Mistborn can be live action, I can see it being done well if Sanderson keeps a tight grip on the reigns. None of the effects would be all that difficult to show. Stormlight, on the other hand, 100% needs to be animation. Far too many scenes and effects that just would not translate well to a live action medium.

I dont trust anyone with a live action mistborn imo. Stuff like the mist, rain of ash and flying around the city it just needs to be animated. With live action they would try to save money everywhere, like the dragons in game of thrones.
