Bring it on. The Kingkiller Chronicle is pure magic. It deserves this multimedia onslaught. Done right, I imagine it could become a solid hit for Lionsgate at a time when the studio could use a hit.

Eh, I've never really understood the hype about those books. I can barely remember what they were about except for a lot of Harry Potter and Malfoy type back and forth, and a lot of 'I'm so awesome, look at me.' I know people like to dissect the magic system, but that won't translate in a visual medium.

I feel feel like they're going to have to change the plot anyway and punch it up for the screen. Because frankly, most of the book is rather repetitive.
