Star Wars and totally reset everything as well as continue the EU in its own separate universe and do some animated adaptations. Marvel and simply hire writers who actually like comic books.
Wheel of Time - hire someone to actually adapt the books
Exactly. Although the first one was probably more book accurate than the one now. Or at least they weren’t woke morons I don’t think. The current showrunner said lgbt representation was very important in one of his first discussions. Plus I hear they changed things in the show to downplay male characters
Ha! I’m actually watching SG-1 now on Pluto. In first season still. I saw the movie in the 90s but never watched any of the shows. My parents watched it during covid and enjoyed it. Mistborn is on my list to read. Sanderson actually writes books unlike GRRM.
Stargate has ups and downs as the franchise goes on. Personally I enjoyed Stargate SG-1 for the most part although some episodes are... not as good as the rest. Atlantis managed to be similar enough but also distinct that it worked without being too much of a copy and paste and still explore in its own way. I never managed to get into Universe, however. The basic premise was interesting but the choice of characters was fucking stupid. Once you get to the SG-1 episode '200' in season 10 certain criticisms of Universe make more sense because there's a parody scene in '200' which Universe turned out to take sincerely.
It’s funny because when I was in the Air Force I remember them doing a special about Stargate SG1 on Air Force tv or whatever it was called and the actors talking about how it was an honor to portray members of the Air Force. I have a lot of Patterson as well. He is a machine.

Third time's a charm. Right?

Given how much of a dumpster fire the Amazon series is, definitely.
I actually managed to see Winter Dragon "live" when it was broadcast at whatever forsaken [heh] time it aired for license retainment reasons.
Sure it was awful, but it was bad because they half assed it, rather than ass fucked it like the recent attempt did.

Thanks. I’m still on season 1 but I’m enjoying it so far.
