alcaras posted:Is "whoever gets between the Dark One and the Dragon will die" a show change? I don't recall it from the books, but to be fair, it's been 20+ years since I read Eye of the World. There's a lot that's different here. 1 In the book Moiraine is not expecting a fight to the death with the dark one. She doesn't think whoever the dragon is would be up to that at all. The long term plan is to build up the dragon. The short term plan at the EOTW is she knows the dark one is interested in it for vague reasons and is seeking to counter because he's interested 2 In the books the dragon is supposed to be the one doing the dying. 3 In the book she wants all the kids there because they are ta'veren and the notion she has is, even if the odds are on paper against them 3 ta'veren will gently caress the odds sideways. Not sure if ta'veren is a thing in the show None of that is criticism of the show per say Well the criticism I guess I have is, why does she think Rand is ready for this? Its questionable to me that he's ready for this. It feels like she's taking a promising prospect and throwing them into a death match with the world heavy weight because he has good instincts.

I wonder what they'll even do.. I can't see them having the budget for the Sealing along with what Rand and all are doing this last episode. I guess maybe just the argument over what to do? Really excited to find out talkin bout LTT and Latra

they possibly might not even have lews therin and her directly talking but showing two separate perspectives, one from each. not sure! it could go in any direction.

I assumed the logic is largely the same behind Elayne's Children. "I can't lose because I'm not prophesized to."

MegaZeroX posted:Presumably Moraine will die, considering that Min said that the Amyrlin would be her downfall, and Siuan is the one who had Moiraine go to the Eye. Plus, I'm guessing booking Rosamond pike for a full 3-4 seasons is expensive and also somewhat difficult since she is sought after. And her plot relevance in books 2-5 is basically trying to constrain/guide Rand, but she is only there for Rand really in books 4 and 5. And her role in book 14 is minor. Then, in season 2 we get Lan and Nynaeve development, and a motivation for Nynaeve to become an Aes Sedai (to bond Lan). Rand needs some more early development since doesn't seem like he is running away from everything, and killing her here can help motivate some next steps. Rosamund Pike moved her family to the Czech Republic and took a producer credit, she wouldn't have done either of those things if she was just in this for a one-and-done

Pike really seems invested in this and it shows.

Yea, but as pointed out previously, the show prophecy is actually what happens in the books at the end. Goofballs posted:Well the criticism I guess I have is, why does she think Rand is ready for this? Its questionable to me that he's ready for this. It feels like she's taking a promising prospect and throwing them into a death match with the world heavy weight because he has good instincts. Siuan's dream is that the dark one is weak right now.

He'd have to be real weak for Rand to pull out the win. Maybe the show Dark One is more of a Sauron figure than an extradimensional timeless force of destruction and malevolence. Its probably just an Ishamael dream she had but I still wouldn't put money on Rand at this juncture. His accomplishments so far are knocking down a door and tossing a trolloc over the side. I'm really enjoying these Machin Shin loving with a horse posts though

I mean, yes obviously it's Fishy Ishy mucking about in dreams. That's the point. It's a trap laid by him by making Siuan think that the dark one is very weak, but getting stronger so if they strike now perhaps they can win.

i'm still wilded out right now that the show is doing fairly well even considering that it's dealing with the inevitable first season weirdness that a lot of shows go through and has to put in more effort to make the tone closer to later books than i expected

Hopefully they just bring Moiraine back early and have her do Cadsuane's stuff. Moiraine is perfectly capable of teaching Rand tears and laughter, especially since she actually knows the dude. I hope Cadsuane is completely cut.
