So, I just learned that Amazon plans to remake the Lord of the Rings series as an Amazon exclusive show. And to that I ask this.
WHY?!
The Peter Jackson movies (except for the Hobbit trilogy) are near perfect! And they didn’t even come out that long ago! Do we really need a remake already?!
How can you possibly do it any better than the movies? They fit in everything important from the books all while cutting out the fluff that came with old literature. It is, at least in my opinion, the perfect adaptation. How can you do better, and why would you even try?
Is it money? Is the reason money?
It’s money, isn’t it?
