- The Fans campaign `Save the Wheel of Time ” is about to cross a few key steps
- The organizers plan to control an airplane and a banner on the heads of the head of Sony Pictures
- The prime video show was canceled after three seasons at the end of May
The fan pressure continues to extend to Amazon and Sony Pictures after The wheel of time was chopped at the end of May.
Before the cancellation of the High Fantasy show after three seasons, its dedicated fans base had called the series production studios not only to renew The wheel of time For a fourth season, but also make sure that its complete story has been told. These calls came hot on the heels of The wheel of timeThe casting told me that they were “confident” during its renewal of season 4. Unfortunately for all the people involved, the original Amazon TV was preserved shortly after.
The faithful public of the first video show, however, refused to throw in the towel. During the weeks that followed its cancellation, a campaign of fans `Save The Wheel of Time ” was organized after viewers decided to channel their frustration in something more positive. However, a relentless fan pressure to force a U-turn on the premature end of the show.
The first three weeks of the campaign were also productive. At the time of publication, an online petition was signed by more than 174, 600 people. Nearly $ 33,000 was also collected via the Gofundme campaign page – donations that allowed the organizers to buy a posting panel in Times Square, New York in early June to promote the movement led by fans.
Things don’t stop there either. In the coming days (June 18 to 20), digital and static display panels in New York, Los Angeles, London and Sao Paulo display messages from the initiative led by fans. A plane will pilot a Savewot banner on the heads of the head of Sony Pictures and the Amazon MGM studios in Culver City, in California, between 12 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. PT tomorrow (Tuesday, June 17).
In a declaration accompanying the latest press release from the campaign, a spokesperson said: “We are really stunned by the world legion of fans who donated to our fundraising! Due to their generosity, we can pass our message to the upper level with the display panels and an overview.
Opinion: A valiant effort, but will he talk about the time that Fans of Wheel of Time want?
It is undenished to deny The wheel of timeThe Legion of Fans does everything they can to convince the studio leaders that he was scrapped before his time.
Few fans campaigns have also been persistent in their quest to achieve their goal. In fact, there are only two that immediately come to my mind. The first is the online campaign which led to the possible exit of The Zack Snyder Justice Leaguealias the original cut of the director of his latest superhero film, on Max in mid-2022. The other is the upcoming prosecution of ReligiousHistory – Although by a Religious Film trilogy which has not yet arrived – after the cancellation of the Netflix program after two seasons in August 2023. There is a precedent, then, for longtime fans campaigns to achieve their objectives.
The problem that “saving the wheel of time”, however, is twofold: one, will the organizers have patience, resources and energy to maintain this level of concerted pressure? And, two, Amazon and Sony will they really listen to?
If one of the best privileged video shows is to return from the dead, he will need the answers to these two questions to be resounding “yes”. Otherwise, the third season of the series, which, as I noted in my The wheel of time Review of season 3, is the best entry in the series from afar, will mark the end of the road for this campaign of magic fans.
