You're overlooking something vital by the fact Netflix contacted you and let you released an early review. By doing this, it means that Netflix see's you as a legitimate reviewer. They only usually give early access to people they acknowledge as a reviewer, so take that accomplishment with pride :)

Eh, he's legit whether Netflix says he is or not. The fact that he makes good money off these videos is really the only legitimacy he needs, as Netflix isn't the best judge of artistic integrity, but I get what you're saying about external validation. That being said, he probably has a target audience in the main demographic they're looking to market to. I might give the show a shot too; Alex seems to have pretty good taste.

Netflix don't pay him to review, they're doing it for publicity. In case this was a video game, it'll be close to sponsorship, but since they don't don't sell shows seperately, it's kind of useless for him to get the show early and so he needs to get someone to pay up. I guess Netflix could pay, but maybe they didn't

Any publicity is good publicity. Always. The important thing is to get someone talking about your show so that when people scroll down the list they will go 'oh, that name kinda rings a bell... let's try this'. What they actually say / spoil isn't important. A lot of big hits from the past decades came from lots of people saying it sucked and other people going 'is it really that bad? I'm gonna check it out, then' (Twilight, Fifty shades, After...). Actually it can be argued that easy targets for criticism are good investment in the youtube era: it's easier to make a video which will get views by making fun / ranting about something than by praising it, so more content makers will target the 'worse' show / movie on the market which will only increase its popularity, which in turn will motivate more people to review it (or criticize previous reviews of it...).

its the production team who bust their butt off to make the world seems realistic and alive. All the sets and props are very detailed, just look at the scenes at Ketterdam, they actually custom made all the label to the bottles in the background to look the part. They also made. a whole ass language (old Rafkan) thats actually usable and learnable. Not to mention the stellar CGI that must have costs a ton since its better quality than something they use for The Witcher or Stranger Things (or other fantasy netflix shows). Obviously Leigh deserves credits as well, but the show is so much more than just her writing.

Adding on to this, they had to adapt the world-building you get in the narration in the books and make it visual for an audience that had potentially not read the books. I think they did a decent job but it was nowhere near as comprehensible as the books because they simply didn't have (or didn't give it) the time and scope it has on the page. The books were basically the concept art that the showrunners had to make sense of for a television audience.

@@smileyface8434 You can read Six if Crows and the sequel, Crooked Kingdom, without reading Shadow and Bone. The characters from S&B make a cameo appearance at some point but you can read the story and enjoy it thoroughly without the context of the trilogy. There is another series in the Grishaverse, King of Scars and the sequel Rule of Wolves. Those books are also good, but you do absolutely need to read the trilogy to understand them at all. At the very least, Six of Crows is definitely worth the read! I hope this helps. :)

I appreciate that they're addressing Alina's race. in the books she's white but her being Asian makes total sense also, because she's from a village that's close to the border to Shu Han (which is sorta China sorta Asia in general) and the borders there are always shifting so it makes sense that the population there is more diverse. so I love the fact that they're actually ADDRESING it. a lot of times when adaptations cast POC actors for parts that were "supposed to be" white, they don't address it. so props to the show.

Yes! I imagine that because Shadow and Bone was her first big series the author just went with what was comfortable/expected for her, but you can tell she regretted it. She really went off with diversity in Six of Crows and that's great!! The race change for Alina makes canonical sense and adds to it instead of taking away. It's the proper way of adding diversity instead of like... She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named...

When you're submitting a script/project like that they ask you to include a tagline that sometimes goes along the lines of "x thing you're familiar with" plus "other thing you're familiar with" in "x location". Like the movie Alien was presented as "Jaws in SPACE" even though they're completely different movies. I wouldn't worry too much. It's just a way to give someone an idea of what you're going for using examples they might be familiar with. It doesn't mean that it's going to be exactly like what you're describing. It's mainly done to sell the story idea to producers/distributers who mainly care about money - so they want to play it safe and cling to stuff that the public already knows and likes. It's what you use when you're presenting a pitch. I've had to write a tagline for a script adaptation I had to submit and I honestly didn't feel like it truly reflected what the story was about.

it's dumb and cliche most of the time, but you simply cannot deny this approach is actually useful! I don't take their descriptions literally, it really is just there to give a sense of the vibe, not an actual synopsis. For example, long ago I was sold into reading a manga called The Promised Neverland, being told "it's like Attack on Titan meets Death Note", and in case you're not exactly familiar with those titles, it really was just like what that person described, I knew it wouldn't be EXACTLY those two shows mashed up, it's just the vibes combined, and the vibes indeed were there. My point is, it could actually be useful, regardless of any company schemes, to give a description like that from a consumer standpoint. I wanna have *some* idea about what I'm going into, because sometimes a synopsis can either be too telling or not telling at all...... just my opinion tho xP

I felt he show was okay, I did like that the world is Russian and Eastern European inspired compared to the most commonly used western high fantasy or nordic influences. But I just felt underwhelmed by the overall story because I could see every major plot point from a mile away even before any intentional foreshadowing it just followed so many tropes. It felt like I had seen the story 18 times before just with different names and backgrounds. Overall it was visually stunning and fun to watch a new and fresh universe, but I wanted so much more from it
