balderdashWhere is the creativity?
SeraphI'm convinced they just refuse to read and use books the way they used to. There's several books and series I'd love to see made instead of the same recycled shit.
But I guess you can't predict sales for something brand new and that's starting to bite us in the ass. We need more studios taking big risks on something new.
EveryMuffinIsNowEncryptedI’m actually glad they don’t really adapt books as much anymore. Their track record on adaptation in recent years have been such that they’ll probably just ignore preestablished lore in favor of whatever bullshit they think will sell more a lá Halo.
They've done that a lot, with nearly every series I can think of. But I'd rather them at least attempt to adapt something than say "we can't execute the source content exactly so we won't try"
Maybe if they didn’t try, we’d end up with fewer abominations like Star Wars Disney Canon. Lol.
I kid, kid… … …mostly.
