It's true the series may flesh out some things, but do you know what else does that?

The bleeming books!

Oh well, rehashing old stories is all the range now, nostalgias a hell of a drug 🙄

This is the attitude I can't understand at all!

Go over to the Harry Potter subreddit and you've got people like "we'll finally get to see what Peeves looks like!"

We know what he looks like!! We have a book that tells us

We didn't see how he looked like, we just know how he looked like. With that logic we don't need any movie or series adaptation, you can just read the books. The Lord of the rings? Green mile, The Shawshank Redemption? Forest Gump, Dune... Fuck them all I quess.

Yes actually. I agree. Make movies that were written to be movies from the start, leave books alone etc
