Am I bad in saying these scenes seem to ritualized, so to speak and I'd like a more personalized scene of Egwene being asked to become Nynaeve's successor?

Who knows?

For him to actually break through?  You would think pretty big for a cosmic embodiment of evil/chaos/destruction/whathaveyou, but when Rand pulls him out during AMOL, he's described as small as a bird.  So how big would that hole have had to be?  Or was there something else binding him that had to be destroyed first?

Power is power.  Male or female, they need to enforce order.

Maybe

He's active on Reddit. 

So at one point, Liandrin starts using the power on Rand to get him to tell what he was wiping off the walls (though why she needed him to do it is anybody's guess). About a half a second later, she drops the power and Moraine walks in.  Given what we know about women sensing the power, how come Moraine didn't sense that Liandrin had channeled very recently?  Even if she didn't know exactly what she had done, she probably would have had some questions and I doubt that she didn't know she had been doing more than channelling light.

I think you need to have the physical abuse in the series just to show what power does to people regardless of gender.

I find it hard to believe that it is simply that the WoT crew is perfect at stiffling all these efforts better than LOTR, GoT, etc ever were.

I would actually disagree with that point given the dailytrolloc, various leaks.  It may not be on a formal basis, but we're finding out about a lot more directors than we think.

Do we have confirmation that he's even on the cast other than a stray tweet that puts him in Prague?

So I've been thinking about the Flame of Tar Valon weave and what it's effects.  We know that it and balefire are opposites.  Well, if balefire destroys people before a particular moment, would it be logical to surmise that the flame might be able to create a person ahead of that particular moment?  Could it transport them to a different age or even a different possibility.

The apples and grass thing is not a Ta'veren effect, it is a form of treesinging practiced by the Aiel during the Age of Legends. Rand gained that ability when he regained LTT's memories.

Didn't Brandon say that Rand didn't know the song and that the Tinker's wouldn't have been able to learn it anyways, though?  I saw that as being just a little bit over the top.

I could almost see this looking like a Highlander "Immortal sense" in terms of camera frames and thematic sounds.

Oh come on. Asmodean as the Wedding Singer.

What's funny is, I think he'd be perfect for Asmodean.

I want Adam Sandler

I'm going with Marin on this one as well, which makes me wonder who they're setting up to be Bran.

Marin would be my guess. 

Thom, Tam, or possibly Ishamael.  I'm leaning in heavily the direction of Thom.  Major enough to attract his talent, yet remote enough so that you don't have to spend that much time on him in the first season.  Although if it is Thom perhaps we don't want to look too closely at that multi-patched cloak of his

I don' know if this was covered in the books, but did they ever cover why Suian didn't have Logain executed after he was gentled?  I don't think the other nations were that okay with him still walking around as a "guess" of the White Tower, example or no.  Did she somehow sense that he was still ta'veren pre-Min's viewings?

Quick question, do you have Saidar only "visible" when from the POV of another channeler, or do you drop that.  And what about sensing the ability.  Go Highlander route?

Yeah, I think the casting dump is coming.

Yeah, really! Such a good actor to kill off so soon.

 

 

Maybe he likes it.  After all you can't get stale if you're pushing daisies by the end of season one.

Thank you.

So, most if not all of the ta'veren we see are either of the light or light leaning.  Given that ta'veren are products of the Pattern and the Pattern is neither entirely of the light or the dark is it possible that there are ta'veren who are dark leaning?

Or when Lan gives her an impromptu swimming lesson.
