Hello everyone,
I hope you are doing well. Lately there are more and more adaptations of books, so Shadowhunters by Cassandra Clare are no expectations.
It all started when Cassandra Clare sold filming rights for first book City of bones. Many people were excited that their favorite series is going to become a movie and that they will be able to enter that world again and look at it from a new angle. But as soon as it got out, the movie has stirred the public, because it was not faithful to the book and the wide beloved world.
In my opinion it was a good film, because I managed to divide book from it, so i was looking at them as two completely separate things, but i understand why people were so upset. It must be difficult when you have huge expectations, because there is so much potential, and then they are suddenly crushed, like a house of cards.
We somehow survived that famous film, hoping that no one will destroy this world that we love so much and show it in a bad light, but someone else had a different idea. Then the Shadowhunters tv show was born, new attempt and new hope for world of semi angels.
I didn't have such a big expectations this time. I knew this wouldn't be the same as book series. Frankly some things i really liked, but some not so much. The series definitely had its ups and downs. In my opinion, as the season progresses, there is progress, so i hope it will continue in that positive direction.
My favorite character is Simon. He is most realistic and reliable. As for Clare and Jace, for now they are awkward to me. I think that acting is not a problem, but the incredibly cheesy lines that they have. Isabel is fine, but i muss a bit of her rudeness, Alec had some amazing moments, but also some not so great. Anyway, they have to work more on them, but this phenomenal actors and people will sure do it, we just have to be more patient.
