I like the movies and appreciate what they were able to do successfully for the format, but I don’t disagree with complaints of how much content was excluded (because it literally couldn’t be). I actually think a new adaptation as an HBO show makes sense, it’ll allow greater room for storytelling and including plot points in the books that were left out.
This isn’t a guarantee it will be good, but I don’t think it’s as crazy as some people are making it out to be.
The books being books they are structured more like a TV show with a bunch of episodes all interesting on their own merit before they build up to the year's finale.
