Yea, I just read phantom. Waiting this next however long for the next book is going to be excruciating. While I'll be interested in seeing the mini-series, I know damn well they're going to fuck it up.
It might be decent though. Casting is going to be absolutely crucial. Id love to see who they cast for Chase. Richard and Kahlan I'm sure will not fit my imagination. Seeing how they dress the Mord Sith (Please Please Please don't ruin my fantasy about THEIR costumes) will be interesting. However, I don't know how you can put the kind of torture inflicted on Richard on a TV screen for a general audience. Maybe an HBO miniseries? Then it would have serious potential. I just don't want to see it on CBS.
As said previously, there is some seriously brutal things in the whole series, much less Wizards First Rule alone. But it's part of what makes you get into the series. The blinding hatred for some characters, the realism, etc etc.
Any of you ever read Feists Riftwar Saga? That's a set of books I'd love to see turned into some movies. But they have to be Rated R movies, or whats the point?
