I’ve just read it starts Friday 19th. Please be good. Please be good. Please be good…

I can't understand why they all hate Moraine. I have a serious girl crush on her. She's fabulous.
SoupDragon · 18/12/2021 16:40
I think it's her aloofness and impression of superiority. Of course, she is superior because she's right!
SoupDragon · 18/12/2021 16:40
She's not in it to be liked, just to get the job done.

@Campervan69
They don't trust her. They don't know her, and aes sedai are not fully trusted in lots of parts of the WoT world.

I think I must identity with her. Just need to work out how to channel the one power now then I'm set.... 😄

I'm sure many of you will have seen this, but here's a fantastic behind the scenes from episode 7. The special camera for the cold open and the clever set design for the ways is really interesting.

I enjoyed watching that - the set design for the Ways was so simple (relatively speaking 😂) yet ingenious!

@SoupDragon
Yes it's a really clever idea, and means they're able to alter them for future scenes using the ways. There's a behind the scenes for each episode, talking about costumes, props, set designs etc, it's really interesting.

Thanks for the brilliant behind the scenes video. Loved watching those.
Who has seen the last episode?
I loved most of it but have I Wish I Hadn't Read The Book Feelings about lots of it, and serious burning rage about a couple of things.
I think I would have loved it had I not read the books so many times.

I've seen it. It was very underwhelming. I think they had too much to do and too little time to do it in. 
It's a shame, as the previous few episodes have been amazing, but the last one left me a little flat.

As a non-book reader, I really enjoyed it. Lots of conflicting decisions for each character, a deeper understanding of motives, some hope and a bit of desperation.
As with GoT, I now can't wait until series 2 so have just ordered the first 3 books!
SoupDragon · 30/12/2021 16:51
I've watched the behind the scenes footage for each episode now. They do explain why they made certain changes to the book when adapting it for TV.

Non book reader and massive GOT fan here. I'm 4 episodes in and enjoying it very much. I wish I'd read the books as I need more world-building and background.
But the costumes! I want to wear that shit. I hate fashion, I loathe buying clothes. I want woollen dresses and cool cloak things. I guess I'd get funny looks in Morrisons?
Zampa · 31/12/2021 08:49
You would probably be ok in Brighton @Cooroo!
