That's pretty bad news... for those who care about adaptations anyway DomA Send a noteboard - 09/02/2015 03:52:14 PM

(Personally, I don't).

The only way REE could automatically extend their possession of the rights to adapt the series (for TV, for games) was to hastily put together anything with the WOT title and broadcast it before time ran out, which it appears they did, in secret of Harriet and al, and they bought an informercial slot to broadcast it.

Now they'll have many more years to do nothing with them.

Otherwise the rights were about to revert imminently to RJ's succession and Harriet hoped it would be the case as REE has been dragging its feet for a whole lot of years now, and she would have preferred to sell them to someone else.

This was a desperate ploy to keep the rights. May not work fionwe1987 - 10/02/2015 01:56:24 AM 794 Views
