I like how the mention of Hemalurgy comes up and Sanderson automatically grabs a card. I take it this will be very huge in the coming books, not just the mistborn series.
Tien felt like he was a bad person but didn’t want others to know because he knew they looked to him as a ray of happiness and hope… I’m literally crying, that’s so sad! 😭
I can certainly see that he viewed himself as a failure. Extrapolating that to being a bad person in general is still a bit harsh, but when you have Kaladin Stormblessed as a big brother, that creates pretty significant expectations.
Questioner1:can lightweavers create blackholes? Brandon: the average light weaver is not strong enough. Random questioner: isnt hoid a lightweaver? Brandon: Hoid like to play with fire, hoid should not be a lightweaver...
i already commented this, but i figure someone who both burn duralumin and also lightweave might be strong enough. So Hoid is almost certainly strong enough lol
@@Firefight_ it stands for read and find out. Brandon got the term from Robert Jordan and uses them when he doesn't want to answer a question. Not just because of potential spoilers but sometimes he does it because he doesn't want to canonize something or he just hasn't had the time to think about what the question is referring too. The man gets asked 1000's of questions every year and it can be difficult to keep track of everything he says. The last thing he would want is to say one thing to a questioner and then years later having forgotten all about it, do the opposite.
I would have loved to ask if Brandon will keep Adonalsium's nature a mystery just like he did the beyond. Because Adonalsium is supposed to be the God of the Cosmere, but as his name ends with ium, like a metal, I think people could also view him as a force. And so the theists and atheists in the story will both be satisfied and have their own view fullfilled.
Follow up question at 47:50 in oathbringer we see dalinar being forgiven by Evi from beyond, did Dalinar make that connection himself or someone else like stormfather did it for him.
i would stumble so much trying to ask this dude a question. like he's so nice and def knows when people are kinda shy and i love that, but its just... this dude made stormlight!
Probably, but I would not be surprised if they saved Hoid to the last film (presuming a trilogy) to make sure they get an actor who is as young and "stable" as possible. But there might also be a certain amount of handwaving with Hoid. "Why does Hoid look like two different people (or has aged in reverse) between series? He's a lightweaver and he's on the run! He changes his appearance slightly to make sure he's less identifiable."
Taravangium’s good and bad days could refer to how connected or disconnected he is from odium’s power, since he had to be in a very specific state (“bad” days, which turned out to be the good days) to receive that power.
They have nothing to do with each other. His good and bad days came from his agreement with Cultivation, which predates the stuff that happens in RoW. They were tied specifically to his intelligence and empathy. Shard stuff could interact with it, but his good and bad days specifically refer to the agreement he made.
@@DarthenosC9He was receptive to Odium’s power only on a day where he was very empathic/emotional (passionate) and not intelligent, because intelligence makes him emotionally detached. That’s why I’m saying he may have more access to Odium’s power on his empathic/emotional days, and less access on his intelligent days where he feels very little passion and is therefore very different from the shard. Just a theory.
OH, AND I love your books Sando, I've read, and bought every one I could find. Honestly, Stormlight Archive and Mistborn series in top 5. Ever. Yall ever read the Demon cycle series? This great as well.
@@LucysLocket how did you pace yourself a novel a month? I'm 500pages in the first book it's going by pretty quick I cannot put it down! Thanks for believing in me haha!
I couldn't find anything related to this on Coppermind or WoB, so I'll just ask it here: Can Soulcasting be used on an Allomantic metal, and if so, how would that change its Allomantic use? For example, if a source of tin were Soulcasted into pewter and then ingested- and burned- by a Mistborn, would the Mistborn be gaining enhanced senses or enhanced strength? My gut says strength (because pewter) but I'm not sure.
I don't think it's gonna get a film adaptation anytime soon. Iirc, Fox had the rights for a film adaptation for reckoners, but Disney bought them, and I highly doubt Disney would make a new superhero movie that is not Marvel right now.
Going to guess Soul/Star Burner is the video game project he's alluded to? Not sure what else he'd be working on he wouldn't be at liberty to talk about.
I thought I'd read all the Cosmere books, but some of these spoiler answers make me feel like I missed some. 😂 Like, was it taken as a given that Kelsier is the leader of the Ghostbloods? Where could I have picked up that piece of knowledge?
It's mentioned, in Rhythm of War i believe, that the leader of Ghostbloods is called the "Lord of Scars" by Wit at the end of the book. Somewhere in the last few chapters.
Read And Find Out, the only answer that Robert Jordan ever gave to potential spoiler questions, and which Brandon continued. I have four of them. Three from Brandon, one from RJ, one of the last.
Might be a dumb question or a case of him just fudging words like the height thing but does anyone have an idea why he uses the the word Earth in both Stormlight Archives and Mistborn series when both worlds already had the names Roshar and Scadrial?
Brandon always says that you can think of his books as having been translated from the native tongue of the world in which the story takes place. So imagine that an Sacdrian used the Scadrian word for "the ground of Scadrial" and then someone translated that word as "earth" for you to read. 🙂
Speculation and if true probably heavy SPOILER for future books: Unity - or Unite - isn't a shard. It is a Dawnshard like Change is. Incidentally, the other Dawnshards are Survive, H*** and of course, Change. Unite is the "different" one. I'm not going to explain how I figured these out because doing so are even worse future spoilers. Will not mind if this is deleted. I've censored one of them because just saying it probably ruins future Mistborn/Elantris reveals.
Eshonai is the most boring character I have ever tried to read through. Ended up just skipping half of rhythm of war because she’s on every second page even tho she is FUCKING DEAD!..

I just finished Skyward and Starsight and they were absolutely amazing! I ordered Cytonic online to read next.
If Mistborn is made into a movie would Brandon make sure that Hoid makes and appearance?
There's no way he would ever miss the opportunity to kickstart the Cosmere Cinematic Universe. 😄
probably not, because he ends up taking a larger role in later books, and Brandon doesn't really have the acting skills to be in those roles.
Probably, but I would not be surprised if they saved Hoid to the last film (presuming a trilogy) to make sure they get an actor who is as young and "stable" as possible.

Also, will Kaladin have good fortune?
IMO Reckoners book 1 is an almost perfect film.. "The Boys" show even helps? maybe?
