The N&Ns won't be happy until every character is the DR. Actually, it's not a bad idea. Liandrin DR and Alanna DR travel the Ways to meet Matt DR and Perrin DR, only to be captured by Padan Fain DR, and rescued by Nynaeve DR with Egwene DR. Sadly the only one not DR, is Rand.

Other things I can't forgive, like the way Moraine was introduced at the banquet hall in the two rivers, where Lan busts the door, introduces her, steps aside, and she enters mysteriously.

But this is the VERY thing that films do. All films, and especially all good films.

Perhaps Egwene will be the Super DR and Nynaeve will be the Ultra DR, yes that works it's all coming together now.

If only...how about a world with a forum in which every ridiculous prediction was punished with, e.g. one less lifetime post allowed, waiting, of course, for the ridiculous prediction to be proven wrong. Now this just might be hyperbole, something I usually endorse.

That's just how a these women think. It makes no sense for the green to have this conversation with her when she knows she is not going to changer her mind. Aes Sedai only try to debate when they think there is a chance that they will change the others mind

Wow there's a lot to unpack here. First, I pray that this is a gender reveal. Second, you have proven that there are no AS posters here (despite their names) because no one changes anyone's mind. But third, I disagree that any of that is true.

Also, I don't understand where they are going with the whole subplot of his father being a womanizer in a town of 14 people

Funny. The way to do it, and this will enhance your life, is to let go of "purism." You liked the Books as did I. By necessity Amazon can not be the Books. It's a re-visit to the WoT world with a different POV. Judge it completely on its own merits. Despite what some N&Ns say, it's the same world, inhabited by the same characters. Details change and there are motives for that to accommodate the new POV. Will you give it 100%? Will you give it 0%? Probably something in between. I like it, but I don't give it 100%. See above my disagreements with the 100%ers. Don't hold Amazon up to a standard you would never use for other movies, restaurants, or people.

Same, I think most people just said "don't jump the gun on a rumor", but I was never saying "that is absurd and never going to happen."

Except that it was fine, and the story goes on.

The series already fully rewritten(worldbuilding,lore and characters). On this point we would expect multiple DRs/one of them will be  Rand/. 

You might be right. The others will be Frodo and Roose Bolton.

Logain says his past lives are telling him how to do better and Moraine tells him he's insane.

This part is true. How does it square with the whispering voices in Ghealdan. Oh? It doesn't. It all goes to show, there's voices and then there's voices.

Many of the N&Ns are hopeless cases. We went through the exact same thing with the LoTR movies. Jackson would make excursions, add, and subtract, and, yet, when all was said and done, he created a satisfying epic, that most consider a masterpiece. My crystal ball sees some current N&Ns on a future forum saying, "This is an abomination. Why can't they do it like my beloved WoT did?"

If you just elaborate a little, I don't have to assume. Please help me understand what it is you are trying to say.

Every episode will have plot development, 5-8 and 9+. When does Padan Fain gain the Dagger? Dunno. I was estimating episode 25 but that's a shot in the dark. Let's say 17 +/- 10.

Just now, dog421 said:

I don't quite follow. It seems like you are saying you don't see any plot development coming any time in this season.

When you assume...

I'm wondering if they're expanding that to be a common symptom of madness for male channelers, and if so, does that mean the named woman is a past Logain? Maybe even a past False Dragon?

Ann Elk's theory is that the named woman is Lanfear, before escaping Shawshank. Her partner is Ishamael.

Poor Perin is going to spend most of his life after the Last Battle answering for all the killings he did before the last battle.

Not to mention all the rest of the combatants. Remember after WWII when all the GIs were tried for killing Nazis?

Exposition doesn't make sense in this context, in this way

Screen-writing 101. Exposition is a dirty job, but someone has to do it.

Also, how crazy was it that the Forsaken were talking to Logain through the taint?? 

What were once vices, are now habits. It's crazy and it's transcendent!

I was still guilty.

What is he guilty of? Friendly fire? Involuntary womanslaughter? Wait until after the Last Battle to bring him before the magistrate.

Why are the aes sedai and warders explaining to each other how things work with aes sedai and warders.

It's called "exposition."

Episode 25? This going to be an 8-episode season

Unless they start renumbering the episodes every season, there just might be some plot development in episodes 9+.

She has been getting death threats. 

In a world in which trying to save lives results in death threats, ofc. Calming down the rhetoric about whether Nyn is shallower in the Book or in Amazon, ain't gonna help.

Just now, Sabio said:

Perin and Egwene are the two I would say never changed and stayed super annoying throughout.  

Perrin definitely changed from a country bumpkin to an adept in the Dreamworld. Egwene remained super-annoying which was her super power. It's mandatory for the Seat.

3 minutes ago, Sabio said:

Then it turns out to be your wife just seems rather criminal not to mention Perin then covering up the crime by making everyone think an innocent Trolloc did it.

It's not a "crime" and it's not mandatory to advertise it, in a situation where you are running for your lives. I know many N&Ns admit to all their faults, but some are more closed-mouthed.

Another homage to LoTR, both Book and Amazon:

The Dagger to Matt = the Ring to Frodo.

It will interesting how they portray it, and how long before the reveal.

Just now, dog421 said:

People in the show wouldn't, except Lan who told them to take nothing, and Moraine

Except Lan and Moiraine, and anyone who knew about SL, which is everyone within 100 miles, and everyone else in the world, by reputation. The ones who don't, just don't know yet, where the Dagger came from. That should be revealed around...episode 25 or so.
