Legend of Earthsea was...interesting. No I have to admit that I found the TV series to be disappointing. I read the books and the series are nothing like the books, so different that I'm surprised they listed the books for credit cause I sure didn't see what ideas were based on the books except for the names. Try any Kristen Kreuk fansite gallery, I've seen some Legend of Earthsea screencaps on them.

I love the Earthsea books - I've read them all.

I haven't seen the show, but I looked it up online to see what Ursula K. LeGuin (the author) thought of it, and was surprised to find that she was furious with them - it seems they totally went against her will and changed a lot of the characters, and having seen a few clips of the series, I would tend to agree that the characters are nothing like they are in the books.

What's EarthSea about? I came so close to buying the movie but wasn't able to :disgust: It looks interesting.

Hmm, I really liked this movie! But of course, I haven't read the books and I've talked to a lot of people who said it was pretty inacurate. lol.

Shawn Ashmore though.... hehe.

You know, I love the books. I have for years, ever since I dug them up from my mom's collection. Anyways, I heard that they made a movie thing and hoped they did a good job. I never saw the whole thing, just like the last 45 minutes or less and was just SO disappointed. I mean they completely changed the WHOLE story! I was SO angry! Just in the little I saw I was furious. I'm glad Ursula was mad too! It totally destroyed it. The books are SO much better!

Sorry 'bout the rant, but it's how I feel.

I'll admit, I didn't read the books, but the mini siereis was about a guy name Ged. He's a wzard. And he lives in Earth Sea. He raised a dead peorson, and now the spirit is trying to get him. It can take his appearence. He has to destroy it. Theres also women who live a lot like sisters (the religious kind) and they pray a lot. There's a big bad gate with bad stuff behind it.....wow. I can't remember any thing else. Grrrr.
Hope that helps. Hope I'm right.

Shawn Ashmore? He's amazing. The Legends of Earthsea? I never read the books, but I saw the movie/show whatever it was on T.V. it was actually pretty interesting. The one with Shawn Ashmore and Kristin Kruek.
