Unlike Rings of Power this one told me at episode one that it would be utter shite. Thank you Disney for making this easy, 19 minutes in and it's bye Felicia.
Leader of the quest had died and nobody mourned after him for a second. What a great script.
It's silly and pretty ridiculous...but it's fun af and that's all I really care about. I'm down.
Utterly disappointing (+ words to reach 5)
So far it is hitting all the wrong notes with me. The dialog is bad, the humor is awful, the actors aren't great, the sets look bland and having pop-rock music for the credits leaves a wrong impression of what this show is. Oh, and that great reveal at the end - what a surprise. That was painted all over the episode.
While the show does take some getting used to if you loved the movie. I think it does actually get better in the second episode. I also didn’t expect Dove to be Alora. I expected Jade.

I loved this! I understand it has its flaws, but it's light-hearted and a great nod to the source material. I love the team-up, it feels forced, but the characters work well together. Shout out to Boorman! A Legend. Dove grew on me very fast, and I feel like there is more to her than we know. While I enjoyed Airk, I'm glad he's the one who got kidnapped. And the guard dying was so dry, I loved it. I expected him to perish, and he did only a few seconds after I said it out loud.
Hey, this was a super fun sequel to a great movie of my childhood. I also thought the evil monster designs were fun and menacing but not too scary. The reveal that "muffin girl" was the baby from the movie caught me off guard. I thought it would be the redhead night. Yes, its a silly fantasy show and I am glad the writers stuck to that formula instead of turning it into something it wasn't 34 years ago.
First episode was an utter snore fest. Randomly threw in a lesbian kiss scene too which wasnt called for.
Another woke shit. Not finished episode one and it's enough for me. I've never deleted so many shows like in the last 2 or 3 years.
this looks and feels cheap.
In comparison to some of the other commenters here, I actually liked this episode. I have never seen the original Willow nor do I know the story but so far it’s quite entertaining and interesting.
WILLOW was a favourite movie of mine, so I was excited when I heard they were making it into a TV series. Unfortunately, it’s badly written and even more poorly performed. Hopefully, it will find its stride, so even my rating of 5 out of 10 is hopeful it will get better.
not my type of shows but I've decided to give it a try.
first episode felt rushed, idk could spare some introduction to peeps who haven't watch the movie (me) but i think it's also great they went straight to the point.
kit's relationship with the redhead was also rushed, very rarely these types of shows do a wlw kiss on the first episode, not that im complaining but it just fell flat–where's the longing? the angst? the build up of their emotions and repressed feelings?
we barely knew them and their relationship. sure the redhead is in love with her but what about kit? its pretty normal for someone to be upset when they are forced to marry someone they didn't love and then knowing your bff will leave you the day after your wedding i would to, so when kit kissed her it felt out of the blue.
it seems like kit and airk have different accents for twins? do they not grow up together? airk instantly proposed marriage also felt rushed, they just show what their characters are and then 'oh yea he'll stop being a womanizer now he's getting marriage problem solved' like what him getting married doesn't even benefit anyone but the muffin girl, it was kit their mother wants to marry
also their group leader was killed and no one brought it up afterwards? no shock no cry no appreciation? even if you barely knew the guy that shouldve shocked the muffin girl or the prince
overall i don't get a single thing they said probably bc i dont care I'm just here for the vibes, although i do like how the show is shot and kit's hair looks amazing
How many people are catching up on this this week since it’s being pulled? Standard fantasy fare with some pretty people (the prince who is definitely channeling Madmartigan with his sword flourishes), but a marked lack of Warwick Davis in the first episode.
WTH did I just watch? Pretty sure they stole that one guy from Thunderdome and I'm not even sure what to make of "Double Zorro". The writing feels like someone pointed an AI at TV Tropes and said "Write me a script, baby!". The only good thing was when they cranked the brightness down to 20% to hide the effects.
I'm gagged!! I was pretty sure she was Elora but I didn't think they were going to reveal it in the first episode.
P.S.: So nice to see old Willow. :heart_eyes:
Slow start till the attack and the quest commences. Feels cozy and nostalgic. Very Disney, so more for those of us who refuse to grow up or live in DnD-land. Does exist in a charmed and charming universe so deserves a break, even without undue expectations. I'll go along for the ride but I'm not going to worry if I have to press fast forward. Think of it as fan fiction.

If you tune your mind way back in time to the wonderful era of the 80s ... you can enjoy this a lot.
