Showing weaves will make the show look like Charmed

View original postDo you think that the CGI aspect of it with live action around it would make it...look cheesy? I mean, if you want to get down to it, it can get pretty tough to watch....

If the scene is about the channeling, for instance, Nynaeve's first duel with Moghedian, or a teaching scene, or maybe the Bowl of the Winds, I'd maybe switch to a non-real scene, like when Frodo wears the Ring, and then animate the weaves or the metaphysical results, like show the personal connections to the source and a shape trying to cut them off, representing the shield. What I would not do is show the weaves that form things like fireballs or bonds of Air.
For the TV show....which storylines should be sacrified?

That... Would basically doom the show right from the get go. The OP is a BIG part of WoT's identity.

I hoped the whole show would just be called "Falcon in the Snow".

There is no way Amazon will commit to 10 or more seasons

Unless it is a massive hit they will never commit to more than one at a time

I agree with Tom - probably the first season will already be combining two books.

The lesson from GoT is as long as you have good source material, you shouldn't rush production

By that standard, they have 6 good books and a pile of shit thereafter

We shouldn't assume they will follow the books very closely at all

We're all in agreement that Jordan purposefully changed Taimandred because he was mad, right?

I don't even know. First couple of books are relatively straightforward, but after?
