That's a very good point Cannoli Send a noteboard - 06/07/2019 05:06:38 AM

Dr. Strange depicted "magic" in a somewhat weave like manner. The mechanics will be different for WoT, but the CGI style in Dr. Strange was good. And not that expensive, relative to what they'll have to spend to show the effects.

Jordan even gave the colors for the different flows in an interview, or maybe the old Question of the Week thing.
Honestly, if the handle Dragonmount well, they'll buy themselves a lot of capital as viewers know what things will look like once the characters get powerful.

Actually, if Moiraine is going to be the priority character in the early episodes, they should be doing strong channeling right off the bat. If the focal characters are the kids, it might make sense to not show the flows they can't see, but if Moiraine is the main character, it makes sense to show weaves.

The lesson from GoT is as long as you have good source material, you shouldn't rush production - 27/06/2019 12:02:59 PM 1377 Views
By that standard, they have 6 good books and a pile of shit thereafter - 27/06/2019 06:52:10 PM 1213 Views
You devote an amazing amount of time over a pile of shit *NM* - 28/06/2019 01:48:48 AM 573 Views

I would be very happy if that were the case - 02/07/2019 05:22:25 PM 1036 Views
