    Per the update he posted today, Sanderson is going to be spending his full time writing the first draft of a Mistborn screenplay through May (not the first time he has written a screenplay of Mistborn specifically, either) and is excited less by "control" per se as "partnership"...based on his...

    Sanderson has a few words to say about this here:

    OK, so the Sanderson Fandom has begun micro-analyzing the Producer and her production company, Theresa Kang-Lowe of Blue Marble Productions, and what that cna mean. She is a major veteran talent agent, who a few years ago went off on her own to make a new talent agency slash film production...

    Yeah, the fall of Kholins and the journey through Shadesmar are overall important, but I would agree that something would need to change for a TV show. Actually expanding Kholins and it's importance would seem to be the way to go. The Cognitive Realm is weird enough that I don't really see how...

    Out of curiosity, is there any element that particularly jumps out at you as pointless...? I did not find any of it boring, so I am honest to God not sure which you are referring to specifically.

    Actually, we do already know that he is capable of that. He has done quite a few co-author info projects with a number of other writers at this point, and the comic bokm White Sand is, at best, a mixed bag...but Sanderson let another writer seriously change his work and even be positive about that.

    While I largely agree with you, there is a pretty significant chance for this to blow up in Apple's face as @Ruin Explorer says. Think of it like this: I have heard there are about 2 million people who buy Sanderson's books regularly (not every book, but...regularly. Sanderson just hit the New...

    Actually an extremely delicate operation, considering how much of the books are actually surprisingly load bearing. I can sympathize with people bouncing off of it, and I think it goes to criticism of a certain artficiality in Sanderson's writing...but one of the cool things about the series is...

    They have done box sets for some of the Setting books. They did a premium map collection for the FR books last year.

    Does Anyone Care? (Cosmere RPG)

    The CosmereRPG suvreddit is full of that. Lota of photos and fan art, too.

    Yeah, honestly that is a pretty major concern. He is a film buff, but he has no production experience. This is what actually irritates me: I know that I would like more Sanderson novels, but these shows/films are an entire unknown. I...honestly have no idea how this was your takeaway from...

    Ever tried the Dynasty Warriors series?

    What videogames are you playing in 2026?

    I have watched a four year old play Breath of the Wild...it can be very simple in practice.

    What videogames are you playing in 2026?

    Simple, yes, short in terms of the gameplay loop yes. The whole can take a while.

    I'll take the compliment, but I LOVE Shallan, her parts are the best, particularly when the books really dig into her Dissociative Personality in a realistic way. Sanderson loves using modela of other stories, particularly incongruent combinations. Mistborn is pretty clear, he was taking...
