Title Pursuit of Jade
I’ve seen your other reviews before, and I really liked them. If you’ve already written something for this…
I think it started off very strongly and then it just kind of tapered off the military arc disappointed me a lot and this palace arc since we just started it we will see how it goes. I know that a lot of people who don’t rate something at 10 or don’t rainbow fart something into oblivion are labeled as haters and you know, I really don’t care because it’s just another person sitting behind a phone or a keyboard. Whenever I wrote my reviews, I would write what I liked and what I didn’t like in an unbiased fashion, it wasn’t because of the way an actor did something or whatever I would always look at it from the standpoint of the screenwriter. Because it’s ultimately their words that are turned into action. And if it’s weak screenwriting, then that’s what gets transmitted to the audience via the actors. I like those dramas were the actors have input with the director about how to say a certain line or perform a certain action or do something. Sometimes they have it sometimes they don’t. In this case, I kind of felt that the director overpowered the actors a lot because you hear them talk about that in their interviews how they were always nervous about what the director would queue them to do next. I find that to not be a very professional thing. I understand a director has a vision, but you also have to be realistic because an audience has to believe what they are saying and if you make something too unbelievable like what I felt happened within the military arc it hinders the natural development of characters and the drama. I also look at things from a certain point of view because I myself am a novelist/author as well as a former editor of screen place or scripts from friends that work in higher places so to speak. So if I would write something, I wouldn’t be writing it from just in opinion based whatever. I would really think about how it looks from someone who’s writing it or editing it.
