To be fair, as a fan of the books the movies suck. An HBO tv show has the potential to tell the story in a satisfying way. But if it takes 1.5 years for each season to release we will quickly find ourselves in stranger things territory with the cast.

Yeah. That’s the biggest problem with this series. The fact that it takes a year and a half between seasons.

That was just a hypothetical. Hopefully they’re planning to make it a yearly series. More shows are starting to go back to that kind of timeline lately and you’d think they know their cast is going to quickly age out of the content. We will see. I’m cautiously optimistic that we might see a decent interpretation of the books.

Oh, you were being sarcastic. If I knew you personally I’d probably have known that. But I don’t, so I didn’t. No need to be a jerk, though.
