Hi Regen! Yes, there is an Indiana Jones from this year. As Harrison Ford is not young I imagine this will be the last movie. They said they were not trying to do a pass-the-torch movie with the female character, but I do not know. Perhaps they were probing the waters  :)

Good luck with the window.

I watched Wheel of Time. So, my comments.
(click to show/hide)The scene that DC commented felt weird to me. Egwene was supposed to be real powerful, but still a novice. Not so much raw power as Nynaeve or the Dragon. And yet, he kept the big baddie at bay for a long while. It felt random. I still liked the scene in general, with all they gang getting together and Moiraine and Lan helping from outside, but I think there should have explained something about Egwene sudden surge of power.
My heart broke for Hopper, his scene was so sad. But again, it was weird how he crossed the whole city, arrived at that moment and then it was a chain of killings that was almost comical. i mean, the black man (the whitecloak, i do not remember the name) decided it was a great idea to forget about the mission and just attack Perrin, alone. Then Hopper attacked. The old man killed Hopper to try to save the black man. Perrin got angry and killed the old man. The young man went to kill Perrin (luckily he was stopped). It felt too much. Also, I got angry because they made me feel secure about Hopper's destiny because Perrin asked him to wait outside. They tricked me! Sneaky bastards.
I think Moiraine's sister was amazing. I also loved the Brown sedai and her sister.
I did not like Junkie Mat all season but at least in the finale he shone.

Regenbogen:
Ah, good, I'll see where I can find the film. Definitely want to watch it. Harrison Ford !!!  ;D

WoT:
(click to show/hide)Honestly, I was annoyed with Nynaeve. At first she appeared to be quite the grown-up, looking out for the others and protecting them. But in this season she mostly behaved like a sulking teenager. Always whining that all the teachers were so unfair and nobody understood her. Except the part where she went through the portals.
I just came home from a meeting with my violin teacher. Most of the time, he doesn't teach anymore, we just meet regularly to play together. We didn't manage to play all the Christmas songs yet, so we decided to meet again on Friday to play the rest. Because he said, they need to be played before Christmas, lol.

Dina:
I have it in Disney+, which is why I watched it a few days ago, when it appeared there. It has a deaging part which was excellent, in my humble opinion.

WoT
(click to show/hide)Yes, and in the finale she was so annoying, like freezing instead of doing her Wisdom job and helping Elayne. It is like season 1 was Nynaeve's. Season 2 is Egwene. But we need to see powerful Rand in action.
I think I like your violin teacher  :)

Doroga's Cousin:
The one thing I will say about that character (click to show/hide)they do technically mention the reason she isn't able to channel on a whim, but I don't think they've actually explained what it is/why it works that way. Ah well. Dovie'andi se tovya sagain, as they say.  ;)There is one thing I'm really, really hoping the show doesn't do. I'll know early next season if they are planning on doing it though.

Regenbogen:
We just watched Indiana Jones. Dina, you were right. It felt like one if the old movies. I also liked it. Funny: once they entered a building at night, didn't stay long and when they got out, it was day. LOL. May have missed something in between, but my husband also said: "didn't they go in at night?"
Did you notice Antonio Banderas? At first my husband didn't believe me, but it was him.
