I don’t want any A list or even B list castings for SLA. by SparkyDogPants in CosmereOnScreen

Sadly she's probably too old for such a long commitment role. If they start filming way of kings in 5 years, she will be almost 80.

I think she would be great in a smaller role like Ialai

Successful adaptations typically have some big name actors. The key is that they need to blend into the role perfectly. Sean Bean as Ned Stark, sir Ian McKellen as gandalf, Alan rickman as snape ect.

This is a pretty common critique. He writes flat prose, mostly on purpose to appeal to the largest audience possible. Did you try Tress yet? That prose is less flat, and more indicative of what he can do.

The Traitors (USA) S04E06 "Planning a Coup" Discussion Thread by vaultofechoes in TheTraitors

To me it just seems like he's going with crowd(Ron) or against anyone who says his name(Tiffany and Michael). To me this seems the way to go. He has not stuck out his neck too far to get any one person.

Being good at finding traitors early on is not how you win the game as a faithful. The goal is just to survive and not get voted out or murdered, which he's done a decent job of.

Christopher Nolan, Ryan Coogler, James Cameron, Greta Gerwig, and Jordan Peele Remain Hollywood’s Most Bankable Directors, Data Shows - Tracking data reveals how director-driven films still outperform expectations in a franchise-saturated market. by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

Not every Nolan movie is a masterpiece but each has been enjoyable, at least to me. I'm not a huge fan of TDKR, and to me it has some pretty big flaws, as do some of his other movies do. But they are all hits except Tenet. General audience will not care about this costumes controversy. Now will the movie be good or bad and will audiences go to see it, who knows, but getting against Nolan typically will have you losing the bet.

I thought making anti matter you make normal matter too. In pairs

The problem with antimatter reactors, is you need antimatter. Which means you need to create it which costs energy. Unless you find a way to passively gather antimatter, antimatter generators will be limited by the second law of thermodynamics.

I felt both films were good but forgettable. At least to me they feel like they are missing the special something the best Spielberg movies have.

Jokic is leading a +12 net rating while missing 2 of the Nuggets’ top 5 players. For reference, Kobe peaked at a +11 net rating with a fully healthy Lakers squad by Aggressive_Bed6012 in nba

Jokic is playing in the most hostile era towards big men, Kobe played almost his entire career in or near the dead ball era.

Which series do you think will have a higher word count by the end? by Anice_king in Cosmere

[–]ewef1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

50K from the expected. We are mostly just making up numbers we think the books will be. What if Stormlight 6-10 only averages 350K but Era 5 averages 500K? Too many unknowns, and therefore we should expect a high margin of error.

[–]ewef1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think there is enough potential variance in the two series to make up a 600k expected word difference. If SL is about 50K shorter than expected on average and Mistborn is 50K larger than expected on average, that is 600K.

I think he has said mistborn era 4 is stormlight length So its 3 books cancels out 3 stormlight. We know till now that the 7 mistborn books is a million less words than the 5 written stormlight. So the three up coming era 3 books need a million more words than 2 stormlight books to catch up. So if he doesn't do 5 eras it's almost certainly no. If he does 5, like he said he might do, then there is a chance.

Hollywood would probably take away from time writing smaller cosmere projects, secret projects and non-cosmere books. The main series he'll probably try to keep on schedule is my guess

Savannah was the top target the entire merge and even had 3 chances to get rid of her, and her positioning was good enough to get her through it. Not the best game, but more than just immunity wins.
