New videos and teaser trailers for Amazon's massive Wheel of Time adaptation

Something about all these teasers makes me less excited about this series. I can't put my finger on it, but something doesn't sit right with me. Logain, for instance, doesn't quite look right. I think this is the natural byproduct of developing a look and feel in one's head while reading a book only to see a completely different one translated to screen.



Then I watched this shadowspawn clip, and my tenders got tingly. They nailed the Myyrdral and Trollocs. That's absolutely perfect and chilling.

Having gone through that in GoT, I definitely had to let some preconceptions go but found some casting that was really, really good despite what I saw in my reading.

I know some very bare bones WoT stuff from the SO reading them but excited to go in fresh for once.

I agree. I've just always pictured Logain and Mazrim as big, strong looking guys. The same as Rand who's 6'6 in the books.

I think visually it might be hard to get over in a show? Hell, I don't know truly, but I am excited for the show.

And why can't they give Rand his red hair?

Totally agree. It's def something that matters in the books, but won't be pertinent at all now.

Just so many questions! Will they have Tinkers?! I liked Aram. Thought he was a pretty decent character.

Same here. It's been Ace Suh-DIE for me.
