I'm also guessing the show will cover more of the books since the movie only did up to book 3.

I'm glad you love both. I think the main reason why some movie fans are iffy with the show is because they did enjoy Jim's portrayal of the movie which is understandable. Tbh, I didn't watch the movie back then because I wasn't a Jim fan even if it's a story that I'd definitely go and watch. But now all these comparisons did make me curious and I'll keep an open mind and watch the movie just to see how Jim did his portrayal.

Well that's good to hear Although from what I've seen of the descriptions on Netflix there seems to be some added stuff, too I don't know if that was also the case in the movie...

Yes, that's how the movie is & I'm pretty sure the series will cover all 13 books over 2-3 seasons.

2-3 seasons is enough. At least we have an ending in sight.

Have you seen it yet?

I'm just one episode in, but I like Carrey's Olaf better (so far)...

Nope, not yet. I'm waiting to have finished the books before I watch anything.

OK. I'm watching the 2nd episode of the series now.

You'll have to let us know what you think of Jim's vs. Neil's portrayals.

In a way it's interesting that the movie only covered 2-3 books and didn't do any sequels to cover other books?

How did this movie do money wise?
