Soldato
I seem to remember I was a little disappointed with the end. Of course, not a hollywood end, but it seemed rather deflating. I never read the books so I have no idea whether it was more upbeat in those.
Really struggling to get through this after 3 EPS of S3, I don't care about any of the carachters, and it's just so boring and lacks any real tension, drama, or excitement. I suspected after S2 it simply wasn't very good, and I think i'm right. Not bad by any means (ROP, WOT etc), it's just not good either (HOD)...
Good opening series but it fell off badly IMO.
I must confess that I started to lose interest towards the end.
It's been nearly a fortnight since I last watched an EP, sadly it looks like another entry in the DNF file. So many shows go in there these days, I think TV producers et al need to get a dictionary and look up the words "Brevity" and "Pacing".
It's like TV shows are made by Ents these days, so little to say and so long to say it...
I really enjoyed this, but thought the ending was crap
Would be keen for them to carry it on though
That's very true. I find that of a lot of series.
The Hobbit is one that springs to mind. A book that is one sixth of the size of the Lord of the Rings but ran to the same number of films.
Been watching this weekly so just finished. Quite a lot of changes in the third book adaptation but overall I think they mostly worked. The one I really didn't like was the cutting/minimising of the Galavespians and how little of Mary and The Mulafa's story made the show. Hell the title piece of the third book wasn't even in the show!
Kind of? But it is kind of important to the dust arc and I felt having it all in one episode was a little weird and meant we didn't really get the character development or friendship, so the goodbyes in the last episode felt a little unearned. I would have liked to have say a scene or two in more episodes, like one of her climbing the tree and learning about the dust, one finding out the difference between mulafa children and adults and their co-dependence with the trees (which was hinted at but not really explained) and then one with her forging the amber spyglass (which they bizarrely excluded)Funnily enough, I thought this was a good move on the show’s part. I felt the book really dragged with Mary’s storyline so I’m glad they skimmed over it.
They explained that, leaving any more doors open would continue to draw dust into the abyss.Enjoyed the show. Didn't like the ending though, even if it reflects the ending from the books somewhat. So, after all that they did for the angels, it was too much to leave one more gate open, even though the are natural gates between worlds? Or I don't know, turn them both into angels as a thank you so they can be together? I understand why they did it, but they honestly could have got away without the last episode at all, and just left it open.
My wife has wrecked it by saying she looks like Marge Simpson.I like her but just cant get over the duckface.............
They explained that, leaving any more doors open would continue to draw dust into the abyss.
They did, but they left one door open without worrying about dust being drawn into the abyss, so why not two? The multiverse had plenty of natural doors open for 1000's of years etc. I don't buy it, just seems like a bad plot point to force the ending. The angels can travel between worlds, and close doors. Why couldn't they open a door for a minute, once a year for them to swap between the two worlds? There are plenty of credible explanations that could have been used to make a better ending views would buy into.
I enjoyed the books when I was younger, and also the TV show to a certain extent. I just feel it was let down by the ending, and it would have elevated the whole show if they picked a better ending.
Were you watching it? They explained that enough dust is generated naturally to sustain one door permanently. They also said that every time a door opens evil slips into the world, a spectre is formed or a natural disaster happens.
