read it all, I essentially marathoned it because for a period of 3 months I had nothing else to occupy myself other than books and work.

While Jordan doesn't have the best prose it was miles better than Sanderson's efforts, I don't hate the last 3 books but they are just too different. Sanderson ruined some characters too, Mat in particular.

Overall Rand had the best chapters, it got to the stage where I would skim through other sitting POV's (like fucking Elayne or Egwene they got tedious) just to get to a Rand or similar chapter.

Highlight of the books were Rand's descent around book 9 I think, where he feels the need to get harder and colder to the point he becomes a wreck and almost destorys the pattern with the Choden Kal, that was awesome and way more intense to read than even the last battle

Good story, just too long to ever consider rereading. Would make for an awesome anime.

Was with you till the very end sentence when you totally blew any idea of credibility.

heh, well oviously it's too long to be a movie or even a trilogy and TV shows in a fantasy setting are rarely good without huge budgets.

Anime would allow for much more creativity to be poured into the show without the associated cost of a live action. Plus WoT isn't the sort fo thing I could see western animation studios picking up, ever.

It should be a daytime soap-opera-esque show, running for 10-15 years. Otherwise how you could possibly capture the exquisite detail of Elayne's running of Andor?

I hated Min. She was nothing but a Walking Spoiler
