I believe Hoid, being ancient; goes where he thinks interesting things will be happening. If I was thousands of years old, I would find everyday life mundane so if someone says, “Hey! Have you seen what’s happening on Roshar?” I’d go check it out...
I think Mistborn would do really good on the silver screen... but I think (because there's just sooooooo much) that Stormlight would be a better TV series
Totally agree. Stormlight Archives could be the next Game Of Thrones - but with more magic and less sex. Haha. Just as much/more action and political intrigue though. My only concern would be it getting the big budget and top-tier CGI and set designers.required. World-class quality or nothing, you know. Mistborn done right and marketed well would appeal to the mass market in a big way. I'm so happy this is happening.
I would say there's a bout a 99% chance that SA or MB in TV or movie form would be awful...unless they're animated. The effects budget to make the magics look cool would be way more than I think would be possible for this.
Kyle Grounds the magic isnt very, uh, flashy? Like theres no giant laser beams or explosions of green fire or any of that shit, all theyd rlly have to do is make people glow a bit, and have some good light-stream effect for when the succ the light in. I dont think itd be that hard, but i would like to see it animated either way.
Hahaha Brandon got pretty obviously uncomfortable at 1:20 when the dude said the interview was about to get very romantic...Brandon Sanderson is on his way to being the rand al Thor of the fantasy author's world. I absolutely loved his work finishing the wheel of time, he did an amazing job. It was a great series to begin with but did start to get a little stale at about book 7 but he breathed new life into it. If the next seven books in stormlight archive are as good as the first three, it's definitely going to give wheel of time a run for its money. I'm seriously blown away by oathbringer. I read it and listened to the audiobook. If you have 50 hours to burn I would highly recommend the audiobook lol! The narrators are the same that did the wheel of time and are very very good at bringing different personalities to the individual characters. Great series so far!
(Cippy Speaking): See, I love Sanderson's work! And his finishing the Wheel of Time series makes me want to start it. But everybody tells me that it does kinda lull in the middle. Worth the time investment to get to Sanderson's ending?
G3EK there is a bit of lull but there's still a lot of things happening and a lot of information that comes into play in The last few books. still plenty of action but it just isn't as intense as the beginning and end, I guess you could say. But 100% worth it. If you like fantasy, you will not be disappointed that I can guarantee. I drive semi for a living and so I listen to the audiobooks now. They average about 40 hours per book. Took me a year to listen to the whole thing the last time lol! And that was listening several hours a day at work 5 days a week. But reading them took me far, far longer. the narrators of most all of Sanderson's books are Kate reading(for the female parts) Michael Kramer(for male parts) are absolutely awesome. I prefer the audiobooks because they bring a whole other dynamic into it and the characters really feel alive. I love the audiobooks because I can listen if I'm at the gym, cooking, mowing the law,etc etc etc...so anyway, sorry about my sales pitch for the audiobooks 😆
Absolutely! I don't know if you're strictly into fantasy... but I listened to the Martian audiobook recently and loved it. Also the fully cast World War Z audiobook is incredible.
Don't mean to sound rude by saying this, but yours is not a big channel but still you put up this video (the likes of which i've been looking for without much luck) really makes me glad
Jasnah on the cover of Oathbringer always looks like Morena Baccarin to me - especially if you use Baccarin's Inara Serra from Firefly. If Baccarin is cast as Jasnah, I will absolutely hide in the attic for a half a day until my mind begins to accept how amazing it is. For a week after I will suffer random laughter and flocks of imaginary joyspren. For years after I will rewatch it obsessively (but I would do that anyway).
Every now and then I’ll start thinking hey maybe I could get a part in this amazing series/movie, forgetting that I’m just a sad little Australian depresso espresso
Have preordered Oathbringer hardcover, still waiting for delivery........ Can't wait, passing my time with other books which seem nothing compared to Stormlight Archive, Sanderson, your writing is awesome, just please don't become Rothfuss!
I love that the interviewer said "You created a Cosmere" and not "The Cosmere", like it was an everyday thing. Not criticizing here, just thought of it as funny, haha
The main problem with translating these books into movies is the fact that basically nothing is filler. It's not like Harry Potter of some other movie where you can skip certain conversations or sequences. Everything in these books is needed to push the story farther so skipping a certain scene or conversation will no doubt ruin it.
The coolest thing about him that all the interviews or videos about his lessons I watched, he is like this in all of them. I can't say how much I appreciate his work and... really, everything about him :D
ren-AR-in?? That's how it's pronounced?? I always pronounced it ren-ah-rin. Which doesn't look very different but is completely different from how they said it. (Also, shall-ON and ro-SHAR?? Damn I've been getting even the simplest names wrong)
Visions... like Lehi. But the inverse obverse of Captain Moroni. The written word is corrupted. That last thing is actually pretty close to how the Veil distorts information here. It is why scripture is often mixed light and dark.
A) maybe he was trying to avoid spoiling it for people who haven't yet read it B) Calling him Wit is an easy way to refer to his role specifically in the Stormlight Archive, while Hoid can be him anywhere
Specialist in Failure I can see that but compared to Games of Thrones, Oathbringer perspectives are mild and keep the reader engaged without losing focus. Each characters perspective fills in a piece of the whole, whether it be in this book or the overall story.
Specialist in Failure I’m halfway through my second read through of Oathbringer, and I have to disagree. For the most part, we still stick pretty closely to the main three (ie Shallan, Kaladin and Dalinar) with a handful of other perspectives making appearances. To me, the interludes are used to great affect to foreshadow, show the world, get insight into other important characters motivations and so on. Had we been thrust into all these perspectives in the first book, it might have been overwhelming, but by now many of the perspectives we get if from familiar characters, which helps understanding immensely.
Stormlight is not even one of the more numerous povs. Other well regarded fantasy series like Malazan or ASOIAF has a lot more povs. Hell wheel of time has 1300+ POV at the end of the series.

"Now the interview is about to get real romantic" Brandon's face 😂
Roxanna Peterson that noise he made tho 😂
If the lights would've stayed dim a little longer....
NOPE DO NOT WANT DELET THIS
I definitely laughed out loud.
Extra manly mood lighting ;)
"I'm a bit too old to play Spiderman but I could be Kaladin..."
Kaladin is like...two years older than Spiderman.
And I look two years older than Spiderman ;)
G3EK fair enough
BTW, love your screen name
Haha thanks. I never really intended to use this account so I just went with my Tumblr URL because it was the first thing that came to mind xD
Yeah but kaladdin is also like 100 years older than Spiderman in maturity
Hoid...the Stan Lee of the Cosmere Universe.
I hear they both have mustaches too ;)
The "hero finds out they're super good at killing people" part of the hero's journey has always been my favorite
Roshar has hospitals! Just ask Taravangian...
Oh yeah, we'd looooooooooove to be in one of those hospitals!
G3EK Just don't think about Moelach... Or let the nurses get too close with those needles!
TaravangianCare
TaravagianCare is death care
"Please. _Please._ My surgeons are in Vedenar, an easy trip through the Oathgates. Let me bring them. Let me ease this suffering."
Shallan is drinking it in. Well played
One does not simply answer 'who is hoid'
Theo Perumal I can answer that with one word: complicated.
yeah it's more *_what_* is Hoid
Hoid is mememachine.
I believe Hoid, being ancient; goes where he thinks interesting things will be happening. If I was thousands of years old, I would find everyday life mundane so if someone says, “Hey! Have you seen what’s happening on Roshar?” I’d go check it out...
@@Drunkledore I'll do you one better, "Why is Hoid!?"
I just want to know if safehand p0rn is a thing in Roshar.
Sakata School of Trolling LOL
It is. Safehandhub.com
@@johnmorrell3187 safehub.com
You know it is. It has to be.
Abso.lutley
The thought of the Stormlight Archives and Mistborn coming to the big screen is like Viagra to my soul... And I'm only half-joking... LOLOL!
I think Mistborn would do really good on the silver screen... but I think (because there's just sooooooo much) that Stormlight would be a better TV series
Totally agree. Stormlight Archives could be the next Game Of Thrones - but with more magic and less sex. Haha. Just as much/more action and political intrigue though.

Mistborn done right and marketed well would appeal to the mass market in a big way. I'm so happy this is happening.
The only question now is "When??"
I would say there's a bout a 99% chance that SA or MB in TV or movie form would be awful...unless they're animated. The effects budget to make the magics look cool would be way more than I think would be possible for this.
Kyle Grounds the magic isnt very, uh, flashy?

No need to sell me! I've got a long commute so I listen to audiobooks a lot.
G3EK haha awesome! Great aren't they?
Absolutely! I don't know if you're strictly into fantasy... but I listened to the Martian audiobook recently and loved it. Also the fully cast World War Z audiobook is incredible.
where are all my Dalinar fans? B-)
"I don't want to be in any of my books. I like happiness" is what I heard from that answer.
DAT PATTERN COSPLAY! STORMS!
It was amazing!!
Don't mean to sound rude by saying this, but yours is not a big channel but still you put up this video (the likes of which i've been looking for without much luck) really makes me glad
We gotta start somewhere! Thank you!
I can see Lift challenging Kaladin to a dance off
She most likely won’t. Thaidakar on the other hand...
I always call him Branderson.
I just found the stormlight trilogy for just under $50. Stoked for the upcoming read! Can't wait for when I get to Oathbringer.
It's one heck of a ride, my friend!
Enjoy!
Jasnah on the cover of Oathbringer always looks like Morena Baccarin to me - especially if you use Baccarin's Inara Serra from Firefly. If Baccarin is cast as Jasnah, I will absolutely hide in the attic for a half a day until my mind begins to accept how amazing it is.

This book was awesome. Im gonna dive into R.O.W soon. 😊
This is more like it, decorations, costumes, larger venues, and more people overall who enjoy the series. Cool video!
I love that Brandon knows some Final Fantasy too. He’s at least played some of them if he knows about the reoccurring Cid characters.
Every now and then I’ll start thinking hey maybe I could get a part in this amazing series/movie, forgetting that I’m just a sad little Australian depresso espresso
I love his books. Awesome to see, that he is such a sympathic guy.
lol that laugh at 1:20
Have preordered Oathbringer hardcover, still waiting for delivery........ Can't wait, passing my time with other books which seem nothing compared to Stormlight Archive, Sanderson, your writing is awesome, just please don't become Rothfuss!
what do you mean with that ? i was thinking about starting with his books.....
I think he means... starts a great series and takes forever to finish it... we've been waiting a long time for the Third Kingkiller...
@g3ek ohh I see I hate hiatus too....
I need this stormlight!!!
I think it would be better as a TV series
Really good interview man, you deserve more subscribers!
Thanks Kenny! We just got started on the channel, so we can't be too upset. Rest assured we'll have more great stuff coming your way!
Love his suit jacket + t-shirt :D
Question...
Is Wit Hoid?
Yes
I love that the interviewer said "You created a Cosmere" and not "The Cosmere", like it was an everyday thing. Not criticizing here, just thought of it as funny, haha
1:20 the most awkward laugh I've ever heard hahaha
anyone else going through YT watching old, random videos of Brandon Sanderson?

Shallan is "drinking it in deep." Its Veil that does all the drinking
Oh man, I was at this event and it was a blast.
ive started on Mistborn now I can't wait for the next stormlight aaah
He's got a lot of great stories to tide us over until the next Stormlight!
Hasanah Coolcat, I want to finish WoT(the Sanderson books) before going on to Mistborn.
This is great
Irony us he wrote a magic the gathering book within a year of this video xD
I'm thrilled to hear Brandon loves drafting MTG! It's also my favorite format :D
Oh Brandon likes magic the gathering, two things I love brought together
Brandon is the man :D
Right?? He was great. Super humble, down-to-Earth, exactly what you'd want from one of your heroes!
The coolest thing about him that all the interviews or videos about his lessons I watched, he is like this in all of them. I can't say how much I appreciate his work and... really, everything about him :D
Brando sando is awesome
"I have touched sooo many spears..."
I think I should pick this up!.... need to learn how to read first....
Poor guy...
Not necessarily, I listen to Sanderson’s books as audiobooks.
I see you also are a good Vorren Gentleman.
I hope they don't ruin these books for film.....
6:18 I hear that!
I'm hoping, when the cosmere crossover comes the reconers will be there. 😜
3:51 - Span Reeds = Internet.
Patrick Henry email at least
Instant messaging.
More like telegraph?
Don't let this series stop at 4, keep it going, Robert Jordan style.
I'm listening to Oath bringer now. But Mistborn and allomancy, is my favorite story.
ren-AR-in?? That's how it's pronounced?? I always pronounced it ren-ah-rin. Which doesn't look very different but is completely different from how they said it. (Also, shall-ON and ro-SHAR?? Damn I've been getting even the simplest names wrong)
Shallan is the only one I messed up
That's one of the downsides of being American/British. When it comes to made-up names, you tend to read them as you would in English.
1:20 Brandon really just said 😆😳
Just realized that music is also used by Quest for the Janklords
Spoilers: it’s a real tear jerker
Ha. Ha that was surely the funniest Sanderson interview guys?
Wondering if the thing Brandon found fun that he did do something with and make money was infinity blade
Don't let them make it unless they do it right! They're going to scew it up!
Please make a movie/movies!
Where can I get these spheres?!?!?
EBay bro
@@RetiredPikachu007 Nope. Can't find them :(
LED Ball Lamps, search that in EBay. That's the only thing I know of that's similar to what is in the video
@@RetiredPikachu007 Thanks man!
Welcome bro
nice interview
Brandon switch to D and D.!!! We got good campaign going now: heroes of hylas. Come play with us man. Wed love to have you.
Pretty sure the MCU of books was done already, by Martin Goodman and Stan Lee
Visions... like Lehi. But the inverse obverse of Captain Moroni. The written word is corrupted. That last thing is actually pretty close to how the Veil distorts information here.
It is why scripture is often mixed light and dark.
5:44 Just do it man
This guy is like the Brian W Foster of G3EK.
Hoid = Doctor Who
Funny how he just asked about good, then asked if he could play wit. It seems like he wasn't aware their the same person.
By "Good" do you mean "Hoid?" I think Cippy may be aware that Hoid and Wit are, indeed, one and the same...
A) maybe he was trying to avoid spoiling it for people who haven't yet read it
B) Calling him Wit is an easy way to refer to his role specifically in the Stormlight Archive, while Hoid can be him anywhere
The IVESTITURE NET!!!
Them jugey guys can walk on ceilings too
5:20 if we only knew
Do you think you'll ever write a Magic the Gathering book...... HAHAHAHA
Boi dope
Storm light vs Allomancy.
Not enough extraplanar/ magic like dragonlance./ d. and d. for me.
how is a PTerry reader a religious apologist - it's like this dude never understood a word PTerry wrote ): or he's not really a mormon
This interviewer makes me as uncomfortable as Sanderson's hairline
I was actually deeply disappointed with oathbringer. It was a mess because of too many point of views.
Specialist in Failure I can see that but compared to Games of Thrones, Oathbringer perspectives are mild and keep the reader engaged without losing focus. Each characters perspective fills in a piece of the whole, whether it be in this book or the overall story.

Had we been thrust into all these perspectives in the first book, it might have been overwhelming, but by now many of the perspectives we get if from familiar characters, which helps understanding immensely.
Imo its pretty much the same as the other ones. We got some extra stuff with bridge four but thats about it.
