I don’t have Netflix anymore but this seems in line with Netflix. Would be great if an adaptation done today cared about the author’s vision. These companies could have some mega hit shows but decide that isn’t important

The last adaptation made in the 00s already did a decent job of adapting the source material, hot off the success of LOTR doing the same thing. It was the golden era of movie making for such adaptations. Enough tech to build beautiful worlds but the woke mind virus hasn't reached the brain just yet.
Unfortunately, those that did such great work retired or moved on and the DEI hires and Karens took over the machine they could never build themselves.
So of course they subvert existing materials and corrupt it because they are unable to do anything unique that doesn't instantly bomb in the box office since even the cover art makes 99% of fans of the genre nope the fuck out.
I’m just waiting for the “we need to reflect the world as it is today”
Why wait for it. You already know that's exactly what's going to happen. It's Netflix after all.
Exactly. I haven’t read all the books. I have it in my stack to read
The Pevensies will be black, at least one will be gay or a tranny with a pro-faggotization of children message forced in, and the White Witch will say something like "Make Cair Paravel Great Again"
Many, many (((clickbait))) articles will hail it as the best thing ever
You sound like you’ve noticed a pattern
Why thank you, I pride myself on my antisemitism.
Don’t forget the “Narnia was always woke” articles
Or they’ll try to redeem the witch because she’s a woman. Probably blame all of her mistakes on an abusive white Christian father.
That’s the other big one: they are absolutely going change any obvious allusions to Christianity.
And the shill media will either praise that decision or say there were never any Christian allusions. They made a similar article about Tolkien
If by decent you mean half assed crap that couldn't sustain itself past the third movie
