Wow. The first episode of this show is so fucking godawful it's hilarious. I may keep watching this for the humour value alone, but it's like watching a MST3K movie without the puppets talking over it.

How does this get past anyone's bullshit filters?

So now I stop watching Supernatural. I'm not watching the new season this fall.

Kane Knight 06-20-2010 10:12 PM

But seriously....I guess you had to get one right, by blind chance.

D Mac 06-20-2010 11:55 PM

Just keep watching some more episodes. If it doesn't start to grow on you then fine.

Kane Knight 06-21-2010 08:39 AM

Oh, I've been watching. Like I said, the first ep was so awful it crossed the line from "terrible" to "so bad it's funny."

Requiem 06-21-2010 02:35 PM

I don't think D-Mac even understands why I dislike it. Like he thinks I am talking shit on it because he likes it or something. The neg rep by him was pretty uncalled for. I don't dislike it because it's terrible (although it is). I dislike it because it is a bastardization of my favorite book series ever. It's horrible because of that. It took a very serious epic and turned it into a cheesy half-assed TV show with people who can barely act, and changed the story so it barely resembles the actual thing, but still uses all the same names, places, and 'direction'.

I guess that makes it terrible though, so I suppose I do hate it because it's terrible.

I find it ridiculous to think that ANYONE could enjoy this piece of trash, because that is WHAT IT IS.

Requiem 06-21-2010 02:38 PM

Honestly would rather tell everyone I know that this show is horrible and not to watch it, so that it gets taken off the air to prevent more people from thinking the pitiful excuse for a story it has is good or resembles the books.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter how bad it is, if there's hawt chix in it, it'll garner some attention on this level.

I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did, to be honest. Almost none of these actors can act, almost none of the characters have anything to distinguish them...Fuck, generally you're supposed to like or hate or relate to the fuckers in a show, and I mean, that would be helped by acting, but really, there's fuck all for characterization.

I still could see this as a "so bad it's good" cult thing, but beyond that, there's bewbs and...Well, that's about it.

The only character I even remotely like is the Wizard, and I don't even like him enough to remember his name.

but really, this is a terrible, terrible series.

Well of course not. He's too in character for you.

Jura 06-21-2010 04:54 PM

His name is Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander, GOD!

RIP Legend of the Seeker.

Ample Heaving breasts ftw.

If I was a confessor I would so confess KK to do my bidding.

Jeritron 06-22-2010 05:51 AM

Diesel Mac, why would you bother deleting a post directed at me when I'm clearly a mod and can see it with one click?

Well, If you were a male confessor. You'd probably have been killed before you knew what to do with her. :)

Kane Knight 07-02-2010 12:51 AM

Wow. I just noticed Sam Raimi was an Executive Producer on this. no wonder it's ass.

D Mac 07-02-2010 12:56 AM

Yeah it's Sam Raimi and Robert Tapert. Guess you didn't like Hercules and Xena too then. :foc:

Kane Knight 07-02-2010 12:59 AM

No, I'm not quite gay enough for that.

That was established when you made this thread. :)

Kane Knight 07-02-2010 01:19 AM

Also, Wow. This show really hates women.

Kane Knight 07-02-2010 01:20 AM

No wonder Mac likes it. Especially the chick in leather whose weapon is a strap-on.

D Mac 07-02-2010 02:51 AM

Well you're still watching it so there. :p

lol I just watched an episode of Heroes a while ago tonight and saw this.

Pretty weird coincidence really.

And mocking it mercilessly. Besides, you were whining I should give it a chance. I mean, an order of leather-clad dominatrices with leather strapons that cause pain enslaving men with them?

An idea so gay only a man who secretly wants a dick up his ass could love it.

But funny as shit. Especially since the mind controlled "Seeker" was probably the worst acting I've ever seen. and I've watched Tarrantino films.

Requiem 07-02-2010 04:19 AM

Just started rereading the series. Am about a fourth of the way through Wizard's First Rule. Having a hard time finding a stopping point every time I read it as I don't want to quit. Was cool reading stuff I hadn't remembered after so long.

Just have the series on a torrent, as I only own like 3 of the books, and got the rest from a library. Good stuff.

Have you read any yet KK? This is the book forum after all.

It is not really the BEST writing ever, but I find it incredibly entertaining. It moves at a fairly quick pace, and the writing is somewhat to the point while still offering enough detail to paint the scene.

Kane Knight 07-02-2010 12:19 PM

All I did so far was download a sample to my Kindle.

Requiem 07-02-2010 03:04 PM

How are those anyways? I have been looking at the cheaper model, as it looks to be a great product with a huge library.

Kane Knight 07-02-2010 05:02 PM

I'm a big fan. The Kindle 2, or I guess it's just called a Kindle now, is a nice size and very comfortable. I own the DX, too, the older one, but it's a pain to take with you in public. Reads very much like a real book (which means no backlight, but I don't like reading books off a computer screen anyway).

D Mac 07-02-2010 05:15 PM

Bruce Campbell should have played Richard. :shifty:

Kane Knight 07-02-2010 05:49 PM

No, he's playing a role where he doesn't chew the scenery.
