Legend of the Seeker
(+_+):
Anyone get a chance to see this series based on Terry Goodkind's "The Sword of Truth" book series. I'm wondering if it is a worthwhile watch.
Dartful Dodger:
I saw it. It reminded me of the Hercules/Xena series, only the acting is a lot worse and there aren't any hot women in skimpy clothes.

That's a wonder. Actually, there are a lot of actors out there who are pretty decent, but not right for any part, as well as a lot of terrible script writing to make things worse.
AmericanDemon:
I've read the first book over a dozen times. They have many inconsistencies and I almost shut it off. Then I recalled how bad they butchered portions of Harry Potter. So I kept watching.
Its not too bad. It does have a loittle of that Xena Hercules vibe to it, but I dont find it quite as campy. Maybe I am a little too close to the subject matter. Whats truly funny though, I didnt even know it was being made. I was flipping through and saw "Legend of the Seeker" and thought to myself that they really needed to make a "Sword of Truth" tv series or movie and then I saw Kahlan (Wrong color hair) fighting off the Quad. I got sucked in and was awestruck that it had flown under my radar like that.
Hopefully it gets better as time goes on. They did also screw up my personal visual representation of a gar. Not nearly big enough..... anyway.

This seems like an incredible waste of you're most precious resource. There are far too many effing amazing books in existence (and being written all the time) for you to ever read in a lifetime. Broaden your horizons, my friend. If you need suggestions, I'm happy to oblige.
