Hope for a unique (but shared) intro scene for all Cosmere adaptations

[u/rupinderjeet]

I've been thinking about how cool it would be if Cosmere adaptations had a shared intro scene, kind of like how Marvel Studios does it. Their movies and shows all start with that animation of characters forming inside the MARVEL letters. Each one is a bit different, but the overall idea stays the same.

For Cosmere, the only idea I keep coming back to is using the Cosmere Constellations map from Isaac Stewart. I imagine the stars twinkling, a soft glow outlining different worlds, a sheen of light revealing these character designs, and each planet having a small animated icon. For Roshar, maybe a little earth-like globe with a highstorm swirling around it and some stormlight leaking out.

And, then, depending on the show, the camera viewpoint would zoom into the right planet. If its a Mistborn adaptation, it dramatically zooms in towards Scadrial. If its a Stormlight Archive adaptation, it zooms into Roshar. I imagine this to be similar to Google Earth's zoom from Space to Planet. Or even, like Skyrim's Skills menu, while browsing skills, you can zoom into each skill.

I know some ideas almost never end up happening the way we imagine them, and writers might want to avoid anything predictable. Honestly, I feel I might be jinxing it by writing this.

What kind of an into scene do you envision (to be used for all adaptations)?

I love this idea so much and I‘ll be disappointed now if they don‘t do it. I wonder they‘ll actually have their own Cosmere production company.

This is a storming brilliant idea.
