I need to go buy popcorn in bulk

[muccamukk]

Oh. My. God.

I'm just... I'm just picturing Fandom Of Today finding those books.

You're going to be able to see the wank FROM FUCKING SPACE.

I've been making jokes about how badly a Valemdar TV series or movie would go for years. Producers have been mining niche IPs with strong followings for years and her books have been either overlooked or deliberately passed over so often.

How the heck are they going to adapt the Tale'edras?

This is going to be a trainwreck.

High-school me's brain just exploded, and current me is consumed with gleeful cackling at what a mess that will be lmao

[olivermoss]

It's going to be such a mess! I can't wait for the casting announcements.

Trainwreck, yes, but my 13-year-old self is so excited right now.

[olivermoss]

This is going to be amazing!

Um. Oh, my. Well, won't that be something. (Coincidentally, a friend and I were just chatting about Valdemar yesterday.)

[olivermoss]

I can't wait for more details! I feel like a few of the discords I am on just start talking ML and effects of being raised on those books every once in a while.

Ooo...I admit that this news has me dreading how they will treat the narrative and the response to it I wonder...oh gosh. This is going to be something.

[olivermoss]

Yeah, it's going to be a mess. I think I am going to reread the books soon.
