    This song is a tribute for Disney, but also a tribute to Bridge Four. ( @Faceless Mist-Wraith still working on Cold as Ice) 

    Let’s get down to business, to lift up the bridge!

    Are we to be martyrs, when we run the ridge?

    You’re the saddest bunch I’ve ever met

    But you can bet before we’re through

    Bridgemen, I’ll make a man out of you.

     

    Slaving for the lighteyes but rebel within

    Once you find your center, you are sure to win

    You’re a storming, pale, pathetic lot

    And you haven’t got a clue

    Somehow I’ll take the slave out of you

     

    I’m never gonna lift the bridge

    To Damnation go those lighteyes

    Storms, was I a fool in war for cutting lords

    Kaladin’s got me scared to death

    Hope he doesn’t see right through me

    Now I really wish for some ale and gin

     

    Bridge Four!

    We must be swift like the racing Fleet!

    Bridge Four!

    With all the force of an Everstorm!

    Bridge Four!

    With all the strength of a chasmfiend!

    Mysterious as the dark side of the Plains!

     

    Time is racing toward us till the next bridge run

    Heed all commands, and you might survive!

    We’re unsuited for the rage of war

    So kneel down, and pray to gods

    How could I honor men such as you!

     

    Bridge Four!

    We must be swift like the racing Fleet!

    Bridge Four!

    With all the force of an Everstorm!

    Bridge Four!

    With all the strength of a chasmfiend!

    Mysterious as the dark side of the Plains!

    Perhaps I'm alone, but The Emperor's Soul is my top anticipation, since there are so many artistic and philosophical aspects to explore, which I really can't resist :P

    I'm also dying to see any forms of Stormlight adaptation, though it might be harder to be done right.

    Wax and Wayne as TV series would be awesome.

    Wax and Wayne is going to be an interesting

    Way of Kings (and Stormlight in general) is far too long and complex for a movie. We need a tv-series with a HUGE budget to make it justice. 

    It will be very hard for me to be optimistic about a Stormlight movie. Any other Cosmere book, yes, but SA should be television. 

    they could make the first movie "The Way of Kings" in parts. like make part 1 part 2 so on...

    so then they can put in the details it needs

    And the amazing abstract landscape and cultures

    Stormlight would be incredible onscreen because of the diverse and creative locales/costuming/characters/flora and fauna, not to mention the fact that Brandon's narrative style in the series is quite cinematic. It would, however, prove extremely problematic to film in any format other than 1) a very lengthy movie series, or 2) a television series with an outstanding budget and production team.

    Mistborn would be hard because of how certain elements of allomancy are experienced visually or emotionally in the first person in a way that would be difficult to relay onscreen (I remember Brandon mentioning that if Mistborn were to be a movie, the nature of how some of allomancy works would have to be tweaked).
    For me, though, the biggest hurdle in filming Mistborn would be the violence and gore, which, if filmed faithfully to the books, would earn the film a hard R rating. Some things are much more palatable on the page than on the screen, and while I love Mistborn's tone, I can't picture the story as a film without either watering down a LOT of the key action or embracing a very dark, not-family-friendly tone, which I don't think Brandon really wants to do.

    Elantris would be a fantastic movie, in my opinion, but I could picture it flopping if it didn't get a great director with a passion for the world/story. If it were cranked out in classic Hollywood-style for a book-to-film adaptation, I could see it falling horribly flat (e.g. the Eragon movie). Elantris is a very different type of fantasy story, and I think it would take a special director to make it work.

    White Sand would seem to be an easy candidate for film adaptation, but maybe that's just because it's already being presented visually in the graphic novel format. The leap wouldn't be that much further to the silver screen. 

    Warbreaker would be difficult, I think. Some elements (like the system of magic on Nalthis) just seem more plausible on paper than how I can imagine them being presented in a movie.

    Shadows for Silence and Sixth of the Dusk would both make outstanding short films or TV episodes.

    Of course, the fundamental and underlying problem remains: How do you do the Cosmere justice on screen without confusing everyone who isn't already super invested? Tough to balance out accessibility and faithfulness.

     

    Yeah Way of kings would be awesome to watch which they already are making if you read my earlier comment

    yeah. 

    but DMG entertainment is making a way of kings movie first which I'm still existed for so I guess we will be seeing the stormlight archive before Mistborn.

    Reading all of this makes me want to throw a Cosmere inspired dinner party.
    But I have approximately 0 local friends who are into the Cosmere so I guess I'll have to eat it all myself 8)

    They should have cosmere restaurants at signings or vidcons

    or they could have a cooking competition to see who can make the best cosmere food

    Yeah XD

    Even though Mistborn probably has the best chance to become a movie I think Elantris would be better. The big reason is that it'd be pretty difficult to film allomancy . Another big reason is that everything in Mistborn is black or grey, including the plants. :huh: Things like that wouldn't be too hard to fix but then it' be drifting more and more from the books! :D

    yeah.

    If a cosmere movie is made I believe it would be best if it was Elantris or Mistborn. I believe that these two would translate best into a film. I don't think it would be possible to shove an enormous story like the Stormlight Archive into a movie, but you never know. :D

    Man, but if they make a cosmere movie basically 99% will be green screen!
