Just finished my first read, mostly loved it. What is everyone's thoughts on Taimandred? Did RJ really change the story because his message boards figured out his twist? lmao Taim, Logain and Rand not really ever having a big moment together is probably my biggest bitch about the story, and Demandred being the Big Bad in AMoL felt a little out of left field. Seems like Taim being Demandred would have made some of this make a lot more sense.

CainsDescendant posted:I don't want a 1:1 adaptation! I get the realities of what it takes to get a series like this on screen at all. Probably my favorite adaptation of all time is The Expanse, which certainly takes some liberties with story and characters to get the story across in the time allotted. The Expanse is a near perfect adaptation, because it was a second draft by the original creators. Not to mention that it was almost certainly originally written with the idea that it could be adapted to TV. WoT is an apples and bowling balls comparison.

Submarine Sandpaper posted:They could have actually made it moraine focused instead of the dumb mystery and following all the EFF. Who really needed to see that awful perin and egg white cloak scene? Him showing up with yellow eyes would have worked just as well, and plan for branching out after moraine gets fridged in the wastes. The return to EF is going to have to diverge from the books massively anyway in the show. Pacing is an issue, and giving all characters something to do while also sticking to the source material is really tough. You provided probably the worst possible example of something to cut for my taste. Perrin and the Whitecloaks rules, and it also has ties to the endgame of the story. Perrin doesn't have enough to do as it is in the first six books, I'm not cutting his coolest stuff.

Amazon is really at fault for the casting issues - the scheduling they want to do for seasons makes no sense. People need to work, and waiting months to know if a show is picked up creates these conflicts. Seems like this has been improved over the last year or so. The Thom actor is great and him coming and going isn't the end of the world. He does that a ton in the books. Doesn't hurt that he's a pretty perfect look for my minds-eye idea for the character. Re: Callandor - IMO, it's a perfectly cromulent thing to drop if the goal is eight seasons, particularly if all of S3 is going to be TSR. I remember being bummed how little it was used along the way considering how it was an entire book spent to acquire it. I think we learned from Ingtar that if a something isn't given it's full due, it's preferable that it's just dropped.
