    I don’t think so. Animated wasn’t the only way to make a good adaptation of Lord of the rings, it wasn’t the only way to make a good adaptation of Narnia, it wasn’t the only way to make a good adaptation of game of thrones. Of the problems with the wheel of time series that did get made, the visuals weren’t one of them.

      Dude are you kidding? The visuals weren’t a problem? From episode 1, the Trollocs looked like cheap CGI. The character costumes were absurd, never had a speck of dust on them and looked like they came straight off a Nordstrom’s rack. The disappointing visuals were a big part of why I dropped the show about 6 episodes in.
