I'm scrounging around but so far I've got nothing else. You took my idea (the 15th of November, the day (some) of the public got to see the show premiere

Probably re-watch the first 2 episodes (seeing em tooonight omgomgomgomg) and then the 3rd in a mega binge ?

Same. My fiancé has class Thursday night so depending on the exact release time I might have rewatched the first 2 right when she finishes class ?

There's a stickied thread the mods created to talk about the screenings as long as we hide spoilers in the spoiler text ?

I barely slept last night I'm so excited. 9 hours!

Fourteen today, going to skip the obvious one and go with the 14 Major Houses of Andor that eventually supported Elayne's claim to the Lion Throne

The Thirteenth Depository, holding the secret histories of the White Tower

Same I've always felt Egwene was far more conservative than Elayne. Elayne was the one who pushed the envelope so to speak, which is why I've always had a soft spot for her.

Ha, I always felt the opposite, although they absolutely both have their moments of boldness! It’s neat how folks can get completely different impressions on characters. I wonder how they’ll be in the show. Guess we’ll have to wait for next season to see them on screen together

Talk about attention to detail..

I love this so much. Such a nice touch.

I am 150% on board. No brakes on this hype train

I was playing the soundtrack and my fiancé, who listens to movie and TV soundtracks as her driving music, came into the room and asked "what's this from, it sounds cool". So it's got that official stamp of approval!

Amazon is all-in on Wheel of Time. Animated shorts that provide expanded backstory that can't be included in the show for narrative and pacing reasons? This is beyond my highest expectations for what we would get. I'm so happy. Can't believe this is really happening

Later on, if we do meet Abel again, we could find out, much to our amusement, that he's really /just like Mat/.  He's been telling his son...and himself...to look out for number 1 for years, but when push comes to shove and Emond's Field and his family is in danger, he steps up just as well as any man.

This is basically my hope for the rumored storyline for Mat's family, or give Abel a character arc where he comes the man we see in the middle/later books.

The eleven Sitters who illegally deposed Siuan Sanche as Amrylin (I had remembered it as twelve and was checking the books for confirmation for tomorrow's post and nope it was eleven!) 

I follow most of the actors on social media including Hammed Animashaun (Loial's actor), and I get the feeling that they are very excited for Loial's reveal.

Re: pillow friends, it's also a poor example because it's considered a childish thing you're supposed to grow out and of looked down upon if you don't. That's not exactly stellar queer representation.

I would love it if they changed Moiraine and Siuan's relationship to being real* but it falling apart as a result of their mission. Add some extra "I sacrificed everything for this" oomph

*ETA by real I mean "a romantic relationship with depth" not "pillowfriends"

Hi, I'm Mat from Randland 616.

Latra Posae lived in the Age of Legends.

Woah.

Not directly related to her but my thoughts went from "We're getting age of legends scenes" to "are we going to get to see the strike at Shayol Ghul?" Because that'd be something

I know it was posted on the News page, but I'm curious who is going to any of the early premier events on the 15th. I'm dragging my fiancé to the showing in King of Prussia (near Philadelphia for those not from the area) and I am very excited. Anyone else able to get passes, either in the US or abroad?

Yeah when people say these reboots are a failure, I think they mean to them personally so it must be a failure to more...  You are correct about the reception to She-Ra, it has been amazingly good overall.  

Right, just to be clear: if you personally did not like something, for whatever reason, that is completely fair and valid. I'm sorry that you didn't like something that I did, just like I try to feel happy that others like something I didn't.

But I am absolutely pleading for folks to stop speaking for others, or think that their opinion is The One True Fan Viewpoint. It absolutely is not. For example! I've headcanoned Egwene as bi since I read the series 20 years ago, so guess what: I hope they do make her bi! If it were done well, I'd be very happy with that decision! But I do get that this will clash with others' headcanons and so some disappointment would be understandable. But that doesn't make you a better fan than me, nor me a better fan than you.

The She-ra reboot was amazing. Even outside of the "Harold they're lesbians" thing, it's just an incredible story about trauma and forgiveness and learning to love yourself and... look I could literally go on about this for a while but I won't, so instead I'll point out that She-Ra and the Princesses of Power was a smashing success with both critics and audiences. If Wheel of Time got even a fraction of that success it'd be excellent.

Not sure why Moraines are so beefy. 

Well Cairhien is basically Fantasy France, they've had some, uh, interesting fashion choices over the centuries

The eleven main series novels of the Wheel of Time written by Robert Jordan. I hope they get Prime in Tel'aran'rhiod so he can watch this with us ?

Side note, do we have a total count on the amount of times RJ described Rand as "hard" or "like iron" in the series? Has to be well into the hundreds right?

Don't make a drinking game out of it, that's all I can tell you

Book 9, Winters Heart - One of my favorite WoT Books, even though many hate it for the slog.

That's a good one. As much as some of it was a slog, the Cleansing sequence might be the best climax in any of the books.

Rands 9 visions in Rhuidean 

 

Maybe my favorite scene in the whole series

Absolutely. And a great way to give backstory to both Rand and the readers that's organic to the universe. It's so clever and so well done

That wouldn't make any sense. With what would they try to invade the city full of Aes Sedai and soldiers? 

I didn't say it was a good idea! It's mostly what the episode title made me think of.
