What I saw was not Earthsea. This was so loosely based on the first two novels that I am shocked that they could still call it Earthsea. But, I do understand that they can call it whatever they want.
They even went so far as to make Ged his public name and Sparrowhawk his secret name. I guess they felt Sparrowhawk sounded better in echo then Ged.
And who's dumb idea was it to add the evil king? They took out all the cool stuff like the battle with the dragons of pendor and filled with stuff that was never in the book.
After all, what did the foolish author know?
Sci-Fi has once again trashed someone else's work.
I recommend you read Ursula K. Le Guin's comments at this site. http://slate.msn.com/id/2111107/
