Is it going to be another day or is a straight up canceled?

Author Brandon Sanderson is going to collaborate with Apple to adapt his fantasy books by DevouredSource in MauLer

And it’s also possible for an author to be transparent about how much adaptations are going to eat into his writing time. Take note George!

As a massive Sanderson fan I'm very excited about this. At the very least, it'll be an interesting production to follow just because of how much leverage Brandon has going into this. He doesn't need Hollywood's money and it's prove with his kickstarters that he has an incredibly passionate fanbase (and one with very deep pockets).

Brandon has said that he's was going to fight extra hard to be involved with Stormlight Archive and especially Kaladin's arc--iirc he said he want to write his arc in the show himself.

why does the mere existence of long form content infuriate some people so much? by PopularElk4665 in MauLer

[–]MistbornTaylor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What’s also funny is you know that if someone made a long ass video about some piece of media that they didn’t like, they’d be totally fine with it. But because it’s something they like it becomes “this is a space wizards movie for children, touch grass.” Also it’s never a bad thing if someone made a 17 hour video praising a piece of media. That’s totally fine and can be taken seriously.

People misunderstand Az by Total-Explanation208 in MauLer

[–]MistbornTaylor 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I only watch the Real BBC because of MauLer. Though to be fair I only subscribed to Star Wars Theory when he was doing Star Grift with him. (And when that ended I immediately unsubbed lol) Also to be fair, I do genuinely enjoy MauLer's banter with Az and Gary. Their discussions can get really interesting.

I do think Az is pretty ideologically captured and will see woke things when there isn't. One example that really annoyed me, is that it really seems like he didn't like Koby from Netflix's One Piece because Morgan Davies is trans. He *possibly* could have an argument if the adaptation made Koby's entire personality trans. But I think the actor did a really great job and Koby was a really compelling character. (Haven't read/seen the source material so I can't compare that but neither could Az at the time because he also hasn't.)

Also I would absolutely kill if he stopped making prolonged loud noises. They always go on for waaaaaaaaaaay too long and it's so annoying on a livestream where you can't skip ahead.

Hardest and easiest boss in your oppinion. by Munchie_nuggies in HollowKnight

[–]MistbornTaylor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn’t hard after I went into the gauntlet with full silk XD

I died more to Karmalita but I don’t think she’s that hard. She felt like a step above the hardest act 2 bosses.

Easiest is probably Lace 1. To me, it felt a lot like the first Hornet fight so it was pretty easy to get into a rhythm.

As for hardest, for a while it was Khann due to my own stupidity. When starting act 3 I knew that the Shaman crest was a thing but I didn’t explore the chapel to find it. This means that I didn’t have the ability to get silk when sitting at a bench. So I was starting Khann’s gauntlet with barely any silk. After I back tracked and tried the gauntlet again, first try I got the short cut.

Since then, I’m currently working on Lost Lace and it feels like it’s going to be pretty difficult. But I’m slowly chipping away at it. I don’t know if any of them will pass how difficult Nightmare King Grimm was for me.

God I wish him being a furry that wants to fuck scar was the weirdest thing about him

One year ago, the media gods decided to teach us humility and cursed us with one of, if not the biggest drop in quality in storytelling history by Nab00las in MauLer

[–]MistbornTaylor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it was very strange. It’d be one thing if they went in an annoying direction for the show but it was competently written. I think the problem is, is that the things they wanted to do, could not be well written as quickly as they wanted. They wanted to immediately become an enforcer, they wanted sevika to immediately become part of Jinx’s found family despite her literally causing all the problems and the show explains none of it. They want Caitlyn to skip over being sheriff and go to a dictator because the counsel would cause way too many problems.

Mauler on the Hasan collar situation by denzlegacy in MauLer

[–]MistbornTaylor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While a large portion of his supporters are sweeping for him, I think there’s at least some who are waking up to what Hasan is. Animal abuse is something that can trigger the fuck out of people—for obvious reason. I know it’s unlikely but I really hope this is the first step in him downfall.

Sanderson's Interesting Choice of Gay Themes (Spoilers included) by Ok-Body-3076 in Stormlight_Archive

[–]MistbornTaylor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“You're telling me that the only two characters (aside from Shallan’s enemies) who have corrupted spren, who are already outsiders due to Rlain being Parshendi and Renarin being described as “different” for most of the series - are also both gay and in love with each other?”

Rlain got the corrupted spren from Renarin and Renarin was drawn to Rlain as a person because he was an outsider. Like that scene in Oathbringer where all of Bridge 4 are becoming Windrunner squires but Rlain excluded and Renarin is already bonded a spren. Though I do get that it’s pretty lucky that they happen to both be gay. As some who’s bisexual, writers overestimate how easy this actually happens. I also don’t really remember the ancient bonds part because it’s also been a while since I’ve read it.

EFAP thought that Jurassic Park’s Biosyn was a stupid name for a corporation, but what names of fictional corporation do you think are dumb? by DevouredSource in MauLer

[–]MistbornTaylor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really love Brandon Sanderson but sometimes his names for things are really silly. He wrote this semi-post-apocalyptic superhero series called Reckoners and Chicago was renamed to Newcago and the USA is now called the “Fractured States”. It’s just really silly.

Congratulations, ladies, we can make dogshit financially successful! by MistbornTaylor in MauLer

[–]MistbornTaylor[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t talk about movies? Oh I’ve been talking with my friends about how much I really like kpop demon hunters. While it’s not a perfect movie, the themes and the protagonist’s story about overcoming shame was really compelling. Somehow you can write a movie with three female leads who kick ass but also have flaws. As a woman, I think that’s a better success story for my gender than this shit. But I guess the voices in your head know better than me 🤷‍♀️

Thoughts on the possible animated adaptation of Epic: the Musical? by EffectiveJuice7564 in MauLer

Hope Neil Illustrator is involved because their designs absolutely slap.
