'3 Body Problem' Clip Has Fans Divided Over New Netflix Adaptation

Too Advanced
Fans wondered why the VR technology in this scene was so needlessly advanced. For the purposes of the plot, a modern headset would have served just fine and been more faithful to the books.
Character Remixes
The characters in this scene are not directly analogous to characters in the book, and many fans are worried about what that will do this story.
Reputation
Fans' responses to this clip emphasized how much Benioff and Weiss' reputation has changed in the years since Game of Thrones came out.
Lighting
Fans joked that the lighting and visibility problems from later seasons of Game of Thrones are already present again here.
Completion
The fact that this adaptation is being handled by Netflix has some fans nervous as well – they worry the streamer won't finish the series if the first season doesn't perform well within a narrow window after release.
Other Adaptations
Finally, many fans took this chance to spread the word that The Three-Body Problem has been adapted before by Chinese creators. Netflix's 3 Body Problem premieres on March 21, 2024.
