I was warned, but I didn't listen
31 January 2019
I was warned by trusted friends that, as a fan of the books, I would be sorely disappointed with this movie. I didn't listen

I was warned by trusted friends that the movie bears only the merest passing resemblance to the books, and butchers even those points. I didn't listen

I was warned by trusted friends that - even if viewed without any prior knowledge of the the books - it was still a terrible movie in it's own right. I didn't listen.

I'm grateful that I didn't pay anything (other than my time) to watch this movie, and I will never doubt my trusted friends again.

It saddens me to think about they wasted the incredible opportunity this movie represented. Maybe some day, someone will do the books justice and not just make crap like this as a quick money-grab.
