The reaction on Chinese social media to Netflix's adaptation of "The Three-Body Problem" has been mixed, but Vox's Aja Romano argues that depictions of nationalistic outrage are probably exaggerations. She unpacks the response to this adaptation, the book trilogy, and Tencent's "Three Body," and says this time around, the problem is Netflix, not Chinese viewers.
The #Netflix adaptation of #TheThreeBodyProblem (#三体) (2024) is simply a summary of #Tencent's adaptation released in 2023, set in the UK + with a disturbing E05.
Oh, less appealing special effects too, and less impactful scenes and dialogues.
