  1. "Deep Enough That It" was the name of Fred's regret.
  2. Rysn isn't going to get any screen time, which ruins everything involving Chiri-Chiri, the Battle at Theylan Field, and the creation of the Fourth Bridge (the airship). Szeth will be painted as sympathetic from the start instead of slowly becoming more likable like he does in the books. The Heralds will come off as jerks instead of people struggling with the aftereffects a millennium of torture. Taln won't be nearly as awesome. The whole emphasis on palindromes will go out the window. They'll make a sequel to the Elantris move before the actual sequel comes out, causing a divergence in cannon and a ton of internet arguments as people who have watched the movies don't realize that there are books. Every single sanderlanche, which in the books are carefully moderated cascading scenes, will become Marvel-style third act CGI crem.
  3. This regret earned Fred the title of Fred the Regretful at the annual planet destroyer trade show.
  4. Mostly because it's just so silly. There is cannon but you don't need to know it and you can even just ignore it when you want.
  5. This planet's explosion was actually caused by Fred.
  6. Yes, but not intentionally. TPBM has a song stuck in their head right now.
  7. Someone needs to go revive TLT.
  8. No winning for 18 hours!
  9. Oh, yeah, definitely. My life needs better writers. TPBM is currently experiencing something that nobody outside of their very niche hobby would understand.
  10. I think that's part of the occupation of Urithiru.
  11. When you have arguments over the exact difference between a nerd and a geek.
  12. I think it's more likely to be made as a Secret Lair than a full set, but I'd love it if WotC made Cosmere EDH precons like they did with Dr. Who.
  13. We have a sighting of @Toothless of Shinovar! (Or @Toothless In Shinovar. I'm not sure.)
  14. No, it's Part Of The Narrative (Wait, is that a Redshirts reference?)
  15. All of the complex character arcs rely on internal monologues, which are hard to do in movies. I worry that the representation in the Cosmere (Rlain and Renarin, Renarin struggling with autism, King Relu-na, Ranette and Jaxy, Drehy, The Sibling, most of the Alethi nobles being black, etc.) that isn't incredibly essential to the plot will be cut a la Owl House, making the whole series just... worse.
  16. Yes. TPMB is currently feeling nostalgic.
  17. Nope. TPBM has pet chickens.
  18. A couple of rules for villains: 656. While it is required to obey rule 644 above all else, remember that smart villains always mislead the heroes when they villain-splain. Don't ever give the whole truth! 657. Whenever there's a huge ritual to summon a Legally Distinct Tentacle-Faced Eldritch Fish Horror (or any other creature of mass destruction), there's a 50% chance that whoever is leading the ritual will be consumed by the summoned creature just to underscore how powerful it is. 657a. To avoid this, command the creature as soon as it gets summoned. Don't waste time laughing maniacally! If you do, your chances of survival decrease dramatically. 657b. Avoid summoning creatures of mass destruction at all if you're not fully sure that you're the main villain. 658. "A stupid villain makes threats. A smart villain offers services." This is good advice. FOLLOW IT.
  19. Imagine being tired.
