I don't think it's unrealistic that there would be people who are evil for evil's sake considering the cosmology of the universe. If we had a primal force of chaos that was manifested in our world, it would likely have many followers.

Season 3 (and beyond) speculation and random thoughts
mogi68 posted a topic in Wheel of Time TV Show
WARNING: SPOILERS for the whole series Rumors on the street are that Matrim Cauthon is going to be involved in the Tanchico storyline in Season 3. Some people have suggested that they are going to combine the Tanchico storyline with the Ebou Dar storyline from the books. This makes little sense to me unless they truncate the plotlines for all of the other major characters as well. This is driven (IMO) by the possibility that the show will not be renewed for a full 8 seasons, which has not yet been greenlit. If Rafe is told to wrap it up by season 4 or 5, then they will need to move quickly, and combining Ebou Dar with Tanchico will make it easier to do so. I really don't think we are going to get Mat in the land of the Finns. What will happen in Season 3? I think that these things are reasonable to assume: 1. Nynaeve, Elayne, and Mat in Tanchico. Find ter'angreal stash with the bowl of the winds (domination band maybe?). Nynaeve overcomes her block, gains a nemesis in Moghedien 2. Rand is in the waste. He does the Rhuidean thing, gets the majority of the Aiel on his side, defeats one of the male forsaken. 3. Siuan is deposed. 4. Perrin returns to the Two Rivers and defends it from Shadowspawn and Whitecloaks. He meets Faile, who intended on hunting for the horn in Manetheren. What happens next in a potential Season 4? Cairhien is not at civil war in the show and has a stable government (as of the end of S2). Caemlyn has not yet made an appearance, but apparently Morgase has been cast for S3 so we should see it at some point. Sammael has apparently been cast. Is he Lord Brend in this universe? Or does he take the role of Rahvin? I think that Rand will take the Aiel over the Dragonwall early in season 4 and either take the Stone of Tear or conquer Cairhien. Will Egwene be in the waste? She really doesn't "do" a lot in the Shadow Rising besides tag along. We know that she is Rafe's favorite character, and her storyline is often prioritized by the writers. Could it be possible that she will be involved in the tower storyline in Season 3? Unknowns: What is going on with the Dark One? Is he bound by seals as in the books? The ones keeping the Forsaken imprisoned were all destroyed by Ishamael at the end of season 2. -
Production value on WoT s2 was pretty good. The acting is good. The primary issue is the writing and directing. They have directors with little experience filming action scenes and it shows. Disappearing archers, fighters who appear out of nowhere, etc. Ciaran Donnelly is doing more episodes in S3 so hopefully the fighting scenes are a little more refined

"The next Game of Thrones" is the problem
mogi68 replied to Spider Spence's topic in Wheel of Time TV Show
There was a training scene filmed for S1E2 but it didn't make the cut -

No smiles? Jaret Byar ova here -
What will happen to Moiraine in future seasons? Thanks to @Jaysen Gore for asking the question in another thread.

Synopsis for that chapter:
-
Maybe the real Dark One was inside us all along
-
My prediction is that Mats memories from the horn will fade after the heroes are gone, and then he'll have all these holes in his mind (like in the books). He'll hear about the ter'angreal in Rhuidean, and that will be his motivation for going with Rand. Maybe Mat will feel guilty for flaking on Rand in the foregate in S2 and then subsequently stabbing him with a possessed dagger and that will also factor into the decision
-
What does she need to learn?
-
I generally agree with the OP's predictions. However, I think that Siuan will die in the coup and not survive. Moiraine and Lanfear scene at the docks IMO

WoT Season 2 Episode 8: What Was Meant to Be
mogi68 replied to SinisterDeath's topic in Wheel of Time TV Show
The two bits I really liked about the episode: 1. "I will never serve him. In a thousand lifetimes. I know that, I'm sure of it" 2. Rand looking up and instantly being transfixed by Elayne white phosphorous 🤪 -
WoT Season 2 Episode 8: What Was Meant to Be
mogi68 replied to SinisterDeath's topic in Wheel of Time TV Show
I'm sad we didn't get a good ol melee with Rand vs the Betrayer of Hope. The fighting scenes fall really flat for me, generally speaking. Too many quick cuts and you can barely tell what's going on. I hope next season has directors with more action experience. -
WoT Season 2 Episode 7: Daes Dae'Mar

Siuan seems perfectly lucid in E7, there's no way all of her actions were a product of compulsion. -
WoT Season 2 - I WATCHED ALL THE EPISODES TOPIC
mogi68 replied to SinisterDeath's topic in Wheel of Time TV Show
Based off the teaser, I think Rand and Elayne meet in E8, and that she will take the place of Min from the end of TGH. It would also reflect a glimmer of their meeting from TEOTW (tending to Rand after he is wounded) -
WoT Season 2 Episode 7: Daes Dae'Mar

Does your TV have an "HDMI Black Level" setting? I couldn't see anything in dark scenes and then I discovered that in the menu and now I can actually tell what's going on -
WoT Season 2 Episode 7: Daes Dae'Mar
mogi68 replied to SinisterDeath's topic in Wheel of Time TV Show
I really don't like what they did with Rand. On his knees/shielded and bound for half the episode, moments after "whatever happens, face it on your feet". Come on man -
Ads don't really bother me, gives me a chance to get up and grab more honeycakes without missing anything

To me it looks like the lead horse has the same gear as the WC's from season 1 But you could be right. It's a pretty blurry shot and potato quality 🙂
