What was wrong with the Wool adaptation in your opinion?
I (re)read the books while watching the show and yes they did some modifications, but I could see why most of them were made (the lack of intra-silo email for example) and there were a few choices that will echo into the later seasons more than I could expect. (Like people ending up in different places than in the book)
But I trust that the writers read all of the books before writing the first season =)
- demondemidi 3y agoSilo jumped from reveal to reveal without giving enough development time for them to matter. You (the viewer) immediately know who is good and who is bad through TV tropes. My partner understood what was going on and the characters alignments almost immediately. (They hadn’t read the books.) when I see an adaptation I don’t want to just be shown the highlights so that I can go “yep I know that scene” I want to experience the story told though a different medium using that medium’s unique characteristics. Not just a picture book with captions. (And the size of the silos was way off from the books. Modern CGI could have pulled that off but the reduced size of it for the sake of the shot… it felt cramped and silly.)
