Sanderson is /tv/ approved now.
>>
>>217641482
he has full control over the writing, casting, and creative choices
on paper this should result in good adaptations but we all know he's going to get bogged down in dumb shit and the resultant shows will be mediocre
>>
>>217641549
>>217641482
Stormlight is the most embarassing cringe fiction ever written. A true fucking endurance test. Truly nonsense of the most Reddit tier. Sanderson means well but he's a fucking imbecile and a retard.
>>
I want them to green light the Starsight series. Pretty exciting read

fuck this gay shit i want a mistborn vidyagaem

>>217641681
he's a mormon and i don't think he's ever written anything more explicit than handholding, he even uses smurf swear words
>>
Didnt Sanderson fuck up the last book with modern lingo and 'woke' bullshit?
>>
>Tolkien is too stuffy
>We need to make fantasy modern
>Write shallow man child fantasies or girl boss fiction and everyone raves about it

Modern Fantasy literature is dire
>>
>>217641482
I just hope they don't fuck up the casting like The Wheel of Time. Seriously, I am still pissed off.
>>
>>217641482
Wow, if I was 14 I might care about this
>>
Is this the series where the girl is barefoot most of the time?
>>
>>217641963
I don't see accurate casting happening, basically everyone in Stormlight is asian and in Mistborn there's a slave race underclass genetically modified to be squat ugly drones
>>
excited for mistborn, haven't read stormlight yet
have some hope that apple picked it up and not netflix or prime
>>
>>217641482
Does Apple have a good track record with scifi? What's the budget like?
>>
>>217641963
if it's stormlight archive, most of the cast are already brown and swarthy so the only way they could fuck it up is if they picked the ugliest people possible
>>
>>217641549
eh
we will have to see
sometimes being too autistic about his property will just mog it down for tv and movies

they usually have decent production value

not the best character, Szeth

Pretty sure they explicitly say that while they were like that, generations of interbreeding has made the distinction between the two groups almost completely disappear
>>

I think asians in SA are safe

Mistborn might have some race changes though
>>
>>217642207

where the hell are they going to find that many asian jews?
>>
>>217642125
Sounds good, i'm cautiously optimistic then
>>
>>217641895
the last one i read had kaladin inventing depression and half the book felt like star trek technobabble wank about the magic, which seems to be the way his books are all going eventually
>>
>>217641549
Sando is a Mormon but a leftoid, don’t expect him to fight race swapping if execs say to include it

Cool what does this post have to do with Cosmere?
>>
>>217641482
I liked the first Mistborn book quite a bit, but the other two were kind of a slog because of the autistic magic system explanations every page. I could definitely see the films being kino due to not being bogged down with that shit. I haven't read Stormlight Archive but apparently the last book was dogshit, so I don't know how that will go.
>>
>>217641549
His books already come pre-pozzed. Mormons (aka white jews) read the tea leaves and new which way the winds of hollywood were blowing. Mistborn is feminist slop about le evil political elite, poor brown people and the mutt skaa heroes. Stormlight is about mongol-coded (((knights))) filled with homos and a mistreated dark skinned slave race that has good rhythm. He even has racemixing and special racemixing hair types. You would be really pressed to somehow pozz these series even more.
>>
>>217642072
the heroes will be swarthoid/mongol rape babies and the antagonists are black skinned rhythm people.
>>
>>217643269
He's series are already brown in terms of characters and brown in terms of concept. Mistborn is a society of elites repressing the lesser masses who are subverted by mutts who have their magic (skaa)
>>
>>217643309
Everything that anon said, faggot.
It's fucking garbage.
Even Sanderson's fans think Stormlight is awful now.
>>
The writing and story of Mistborn is super bland and lame but the magic system should look cool visually, with the pushing lines and lots of shooting around at high speeds
>>
>>217641482
>Apple TV show
Ok that's fin-
>Apple Movie
Oh no...

>"The deal is rare one, coming after a competitive situation which saw Sanderson meet with most of the studio heads in town. It gives the author rarefied control over the screen translations, according to sources. Sanderson will be the architect of the universe, will write, produce and consult, and have approvals. That’s a level of involvement that not even J.K. Rowling or George R.R. Martin enjoy."

very cool

Ok so what was the point...?
Sanderson will make it just as pozzed as the most gender confused writer in Hollywood anyways.

Stormlight is potential kino. The Bridge Crew scene.

>>217641482
Good.
It's going to be a career-ruining clusterfuck, and is sure to be garbage. Since I hate Brandon Sanderson and his faggy fans, this is good. It will make them embarrassed and they'll shut the fuck up a little bit. Same thing happened with George RR Martin, except in this case Apple is 1000000x more incompetent than HBO, so the series is even more of a lost cause.
>>
>>217641482
Vin will be black. Digits confirm it.
>>
>>217644266
A narcissist twerp like Brandon Sanderson will not be able to improve the series by being involved. He's not even a good writer; he fails in his own medium, so think about just how much more incompetent he'll be giving directorial notes?
You think this is a good thing, but it's yet another massive red flag that this dipshit and his dogshit series are going to be horrible. Brandon Sanderson can't write, he can't direct, he doesn't understand themes, his stories are shallow and meaningless, I could go on.
The only way a television series could be fucking *SAVED* is if that retard was unable to meddle with it. As it stands, it's already over. It's going to be shit because it was already shit, and Brando Sando can't improve upon it, he can only fuck it up worse.

Would much rather have a Gentlemen Bastads TV series, the book is pretty cinematic, you can paste most of the dialogue verbatim and it will fly pretty good. It's even pre woke'eified since most of the Camorri characters are supposed to be like darker Italians.

Also, is anything up with the Zelazny Amber series that was supposedly in the works by Colbert?
>>
>>217641482
Mistborn, and Stormlight? Sounds like some shit written by an edgy kid on deviantart. I speak for all of us when I say that we shan't be watching that.

>>217641681

>>217642125
I thought every one of those shows were garbage outside of Dark Matter and to a much lesser degree Silo.

Anyone read the sequel series to the original trilogy? is it any good? Mistborn was decent I felt, least in terms of the magic system which is why I think Sanderson really wants to make video games of his series

Someone once said if YA Fantasy is diapers, sanderson is pullups and I feel that's accurate
>>
>>217646055
That doesn't mean anything. All sci-fi is inherently shit.
>>
>>217645466
If I recall Sanderson was mostly upset at himself he didn't write enough female characters so I expect genderswaps moreso than race swaps
>>
>>217645502
>career-ruining clusterfuck
Probably not far off. He would have been better off trying to get his YA stuff like Steelheart done as a show. Stormlight will be a disaster just like the books are becoming.
>>217645728
First book, ok. The other two turn into dogshit.
>>
>>217641482
I thought about reading these but maybe I should just wait for the adaptations first
>>
>>217641482
Fuck sanderson he let the WoT show go to shit

>Someone once said if YA Fantasy is diapers, sanderson is pullups and I feel that's accurate
kek that's very true. I liked him okay. Honestly I don't really get the extreme hate OR love (in adults) for him. They're mostly good, fun, unchallenging books. Not amazing. Like next step after reading Harry Potter. Didn't read the latest SA though, his word choice always bordered on cringe and it seemed like it got worse from excerpts I read.
>>
>>217647890
everything about sanderson's work is like a 6.5/10, and a 6.5/10 is worse than a 0/10 or a 10/10 when it comes to public discussion. books are worthless if they're not warping your perception of reality with every page
