The Three Body Problem trailer for the new Netflix adaptation is out. I must say I am very skeptical of this one. This being one of my favorite books I have my doubts that they will do it justice. I’m sure it will be visually interesting and everything, but that’s not really the point. Especially not for book 1.
I recently watched both the Tencent live adaptation as well as the animated adaptation of The Dark Forest and sometimes I feel like these books were better left on paper. The live show wasn’t bad or anything it just has a different feel to it on screen that’s hard to understand.
Warning: please refrain from posting book spoilers in this thread. General discussion is fine.
I, like a few other people apparently, liked the ideas in the book but was really turned off by the clunky dialogue. Not sure if it was a translation thing, a culture thing or a stylistic choice.
As a result I’ll probably check it out because I didn’t love the book so much I’d be worried they’ll commit sacrilege with the TV show :)
