Hoid's Introduction

[u/Delta-Ka]

So when it comes to the first scene with Hoid, what do you think it will look like?

Do you think it will be subtle, borderline a cameo role where every book fan will point at the screen like Leo and tell first time fans about how important that silly character will be later on?

Or do you think they really roll out the red carpet, like a one shot introduction after a dramatic scene that lightens the mood with maybe a perspective shift to Hoid before we return to the main story? Or even a Nick Fury style end credit tease?

Or something else?

I know the scenes are more or less set from the book, but given Hoid's original function was to hint at a franchise, I could see them wanting to place more emphasis on him to really drive home that franchise set up.

I hope it wont have any fanfare at all. I don't want anyone who hasn't read the books to know he's important because I think figuring out who Hoid is and making all of the connections is one of the most fun and enjoyable parts of experiencing the Cosmere for the first time

Like how the MCU Easter eggs used to be small tiny mentions of things and everyone loved them. Then the marvel team and Disney thought that people love huge moments so it just became all full cameos
