For me the cringe moments were Lan screaming out in... mourning? (seriously, what the fuck),


Rafe Judkins did a breakdown of the trailer,and he acknowledged that this is a deviation from the book Lan, but that they wanted to show that an Aes Sedai and Warder not only feel each other's physical pain, but emotional pain as well. Still not sure what causes such a dramatic outburst from Lan of all people, though.
and the scene of an Aes Sedai being burned at the stake and the whitecloak collecting rings (presumably of the witches he's killed).

That's not even close to cannon.


We don't know that she's actually Aes Sedai, or if maybe they kidnapped her and took her to an abandoned shedding or something.
Either way, this isn't canon, but it's a good change for the show to make Whitecloaks more than a mere annoyance for Aes Sedai. Though hopefully they don't show the Whitecloaks being too successful. At that point, it becomes hard to believe the Aes Sedai let them survive and thrive for a thousand years.

I still fear this will end up being The Moiraine Show.

This has as much chance of happening as Game of Thrones becoming the Ned Stark show, I think.

It's going to be the Woke of Time, you'll see *NM* - 28/10/2021 10:23:48 PM 119 Views
The video of Rafe Judkins commenting on the trailer is also worth watching. - 27/10/2021 09:19:11 PM 356 Views
Yeah he definitely seems very knowledgeable about the series - 27/10/2021 09:40:43 PM 273 Views
I liked him way back on Survivor. I guess it's good he didn't win - 28/10/2021 10:18:44 AM 246 Views
The truncated Third Oath is just sloppy whatever the justification. - 28/10/2021 06:56:54 PM 359 Views
Trailers truncate. That's nothing new. *NM* - 28/10/2021 07:15:24 PM 121 Views

Ugh - 28/10/2021 09:11:57 PM 270 Views
True! - 28/10/2021 09:16:14 PM 284 Views

Umm isn't the reason for the wording obvious? - 28/10/2021 10:01:39 PM 267 Views
Though clever, this explanation isn't very satisfying. - 29/10/2021 12:00:17 AM 294 Views
I don't think so - 29/10/2021 01:26:46 AM 259 Views
Yeah, that was silly... - 28/10/2021 07:50:47 PM 246 Views
I'm most concerned by the Aes Sedai being burned at the stake by white cloaks. - 28/10/2021 11:47:51 PM 334 Views
Don't forget the one they managed to hang. - 29/10/2021 02:38:46 AM 318 Views
