Now that you mention it, I could see a decent movie being made of Elantris, provided proper care is taken. And I remember seeing somewhere that Brandon thinks that Warbreaker would make a good movie, as the magic on Nalthis is very visual in nature. Those two books are self contained enough that it is possible to do them justice in a 3 hour movie. I just don't see it going as well for Mistborn or Stormlight, which feel like much broader scope stories (and are also much longer than the other two mentioned). I also am just partial to TV series over movies as a media. But I do agree with you that if your points are met, then we will probably get a decent product, if not a great one.

I am so with you there. I especially think that Stormlight would lend itself very well to a Game of Thrones style tv show, with the multiple POVs and locations around Roshar. I think this would be the best possible scenario for a Sanderson adaption.

I've always found it's better for me to consider adaptations as completely separate from their original works. Different things work for different mediums, and so, as long as the movie is good on its own merits, I won't complain about deviations.

How could I forget about Waxillium? That name fascinated me for weeks.

That's totally fair. Mistborn was my favorite until I read Way of Kings, and now I go back and forth between Way of Kings and Words of Radiance. Lots of good to come for you, I think!

Hi! I also just started reading the Cosmere a few months ago, and I think you will really enjoy Way of Kings, especially if you are into the world building aspect of sci-fi/fantasy. What is your favorite out of the Sanderson you've read so far?

I love cookies! Never met a cookie I couldn't trust. It's honestly a toss up between Way of Kings and Words of Radiance. I love the Stormlight boys so much. And most of my friends who read Sanderson haven't made their way through Stormlight yet, so I'm looking forward to talking about them here.

Hey. I just finished reading all the Cosmere books, ending with White Sands, and I can't get enough of it. I'm here looking to share the love and overanalyze the texts with everyone!

I identify super hardcore with Jasnah. My career boils down to sitting by myself reading technical books and doing research on things the vast majority of people wouldn't even think to care about, and in my spare time I dabble in philosophic discussions about the existence of God (I'm an atheist). I always try to push emotions aside so I can apply logic to a situation (probably too much so), and I would absolutely kill some muggers to teach a lesson about philosophy (maybe kidding, probably not ).

I've always been a fan of Raoden, even when I found out the correct pronunciation and didn't like it as much as my wrong way of saying it!
