People couldn't understand my frustration with the Jackson films, since the originals were good. But the thing is they propelled Tolkien from a /lit/ series to a franchise, it brought him fame but not understanding. Most of the movie fans find him too hard to read and just meme about flying the Ring on the Eagle
This happens inevitably to all /lit/ content adapted into a film
Naturally they have also made a shitflix adaptation of Remarque recently, he is also one of my favourite authors, and when I search him up now all I get is the shitflix series
