    I dunno. They could also just do an anime battle style announcement like Vin lifts her arms up and goes "Copper!" while a guitar solo wails in the background.



    Oh my gods, make it this! That would be both hilarious and awesome.


    There are eight ( or sixteen )metals, and that's before you get into combinations, which counters which, push/pull, weird little names for people who specialize, and the vast mass of the audience not knowing what 'pewter' is or that brass and bronze are two different things.

    I don't envy the writers room.

    And a London bobby appears. :p


    "Pewter!"

    "But i hardly know her!"

    If they have a non shit way of showing burning metals mistborn ...


    my skepticism is both deep and wide. At least WoT had the simplicity of a basic easy to visualize air/fire/water/earth/theForce/blackstuff system. MISTBORN...
    "ooo ooo look she's burning TIN!"
    "no you idiot that's PEWTER"

    Started The Regicide Report today. Two immediate thoughts.

    1- I missed Bob and it's good to be back with him.

    2- This book would have been much harder to release before now due to events around a certain monarch.


    Same/agreed/true.

    In a producer's shoes i would be suggesting they make an original story in the same general 'Cosmere' setting and stay the hell away from the books. Do a show, on TV terms, write books in it later.

    Even the simpler books, Mistborn, Warbreaker, Elantris, are not ripe for adaptation. I don't care what your fx budget is, showing people 'burning metals' or breathing Breaths or drawing pictures is going to be boring, 'inaccurate' to the extent that anyone cares, or just look silly. And if they simplify or adapt it too far the book readers are going to lose their minds.

    There's a lesson in WoT and i am doubtful anyone learned it.

    So what are we thinking here? Hugo Weaving as Kelsier and Natalie Portman as Vin?


    Too old. Ariana Grande is the obvs choice for Vin.

    Kelsier, well, Ryan Reynolds of course... having Deadpool play your male lead is a gimme.

    Unbound Worlds now redirects to the PRH website, so that Top 100 fantasy link no longer works. Here's a very similar one though: https://reedsy.com/discovery/blog/best-fantasy-series

    Because some mobile browsers don't resize and it makes the thread unreadable.

    Just out of curiosity, why is it necessary to spoiler big pics on this forum? They go off the page and don't cause the text to unwrap, and they get resized in mobile browsers. I don't mind doing it; just asking.

    There is a word to describe that pic, I just found one in the depths of my convulsing brain. It's DISTURBING but in a funny way.

    If you're keeping score, I think my conversation (in a WoT thread, I think) with that one noob-troll about how to get banned from Malazan is worth a few. (i.e. "I recommend telling Malaclypse he's a douchebag.")

    When the new order rises, lazy posters will be among the first to be purged.

    Good call with the spoilers tags. I didn't want to add them because it makes it extra work to read posts :D
