, by the way.

As if the people who hate it would be deterred by that. 🤣

Entertainment Weekly, which had been running promo articles for the show for months, came out and rated it a C-, calling it a giant wasted opportunity or something to that effect.

Reviews so far seem to be a mixed bag, with many 4 out of 5 star reviews contrasted by absolute beatings handed out by the Daily Mail and a few others. Can't google it all right now since I'm at work...

Do we really have to get down to personal insults...? *sighs*

Here's the vid with the "influencers" from all the main countries. It's painfully obvious it's all choreographed.

A YouTuber called disparu has made a compilation of that cringe influencer/superfans video. Apparently Amazon choreographed the very same thing for all its major markets. Can't link since I'm on mobile, but just search for his name. He's also pretty entertaining, so I can recommend him.

Yeah, that was... something. When did we regress so much as a society that we apparently only can enjoy entertainment when it shows people that are exactly like us?

Did anyone see that cringe superfans video? Jesus Christ, it's diversity, diversity, diversity...

So it's about the same kind of bought 'legitimate' fan support as with The Wheel of Time, only bigger.

You know what? Thank you, Amazon. Never has it been made easier for me to not watch something.
