Live comment as I'm watching it right now, the intro speech, haa, they should have kept a deep voice like in the movie, it doesn't feel ancient so to speak but the words are great and a nice recreation of the original intro + getting the audience to pace (not sure if this is proper English ... ) with the mythology.
Edit, 6:39 minutes in, I know what's ticking me, it reminds me of Cate Blanchett voice pattern in LotR but not as good as hers.
Design is top notch, Chamberlain whining is spot on.
Edit : ep03 in. Good stuff, it's nice. I wondered about some continuity details (Mystics, Augra, the Shard ), all explained ( more or less but still ).
Pfff, Scientist movie look explanation yeahhhh.
Edit : saw it all, it's really nice. I hope there is a second season.
