In episode 8 of Elz Tells season 2, we dive deep into the world of adaptations — how stories evolve when they jump from page to screen, console to the big screen, or any medium in between. From blockbuster films based on bestselling novels to TV shows reimagined from video games, we explore what makes an adaptation work (or fail), and why some stories are told better the second time around.Join us as we discuss hits, flops, and the creative decisions that reshape characters, plots, and entire worlds. What makes a good adaptation? Is it easier to make a hit movie from a book? We discuss: Lord of the Rings, Hunger Games, Disney theatrical, Harry Potter, Super Mario Movie, Minecraft and more! We also talk about K-Pop Demon Hunters because Nikon is obsessed with it!
