UWil (Austin Butler) kunye noAmberle (uPoppy Drayton) kwi IziKronike zikaShannara . (ifoto: MTV) IziKronike zikaShannara ixhomekeke kumgaqo wakudala waseHollywood: ngokufanayo, kodwa ngokwahlukileyo. Kwizithende ze Imidlalo yeethrone' impumelelo enkulu, iMTV icinge ukuba izakuzama isandla sayo kwifantasy, kodwa ngokwahluka kwewaka leminyaka. Umbono omangalisayo kwithiyori. Kodwa xa uziqhelanisa, umboniso ujikeleza, ungaze ufumanise unyawo phakathi kwezibonda zendalo ewayo kunye nedrama yolutsha enesepha.
Shannara ulandela u-Amberle (uPoppy Drayton), inkosazana yase-Elvish eba lilungu loKhethiweyo, iqela elinikwe umsebenzi wokukhathalela u-Ellcrys, umthi womlingo okhusela imihlaba emine kwiidemon. Nangona kunjalo, njengoko u-Ellcrys egula, amandla akhe aya esiba buthathaka, kwaye idemon u-Dagda Mor uyavuka, ezimisele ukufumana ulawulo kubukumkani. Ukubuya komlingo kukwavuselela uAllanon (Manu Bennett), umDruid owayekade elwa needemon. U-Allanon ucela u-Wil (Austin Butler), isiqingatha se-elf esingathethiyo ukusuka kumnombo wookhokho bomlingo, ukulwa needemon kunye namandla abo akhulayo.
Ngaphambi kokungena kwimingxunya yomboniso (kwaye mininzi), ikhredithi kufuneka inikezwe apho kufanelekileyo. Imiboniso yokulwa iyonwabisa, iziphumo ezizodwa zinesidima kwaye ukuboniswa kuyacaphukisa kuneminye imiboniso ye-millennial-oriented. UMnu Bennett ( Utolo kwaye IHobbit ) ihambisa ukusebenza okumangalisayo, kwaye hayi ngemigangatho ye-MTV. Ngokunjalo noJohn Rhys-Davies (ewe, uGimli usuka INkosi yeeRingi ) njengo-Evertine Elessedil, ukumkani wase-Elvish. Ngelixa sikulo, umlawuli okhuphelayo kufanelekile ukwamkelwa ngokudibanisa ngempumelelo Mbini Abadlali abavela INkosi yeeRingi iifilimu.
Kwaye kulapho ukufana kuye INkosi yeeRingi bekufanele ukuba iphelile. Nangona kunjalo, Shannara ngokungathandabuzekiyo wakhupha ngokucacileyo i-JRR Tolkien, ukuya kuthi ga kwinqanaba lokungabinangqondo. Kwaye ngaphezu koko, umboniso uwela phantsi xa kuthelekiswa nezinto zawo ezibiweyo (ezibiweyo). Kwaye ngesihloko sobusela, umboniso uboleka kakhulu Imidlalo yeethrone , kwaye bendiphosa uharry Potter ngomlinganiso olungileyo (imeko apho uAllanon axelela ukuba angayenza imilingo ngokungaqhelekanga iyafana uharry Potter , kodwa ngeHagrid encinci kunye nokukrokra okungakumbi).
Ingxaki yokwenyani nge Shannara? Umboniso awunakuthatha isigqibo sokuba ifuna ukuba yintoni, ke izama nje ukuba yiyo yonke into. Inendawo yokudideka, edibeneyo yelizwe eliyiphupha, kodwa akukho nentliziyo ILOTI okanye Imidlalo yeethrone . Kubonakala ngokungathi isetiwe kwihlabathi lamaxesha aphakathi, nangona abanye babalinganiswa benikezela ngesinxibo sekamva, kwaye uMnumzana uButler ngokwakhe wayidlalisa ibhayi endifunga ukuba ndaphantse ndayithenga kwi-Urban Outfitters. Abanye, abanjengoMnu. Bennett kunye noMnumzana Rhys – Davies, banesidima esikhulayo, esinamandla esihlala sihamba nemiboniso yefantasy. Abanye bathi yindumasi. UNks Drayton enyanisweni ngowase-Bhritane, kodwa ubeka i-aksenti ke ngoko e-American-American ukuze azulazule kwiseti ye Abatsho bodyakalashe kwaye akukho namnye oya kuqaphela. Umboniso uzama kanzima ukuba ube liphupha eliqaqambileyo, ngelixa ubhenela abaphulaphuli abakwishumi elivisayo abakhohlisayo, kangangokuba udaka kunye, udidekile kwaye ulahlekile kancinci. Uhlobo olufana nolunye uphawu kumdlalo!
Nangona kunjalo, ayizizo zonke iindaba ezimbi. Ukuba Shannara inokuhlaziya incoko yayo kwaye ithathe isigqibo sokuba loluphi uhlobo lomboniso elifuna ukuba lulo, kukho umhlaba olityebileyo owaneleyo kunye nabalinganiswa abanetalente ngokwaneleyo ukuvumela inkqubo esemgangathweni ivele. Kwaye ngobabalo buka-Allanon, masithembe ukuba iyayenza.
