Wheel of Time Discussion/Appreciation

[jmoz]

Spoiler:

The absence of Elayne and her overplayed political situation. Rand would have taken care of it before breakfast. I actually like Lan minus Nynaeve, well early Nynaeve.

This probably should be its own thread but...Favorite Characters...GO!

Mat
Lan
Faile
Moraine
Elyas
Gareth Bryne
Rodel Ituralde

Spoiler:

Verin after finding out her sacrifices, she is great.

Avienda a bit
Shaidar Haran, I know bad guy but the way he makes the Forsaken squirm makes him soo much more bad@$$.

Forgot, but about the movie, LOTR's Peter Jackson really tried and relatively succeeded in keeping with the original source material, with added emotional touches. If they do that sorta with Wheel of Time, it'll likely be good as long as they don't hack away too many portions and focus too much on Hollywoodized additions/tweaks. But come on, a visual depiction of Wheel of Time, I don't mind it one bit, would be great to see.

I'll come back later on my list of favourites. But on the movie, I believe they could do it well. LOTR was three books with a total of over 1200 pages, given that WOT averages 600 pages or more, a movie franchise would go ballistic, We've had 6 Starwars movie's plus one animation, and how many Startrek movies? About 12 I think

Bela was a good choice, she doesn't say much, but never complains

[jmoz]

Ahh forgot Siuan and Thom. They're are too many characters!

Yes to all of Mat's band and Noal (Jain Farstrider- can't believe I forgot him).

I found some artistic pics on the net yesterday, I'll post some here soon. Some of them are very good, gives you a feel for what may come in the movie. Oh and one of the pics had Angelina Jolie portrayed as Nynaeve al'Meara

[Oranos]

Yeah. It's pretty clear that when Rand fails to save the world, Bela will pick up the slack and crush Shai'tan.

Tut tut tut.

Spoiler:

Bela is the Creator. Narg killed Asmodean.
