What I love about #ThreeBody is that it shows countries around the world working together with China to defeat this threat. They are all equals in this conflict. There was a conversation between our main lead with one of the leaders of a European nation which I found moving. It showed that they were both humans with loved ones to protect.
I have real worries that Netflix adaptation would forgo this cooperative element and paint some countries as baddies.
@badri very worth it and would probably be a much adaptation than the Netflix one. After watching the Netflix teaser, my heart dropped. It lacked the subtlety, pathos and intricacies of the Cdrama adaptation and will prob never get there. It's hard to translate the cultural touches to a western adaptation and would most likely be watered down or bulldozed over.
@badri I am not sure where you are based, but you can watch it via the iQiyi app or Viki, I believe. Hope u enjoy it. It starts pretty slow but I find it very immersive.
Edit - Wetv app, not iQiyi
@badri haha relaxing it isn't, but you need to be patient with the first 10 eps for sure. The horror slowly builds up.
