"A Series of Unfortunate Events" to be Made into Netflix Series
-
This was by far one of my favorite series of books growing up. The ending was good, albeit quite open-ended. I actually am tempted to go back and re-read them.
Anyways, Netflix is picking up the series and turning it into a show! The movie was the epitome of a horrific job at turning books into a movie. They went out of order, with the movie showing the story in the order of the books as 2, 3 and 1. The character portrayals were EXTREMELY poorly done, as they just flat out weren't accurate. However, with shows like "Orange is the New Black" and, although I'm not a fan (not political enough to enjoy it), "House of Cards" has also been successful. Good quality shows so far, so I'm hoping it works out! WOOHOO!

That's pretty cool. They licensed their first movie too... the sequel to Crouching Tiger.

I'm not sure what more explanation to give.

I have no idea what you're talking about with a sequel and all that. There was only one movie, and it was horrible.

Netflix's first in house movie is the sequel to the classic Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Before now they've only made their own TV shows, not movies.

Oh ok. You gave no context on your statement and it made no sense in this post. When you said "they licensed their first movie too", you made it sound like Netflix was the one who made the original Unfortunate Events movie. Just the wording was wonky.

But I said that the first one was the sequel to Crouching Tiger.

I was reading it a different way. Just how my brain works...
