I did read the books and started watching this (only on Ep 2) and I had such a strong sense of deja vu that I feel I had watched it before.

Though I read a lot of books that have later been made into movies or series, I've never had this feeling before and am wondering if I've already watched it. Or I could be losing it a bit.

such as Nicole Kidman, Daniel Craig, Sam Elliott, Kathy Bates (voice), Sir Ian McKellan (voice), etc. So maybe you saw that. It kinda flopped. I think they tried to cover way too much material in a two-hour movie.
