My new head canon is that Ishamael is ace because all he cares about is ending the world and he has no time for love.

Shageletic posted:I hope they get into his rational that it's only sensible to be on the DO's side because the Dragon Reborn needs to win every battle to keep the world going and the DO only has to win once. The DO winning wouldn't even make him happy is such a cruel irony. The DO wanting to remake the pattern and not destroy is just trading one unhappy existence for another to him.

The parts with Egwene, Lanfear and Ishamael I loved. The fight I couldn't get over the kind of goofy choreography of it all. None of it felt like it flowed well. It did not do anything to sell how dangerous damane actually are in battle and you get shots that just feel like everyone is standing around doing nothing. The stuff in Cairehian was just kind of boring. I hate everything they have done with Lan this season and hopefully it's over with soon. An episode with some high highs and some low lows.

The writing and acting and costume work for Ishaemael and Lanfear has me thinking maybe swearing to the shadow is a good idea.

Was Logain able to see Rand drawing in Saidin? Because it seemed like it, but that just might be TV being what it is and he couldn't actually.

Devorum posted:Moirainne was also able to see Verin's weaves earlier in the season during the Myrdraal incursion. Yeah, I'm still thinking she is shielded not stilled though. I think he said he saw his strength in the power not the Ta'Veren-ness in the show. Also in the books when he saw Rand in Camelyn it was before he was gentled not after like the show.

The Seanchan storyline is always going to feel bad because it's incomplete. The end of the series is a geographically divided land with one half a free people and another half a slave state. A loose confederation of states brought together for common cause against a greater threat. It's setup a lot like America was post revolution and feels like a reckoning was due, but will never see it through now due to Jordans death. I think if Jordan lived we would have seen the end of the damane, but now all we can do is speculate.

Yeah Ingtar I don’t know why they even included him or that scene. It barely resembles the scene from the books and serves no real purpose in the show just cut him from the runtime and use those minutes more wisely. If you don’t set up his character and his arc at all it doesn’t really land with any weight. Feels like they included it just as poorly done fan service. I’d rather they just cut that plot instead of doing it poorly.

ChubbyChecker posted:eh I don't think I would call it borderline. He prepared speficially so someone could finish it due to knowing he was dying. It was his explicit will. I would say that only extends to finish through the last battle though and not the outrigger novels that had no notes for them.

seaborgium posted:They're gonna have to drop the whole trial, or massively rework it anyways. Morgase could make the decision she did because in the book technically Perrin killed Whitecloaks inside Andor. The same thing might be doable using some overarching treaty all the nations follow regarding mercenaries, but that seems kind of iffy considering the state of the world even prior to all the chaos starting up. Can't wait for the next trial for the Whitecloaks he killed outside Andor.

The body swap thing was because of the balefire crossing I believe and then the lady at the end (Nakomi) is a servent of the creator and helped do it. Similar to how Shadar Harin was a special like servent / avatar of the Dark One. The thing about the former damane helping Rand die was just her giving Rand the big bag of money it's kind of stupid. The pipe lighting is probably Rand having some kind of limited control over the pattern now. He existed outside the pattern briefly and got some new powers because of it.

I remember reading that theory back when it was made and was not at all surprised when it happened. I expected it to actually be true. The years of theorizing was the best.

It's called The Last Battle but it's not actually the last battle. It has happened before and will happen again. Herid Fel lays this all out in book 6.

CainFortea posted:Is that really evil though? Semirhag was censured before the bore, and she was actually causing pain and enjoying it Was this before the bore or after? Because once the bore was made it was still around 100 years until the actual war of the power. She defected to the shadow after being told she could swear on the binder or be severed according to the wiki (which might not be correct because hey its a wiki) so her being caught for it was after the bore.

I think a lot of people just wanted to see their favorite moments from the books on screen, and the show isn't doing that. Those moments get cut like the flicker flicker scene, or they get done poorly like Ingtar sacrifice or Lan preparing Rand to meet with Siuan.
