ok I've read the books and I have no idea what is happening in this trailer...

The wheel is obviously weaving as the wheel wills... Or something.

I can't bring myself to watch the show since it was my all time favorite series and TV tends to fuck up adapting from book to show.

You will do well by not watching it. Its terrible.

Cautiously interested. Over time I've grown less concerned about accuracy in adaptations as long as the end result is good (look at how popular the MCU or How To Train Your Dragon series are, or the Spider-Verse films which are some of my favorite movies period), but Season 1 did have some big flaws and the final two episodes were... not great. I enjoyed the first six fine though, so I'm willing to give them a chance to show what they've learned. The trailer looks fine, but obviously that's not a lot to go off of.

I see they have re-upped the commitment to just making everything up as they go along.

This trailer is beautifully crafted, but it leaves me very confused. I think I have read the books 3-4 times, but I cannot make heads or tails of this Trailer. Will probably watch the show either way
