The Decameron

Summary

Watching Netflix’sThe Decameronmakes me bitter again about what Disney+ did to theWillowseries . Lucasfilm ’s 1988 filmWillownever became a popular culture phenomenon the wayStar WarsorRaiders of the Lost Arkdid , with both projects go on to launch extremely successful and dear franchises . Nevertheless , Willowgained an enthusiastic fanbase over the years , finally lead toDisney’sWillowsequel series , with time of year 1 ’s installment relinquish on Disney+ in recent 2022 and early 2023 .

Warwick Davis reprised his role as the nominal Willow , and Joanne Whalley returned to diddle her use as Sorsha from the original film . They were joined by an impressive mold of fledgeling , include Amar Chadha - Patel as the devilish Thraxus Boorman , Erin Kellyman as the courageous horse - in - preparation , Jade , and Tony Revolori as the studious Prince Graydon . Despite receiving an 84 % critical mark on Rotten Tomatoes , Disney+ canceled the series , and then did something even worse .

Ted Lasso ’s Hannah Waddingham has a cameo as Hubert in episode 3 of the Disney+ serial publication Willow , and her casting has a unique and sweet backstory .

The Decameron Stars Amar Chadha-Patel From Willow, Which Was Canceled & Removed From Disney+

Amar Chadha-Patel And The Rest Of Willow’s Cast & Crew Deserved Better

As someone who greatly enjoyed Chadha - Patel ’s uproarious and endearing performance as Boorman inWillow , I thoroughly enjoy find out him as Tindaro ’s doctor , Dioneo , inThe Decameron . The comedy he bring toThe Decameronreminded me once again of his tremendous skills as an worker , andhow thwarting it is that Chadha - Patel ’s delineation of Boorman can no longer be continuedand can not even be seen anymore . Disney+ not only canceledWillowafter season 1 , but move out the series wholly from their pullulate political platform .

TheWillow serieswas one of many Disney+ archetype to be withdraw alongsideThe World According to Jeff Goldblum , The Mysterious Benedict Society , Stargirl , and many others . This was done as a cost - effective mensuration that gave Disney a revenue enhancement break and saved them money on paying remainder and licensing fees , but is an affront to everyone involved inWillowand the other mental object absent , along with everyone who watched and still wants to watch these stories . Willowis now unavailable to stream anywhere and is not available as physical media either .

Willow Deserved A Second Season

Season 1 Was Great, And Many Promising Storylines Needed To Be Continued

This discussion section take spoiler from Willow time of year 1.Before it was removed from Disney+,Willownever should have been invalidate in the first spot . Chadha - Patel , Davis , and the rest of the plaster bandage quick developed excellent chemical science , with their eclectic group of characters merchandise witty backchat , going on daring adventures , and have their fair share of authentically heartfelt moment . The series forge its own trenchant identity and tonus while naturally extending and build up off the fantasy and core themes of the original film . Chadha - Patel ’s Boorman was a outstanding exemplar of this , as he was connected to Madmartigan ( Val Kilmer ) and fulfilled his original , but still made Boorman sincerely alone .

Val Kilmer is not in the Willow TV show that serves as a sequel to the 1988 film , and here is why he did not return as Madmartigan in the series .

In addition to these strengths , Willowprovided positive LGBTQIA+ representationwith the romance between Jade and Ruby Cruz ’s character , Princess Kit Tanthalos , the daughter of Queen Sorsha and Madmartigan . I was overjoyed to see a making love story between two young women at the vanguard of a mainstream , family unit - favorable fantasy serial , boost the romantic spirit of the original film . With both Jade and Kit survivingWillowseason 1 , the series did not follow the problematic"bury your gays"trope , and I looked frontwards to their human relationship and its much - needed representation persist in in time of year 2 .

Killing EveandOrange is the New Blackare among the many democratic storey that ended up following the " immerse your gays " trope .

WhileWillowbecame a worthy continuation , many of its story thread were left unresolved . The finale ’s post - credits scene featuring three volumes on a bookshelf tease a three - season design , with showrunner Jon Kasdan subsequently discussing details concern to this . At the end ofWillowseason 1 , the scourge of the nefarious Wyrm still loomed as the heroes began their long journeying home after vote down the Crone , Graydon was revealed to have survived despite his sacrifice , and wake up in a vision where Elora Danan ( Ellie Bamber ) command an army of colossus attend the Wyrm .

Due to Disney+ ’s cancelation , none of these challenging cliffhangers can now be resolve , unless the serial is somehow revive one day . Graydon fall under the control of the Wyrm and his visual sensation of Elora embracing iniquity instead of good was especially tantalize to me sacrifice the two fibre ' history and their time of year 1 arcs . I also want the Wyrm to be flesh out more in time of year 2 , as it worked as an overarching villain while the paladin admit on its minion in time of year 1 , and season 2 could have turn over further into its true nature .

Set over twenty years after the film’s events; Willow sees a ragtag crew of heroes led by the titular Willow Ufgood as they journey to stop the Gales, an evil group set on conquering the world.

Willow’s Cancelation & Removal Is Part Of A Larger Problem

Too Much Content Is Being Erased

As foiled as I was byWillow ’s cancelation , I was happy that I could still re - view time of year 1 , until Disney+ took away this option as well . They are not the only banner to slay message and never discharge it as physical media , with Paramount+ and Max being among the others to do so . Just because Disney+ is not the only one to do this does not make it satisfactory , though , asit is now a widespread job that so many stories are being made unaccessible .

If these cyclosis services are going to continue doing this , they call for to at least make the message usable to purchase as forcible media . I would perfectly corrupt aWillowseason 1 DVD , which would ideally include the hilariousWillow : Behind the Magicfeature that was eject on Disney+ and that was also later removed . Too many multitude swarm too much time and sweat intoWillowand other fib to have them become inaccessible for the interest of tax breaks .
