Here it is, the trailer for Sam Raimi’s adaptation of Terry Goodkind’s The Sword of Truth series.
I’ve been waiting to see how this one turn outs. The fantasy genre has been very under-represented in television, and when it does turn up, its usually crap – Buffy exempt, of course. With the fantasy genre riding high at the box office, one highly-rated fantasy series could start a trend. At least, that’s what I’m hoping.
After watching the trailer, I’m even more hopeful. Not because the series it how I imagined it, but because it’s not going to be another Beast Master. And when it comes to television, that’s really the best you can hope for.
Personally, I’m praying this series pulls down Seinfeld-level ratings, encouraging other big screen directors to step up and make some television based on a few good series, like the Wheel of Time.
