I used to reread Wheel of Time frequently. I've probably completed the series more than 13 times, because I started reading it in the mid 90s and would reread from the beginning every time a new book was released.

Such a wasted opportunity to have made something amazing.

As a pallet cleanser, here's a fan made version made 10 years ago that is so much more authentic and watchable than Rafe's disaster:

Should have just given them the millions.
