Yeah, Perrin also isn't free from blame. They just needed to talk about things like adults, but instead we get CW relationship drama

Yes, but then we got the incredibly sweet chapter where Faile does that little feast for him. They really do love each other

They just needed to talk about things like adults, but instead we get CW relationship drama Plus, Perrin's overreaction to Faile's jealousy scent (which is just one component of her emotions and motivations) is what makes him look super guilty. If he just treated Faile like he normally does there would be zero issue whatsoever. His sense of smell gives him additional insight, but without proper context leads him astray, and this is one of those cases where it does.

What does jealousy smell of anyway? Does Faile just smell like heinous egg farts to Perrin all the time while she demands he beat the poo poo out of her? Faile might actually be worse than Elayne, hard as that is to believe.

Have they cast Min yet? Was talking to someone the other day about how they could make Rand's harem less "cringey wish fulfillment fantasy" and had the though that there's no reason why Min couldn't be a dude, right?

They could also like just have them date sequentially. Rand has his fling with Elayne in Tear which breaks off when they leave, then his whole thing with Aviendha before she leaves and he finally gets with Min. He barely interacts with the three of them at once anyways. The only time I think he even sees Elayne and Aviendha after they go off to do their own thing is when he and Elayne gently caress secretly and she gets pregnant.

And he sees all of them in A Memory of Light. Anyway, episode titles have been revealed! 1. Episode: Leavetaking 2. Episode: Shadow Waiting (Shadar Logoth means Shadow Waiting, so that seems pretty clear) 3. Episode: A Place of Safety 4. Episode: The Dragon Reborn (will that be the climax of book 1 already?) 5. Episode: Blood Calls Blood (that's the prophecy that gets revealed at the beginning of book 2, will there be only 4 episodes per book?) 6. Episode: The Flame of Tar Valon (meeting the Amyrlin so soon... at least it also means meeting Verin very early!)

SSJ_naruto_2003 posted:4 episodes for tbhe entirety of book 1 means lots of cut time tbh Around Christmas, I mentioned to my brother's girlfriend that there was an Amazon production of The Wheel of Time in the works. (She had been recommending Netflix's Witcher series.) Her: "Have they ordered nineteen seasons?" Me: "God I hope so." What I want most of all is for things to look and sound right, to match the detailed descriptions given. I often have trouble picturing the clothes and accents described once they start traveling around the continent. The plot and characters I can get from the books. I'd love for the series to be a great adaptation in all aspects, but when I first heard about it, look and sound were my top priorities. They're easier than giving a season for each book.

Assuming the show does well that's a lot of stuff that can be rolled into the Great Hunt portion of book 2 where the entire cast is basically travelling across the continent anyway. Not ideal but I'm sure they put some thought into how to make it all work. And ostensibly season 2 would have a bigger budget, so they can do those elements right. Fingers crossed anyway.

Yeah it really sounds like 2 books in the first season  I can't imagine how that can work, without being a completely different thing from the books. There's just too much stuff to set up.I think you can condense everything else but not the first book. It just sets up too much.

If we're getting a Moirane-centric POV for the first season, that listing would actually line up pretty well to the scene's she's in. I could see them doing the excised bits as flashbacks later on.

You can clear book 1 pretty quickly. It’s a story of Rand, Perrin, Moraine, and a bit of Egwene. All of Nyneave’s stuff is kind of off screen, Mat isn’t really a character until book 3. Loial only needs to be introduced. Honestly you can just drop the whole Rand meets Elayne thing since she naturally shows up in TGH anyways (although Logain is cast so I’m sure this scene happens). Thom is cast so I’m sure Whitebridge happens. Rands trip from there to Camelyn can be handwaved away. Perrin getting lost, meeting Elyas, and killing the Whitecloaks isn’t going to take long, especially if they cut the Tinkers. Aram isn’t cast, so I doubt they deal with them since he’s the only plot point to come out of it. The ways and the blight can be done in ep 3. 6 hours to get through the attack on Fal Dara seems about right. I just rambled a bunch but I can see how the season comes together.

The hay cart rides are pointless in themselves but you gotta spend some time setting up Mat and the dagger and Rand's early channelling surely?

Tinkers have been leaked and look pretty good, I think? Not exactly confirmed, but still. Anyway, they're the other remnant of the original Da'Shain Aiel, kind of important if they're going to delve deeply into the Aiel in TSR.

Ani posted:They can pick up tinkers as long as they have Perrin meeting them in TSR happen before Rand goes through the columns. Yeah, I don’t think they’ll drop them entirely, but it might be better to establish other things and get to them with Perrin in TSR I have no idea if they’ve been filmed already, also I’m just suggesting how I’d go about it

The model isn't to be some slavish episodic recreation of a 300pg book like the first couple Harry Potter movies, anyway. We're going to get the what and the why and the broad strokes, the details and lines are going to get shuffled. But I think having tinker designs dressed this early means they will be in the TEotW segments and won't wait till TSR.
