I don't hate the movie for being different from the book; I hate it for being poorly written/directed and cringey.
Now, the BBC miniseries from the 80s - that is worth watching.
But the miniseries is just a carbon-copy of the radio programme…
Is that a bad thing? It's a different medium that can reach a much wider audience. I'd bet that at least 80% of people who enjoy the BBC miniseries have never heard of the radio program.
It’s kind of neutral in my opinion.
It would have been better if it varied more from the radio show as the books did, and the special effects were largely cringeworthy if a product of the time and budget. The animations were very good though.
My point was that it doesn’t particularly support the idea that all the different versions have been drastically different.
It's a fairly close adaptation, but not the same. And even if it was, why would that affect what they said?
I thout that's what people meant by the film…
