So the next time Emily wakes me up in the morning and won't go back to sleep so I decide to see what's on television and I see a movie based on one of my books, please remind me not to watch it.
Some channel was showing an adaptation of The Time Machine from the year 2002, I believe it was. Adaptation my bloody foot. More like a completely different story than the one I bloody wrote. That backstory was highly uncalled for. The Eloi were wrong. The Morlocks were actually okay. The time machine itself was okay. The Time Traveller was wrong. Mostly. He was far too much like me The destruction of civilization was wrong. I'm mostly upset about that backstory with Emma
For the director of that movie to be the great-grandson of this world's H.G. Wells, I am most highly offended that he'd approve of that bloody drivel. Part of me wants to find this Simon Wells and give him a piece of my mind.
If that's what they did to The Time Machine, I don't even want to know what they did to my other works in the movies.
