The Three Body Problem trailer for the new Netflix adaptation is out. I must say I am very skeptical of this one. This being one of my favorite books I have my doubts that they will do it justice. I’m sure it will be visually interesting and everything, but that’s not really the point. Especially not for book 1.

I recently watched both the Tencent live adaptation as well as the animated adaptation of The Dark Forest and sometimes I feel like these books were better left on paper. The live show wasn’t bad or anything it just has a different feel to it on screen that’s hard to understand.

Warning: please refrain from posting book spoilers in this thread. General discussion is fine.

    This could be interesting. I found the books to be very much a mixed bag of ideas. I loved he entire concept of the dark forest but I felt it was stained a bit by sexism.

    I could see any adaptation being hit or miss depending on what parts are chosen to be emphasize or cut.
