Are you guys HYPED for the Mistborn movie?What's the next film you'd like to see in the Sandoverse?
>>222488983Based
Is Mistborn the drinking copper coins gives you superpowers one or the bridge slave carrying miner wars one?
>>222488938I hope the Mistborn movie is a success so that we get Stormlight Archive movies just because I want to see the trainwreck in motion.
maybe he should finish his 10 book epic like Steven Erikson did?
>>222489048Mistborn is the drinking metal one. The slave wars therapy session one is The Stormlight Archive.
>>222489081Anon...
>>222488938I think unironically that something must be done about garbage like this.All this shitty, fucking moronic fantasy series that all you marketing and no taste, book tik tok faggots are pushing, needs to cease.There must be some kind of consequences for this bullshit. You can't keep doing this shit.
>>222488983kino, ludo and high lit all in one. Mormonchads win again
>>222489061Stormlight is already confirmed for a epic streaming series ala HotD
>>222488938Not for a movie. Sanderchad shouldn't settle for anything but a tv show.
>>222489081Mistborn Era 4 (the space opera) will be the end of the CosmereThe current schedule is Mistborn Era 3, Stormlight 6-10, Dragonsteel (who knows how many books), then Mistborn Era 4.>>222489716Mistborn's a trilogy. SA will be a tv series with 10 episodes per book. That's the current plan with Apple at least.
>>222489627You WILL get literally who best seller fantasy(read: harry potter but DARK and MATURE and the main character HAS SEX and there's A CHAPTER where the main character GETS TORTURED so it's not FOR CHILDREN) book series with billion dollar budget adaptations and you WILL like it.
>>222489496Holy fuck is that a lot of words. It better be good for that many pages. I liked the dark tower so im on the lookout for new literary sagas to get lost in. Ender's game and ender's shadow were great. I still haven't dipped into this one.
>>222489771I thought Dragonsteel was the end and the it was a prequel regarding Hoid, Adonalsium & Yolen?
>>222489081There's a lot you can criticize Sando for, but speed of writing is not one of them.
>>222488983Jesus that is so fucking badI'm glad I don't read this crap
>>222488938This dude is seriously fucking annoying because he obviously watches too much anime but the type of hypocritical cuck that hates the "problematic" parts of anime and wants it to be gayer and more diverse. What a fag.
>>222489840Correct, but Dragonsteel can't be the end by the fact that it's a prequel. The story ends when Scadriel starts burning Atium as a pseudo-Spice Melange for FTL travel to conquer the rest of the Cosmere
>>222489832>It better be good for that many pages>There's SEVEN PROJECTED FLASHBACK books
>>222488983Sanderson has a lot of a really cringe humor but this one really wasn't that bad.
>>222489915I meant the last ones published in the cosmere sequence.
>>222489941no, he said Mistborn Era 4 will be the last published/written books.
is there really a mistborn movie AND a video game too?
Amateur hour’s over.When will the real kino be adapted?
>>222490019That's the same book as Sanderslop which is the same as Bakkerslop. They're all the same slop and they all have prostitutes with hearts of gold that cuck the nice guy protagonists (but that's okay). It's uncanny. Like all these numale fantasy authors came out of the same cuck factory.
>>222489929Stephen king had only two in the dark tower series.
>>222488983>had a jaw so straight it made other men question if they were.If they were what? Is his jaw making them question if they're straight or question if they're men? Is the implication that the other men are lusting after him and his perfect jaw, or are the other men feeling brutally mogged?
pagespammer could be herestay safe, anons
>>222489091the right one sucks, i aint reading all of that
>>222489881>>222489496I understand he writes a lot, but it's spread out. I remember him saying on a podcast that Stormlight will finish in the 2040s maybe which is some serious "I'm up my own ass" energy. Lock the fuck in and finish your 10 book epic like Erikson.
>>222489909He got a very severe case of we must be better men™His earlier books are hardly Abercrombie, but there is some semblance of edge in them, but that all got filed away until it was just current year approved edge.
>>222490060I don't read that slop eitherI do read King's standalonesBut I do not trust any men that writes a fuckton of books of his own lore, that's fanfiction autism tierSerialized stuff only works if you have a known battery of ghost writers that keep things fresh and with different points of viewLike The next Generation star trek or the Animorph books. You have some stink between the gold, but you know it's not one brain cooking it all
>>222490212That is quite a viewpoint you have but the dark tower series is badass fantasy that got me into reading as a teen.
>>222490227I would say you are survivorship biased towards anything as a teenThere is no series of books that "makes teens not read anymore"
>>222490212yeah anon you're the autistic one in this equation...
>>222490183That seems to happen to everyone in those circles. I don't know if they actually believe it or are just pretending, but they usually end up canceling anybody else brave enough not to bend the knee so fuck them anyway.
>>222490294>Would you rather read 500 books of 1 guy that all talk about his world and lore and characters?>Or would you rather read 500 books of 500 people that all talk about the same world but with different styles and each one adding to the lore (and also keeping to other people's lore somewhat, as long as it fit the world)>I rather not read 1 guy's autistic neverending world>Y-you are the autistic one then!!!Ok buddy
>>222490019I've had so many of my friends tell me this book has some of the best prose they've ever read in fantasy. Even outside of the highlighted cuck box, I am unimpressed.
desu the metal stuff would make for a very cool action movie but not very poggy on my HDR OLED like the new capeshit that has more lighting effects
>>222490345What are you even trying to say you dumb sperg. It's his own IP. He created it. Of course he's gonna write the books. Goddamn spergs I swear.
>>222490068question if they wereas in, did they exist?maybe they vanished into the ether upon realizing
Even reddits fantasy community is too embarrassed to be a fan of this guy.
>>222490453I do not trust any men that writes a fuckton of books of his own lore, that's fanfiction autism tier
>>222490300The fantasy publishing industry made a concerted effort to purge anyone who didn’t toe the line and gatekept anyone else from coming in.The ones who remain are either too big to risk pissing off, spineless enough to be bullied into compliance, or got their foot in the door before the purges and stayed under the radar
when there's tons of haters on 4chan calling something r*ddit you know it's good, like rick and morty
>>222488938I'm eager to see and laugh at how they are going to do Ruin's larp voice in Vin's head.For what it's worth, it was an irrefutably clever device, and it was obfuscated very well due to it being on a page. But in live action that shit is either going to be very stupid or will make it obvious that it's not just her "self-doubt."
>>222490661Sanderson up until Oathbringer was a good popcorn fantasy writer, and him being prolific in a time when the established writers were all following Martin’s example was a breath of fresh air.His writing simple got worse with Oathbringer, likely due to him being more and more surrounded be poisonous sycophants that enabled his worst habits. Being prolific also was less of a unique trait, since there are now plenty of self published writers that have very similar output rates, and while they’re hardly high art, neither is he.
>>222490802Who is the best "popcorn fantasy" author right now? Is there one?
>>222490019>author just scammed the bunch of people and fucked offLol, I remember when people seriously believed that third book is just the end of prologue for a "real epic series".
>>222490068>this guy was so manly and masculine it made other men question their own manliness and masculinity. There you go.
>>222491556Why are so many modern fantasy books literally just elongated prologues.
>>222491503It's going to be me when I publish my book next monthI wish
>>222488938There's no way this shit is real right anons?
>>222492686I only read the first half of Mistborn 1 before I decided his work is not for me, so I can't comment on whether or not that is in the book, but given what I did read, I could believe that it is. Incredibly bland prose style, characters, dialogue, action etc.
>>222492686It's genuinely no surprise marvel addicted zoomers turned this guy famous
>>222491556I wonder if there are real bets on whether this or Winds of Winter will release first
>>222488938It's funny how you can instantly tell from the way a writer looks that his writing is fucking trash.
>>222492771Martin proved he at least has the capacity to write, even if he refuses to write what people want him to. If he gets a stroke of inspiration before a literal stroke, he could well get something out.Rothfuss has done so little that his former agent has publicly speculated that he plagiarised the original books and ran out of stolen material to finish them. I can’t imagine how much of a cunt you have to be in order to piss off your agent that badly.
>>222492878your initial impression of my favorite author?
>>222494261Looks pretty based. I might check his books
>>222488938I'm just hyped for the inevitable SNL parodies of Sanderson's youtube videos.
>>222489496>90s authors we'd wait two or three years between books and a long one was over 200 pages. Robert Jordan was unprecedented at 500 pages for a fantasy novel.>Nowadays the average book on Royal Road is 800 pages and they're cranking them out twice a year.If Dungeon Crawler Carl succeeds the next wave of adaptations will be insane. Try to imagine the pitch meeting for Defiance of the Fall. "For the first 300 pages of the book he's alone in the woods killing hellhounds. Then we get a viewpoint chapter of some demons before he kills them all. Then he spends three weeks killing monkeys."
>>222489901That book is a bit of a curveball. It was written as a gift for his wife and wasn't supposed to be released commercially until she told him to do it.
>>222490608Very strange considering how over the top horny 80s and 90s fantasy novels were. Xanth novels were bestsellers and filled with naked children. The Cross Time Engineer the guy was constantly having sex with 14 and 15 year old peasant girls and "Oh, it's the 13th century so it's perfectly okay."There was an interview on youtube with a guy who'd handled manga licensing for Viz and then Del Rey talking about catching shit from a female editor over Mahou Sensei Negima and all I could think was "You guys published a book named The Color of Her Panties. What the fuck ground do you have to stand on?"
>>222491895I'd call it Surf Dracula syndrome but it's been going on since the 80s.Though at least with the 80s and 90s you can see it as the writer trying to sequel bait so the publisher would give them another advance.
>>222494902everything was horny back then. fantasy and sci-fi alike were full of fetish shit of all kinds. the dune sequels are full of softcore porn. sword of truth's main antagonists are literally a BDSM fantasy. heinlein wrote a book about fucking his own mother.
>>222494873Reminds me of how John Ringo mentioned online that he had a book he was writing just to act as containment for all his awful fetish ideas so they wouldn't pollute his other books, and people insisted he publish it.Main character rescues two teenage girls from kidnapping in the first 50 pages, and then they both fall in love with him, and then he essentially rebuilds Rhodesia in the middle of Afghanistan.
>>222494816all that RR stuff is like those shounen jump mangas that theoretically go on forever, until they no longer sell. it's just incessant filler that doesn't go anywhere, fuelled entirely by aura farming. it appeals to a certain kind of audience, I guess.
>>222494988Sanderson himself has said the series he'd most want to get an adaptation is Dragonriders of Pern, and in the first book the woman mindrapes a guy into fighting a duel for her, and then later on in the book there's this weird scene where they have sex with each other because their dragons are in heat.I think Sanderson just wants it made so he can go "See, this is what Fourth Wing is ripping off!"
>>222488938Unironically thisIt's the best book he's ever written
>>222488983keked
>>222490042>Get conned into reading Bakker>Gay porn, hentai-tier rape fic, unironic self-insert Jesus allegoryFucking hell no wonder /lit/ busts in their pants for it.
>>222495029I've read the first three or four books of DotF mostly to fill time while I'm at work. Its kind of crazy how "Disregard bitches, gather aura" the main character is. Also the power scaling is so fucked that Superman would be considered low D-grade.
>>222494988Sword of Truth was so shit but the bit where Richard gets sent to BDSM witch jail and learns to suck the strap blew my fucking balls off.
>>222489771Era 2 was comfy>>222489909Sanderson is a devout Mormon, he just grifts redditors with le feels and ohmymentalillness shit. They get upset when they find out his real world views.
>>222494261Based bug autist, I've only read the apt series, how's the rest of his stuff
>>222495295children of time is great, the second book in that series is pretty good, third one kinda forgettablethe tyrant philosopher series is overall decent but the second book is extremely kinocradle of souls is probably my fav of his though it's kind of weirdoverall he writes a shitload of books and does a wide variety of stuff so there's probably at least a few books of his you'll really enjoy
Who has time to read these 12 volume 1000 page fantasy books?
I'll never forgive Sanderson. Not only did he rape the WoT book series, he also shilled the awful television adaptation.>>222495098>Get conned into reading Bakker>Gay porn, hentai-tier rape fic, unironic self-insert Jesus allegoryYeah Bakker's great.
real niggas love Gavriel Kay
>>222495127I thought the first couple of books were alright. though, I haven't re-read them, and read them as an early teen. they were indeed interesting books to read at that age.
>>222495416Bakker is David Gemmell for blackpilled reddit nihilists.
If someone tells me they enjoy Sanderslop I consider them to be mentally deficient.If someone tells me they enjoy Rothfuss I consider them to have an extra chromosome.What I'm saying is... there's shit out there worse than Sanderslop. And from what I've read (maybe half of way of kings and even less of mistborn) Sanderson's drivel seems better suited for television or video games, anyway.
>>222494261I remember reading one of this guy's books and it had a romance between a starving psychic ethiopian nigga and a stronk white sister of battle and that kind of tipped me off as to what sorta guy he was.
americans are really, really bad at writing fantasy
>>222489091>>222495416I cannot believe this dude gets to dictate writing classes. The fantasy genre is proper fucked
>>222495464Nah, the Second Apocalypse is weirdly white pilled. Did you self insert as Kellhus or Cuckamian and suffer NTR-shock?
>>222495631don't reply to anyone who describes something as "reddit", they have nothing worthwhile to say
>>222488983What does he mean by straight jaw? Is everyone else's jaw just crooked? Aren't all jaws straight, naturally?
>>222495624He's like a human slop machine. He's the reason I'm less fearful of AI slop. It can only get better but this guy's been doing this shit for years at this level of quality.
>>222494816>If Dungeon Crawler Carl succeeds>IfI'm pretty sure that thing has nearly 200 million hours listened on the audiobook and even more print copies sold, that shit is absurdly successful for how little it gets talked about. LitRPGs are going to replace the MCU. Are you ready for dungeon fatigue?
>>222495587i don't remember much of that in his stuff, could just be gw meddling
>>222495711Bro, the AI are being trained on sanderslop. If anything this will accelerate model collapse
>>222495836AI somehow mogs its master then, despite the excessive use of purple prose and unnecessary dashes.
>>222495836>>222495965AI improves at least, Sanderson's writing has actually declined since his early days.
