I’m sure someone else has already said it but…
With how obsessed some studios are which short seasons (with long episodes & single seasons too) adapting songbirds where each part is two episodes would’ve been great.
The movie left so much out and doesn’t do a good job of depicting Snow’s psychological/philosophical journey. I get that it is hard to make internal narration show when adapted for viewing, but there are ways especially if the teams have more time to work with. (Playing with light and perspective or even voiceovers.) The movie also missed out on some cool characters like the nightclub owners, Ma, and the rest of the Peacekeepers and Covey too.
Even as a two+ hour movie, if you haven’t read the book you lose a lot of the context.
