When they asked for his help, they meant to use his name, fame, and prestige to promote their shit.

At least the hobbit films didn't try to convince you everyone in middle earth was a nigger

The Hobbit films weren't great as Tolkien movies, but they were fantastic World of Warcraft movies.

i wish the studio executives had just let Guillermo del Torro just make his two films

you can tell from some of the behind the scenes stuff that peter jackson did not want to make 3 films but apparently he was somewhat forced into doing so

They asked for Sanderson‘a help on Wheel of Time and then ignored his ass, too. They just want to launder their decisions via your credibility.

Brandon has been Mormonly savage about the whole thing, too. Nothing that technically falls into the category of Disparagement, just lots of "I said that it would be more faithful to the books to do X, but the directors had a different vision."

"Can you help us sew together our skin suit?"

"... Yes, but you can't eat & rape my children, and you have to actually treat the skin-suit with some respect."

"... well, in that case, I didn't want your help anyway."
