Netflix has released
the first teaser for their upcoming adaptation of Daniel Handler's (as Lemony
Snicket) popular children's novels, Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate
Events. The story follows the lives of three orphan siblings, Violet, Klaus, and
Sunny Baudelaire, whom are put in the custody of their evil uncle Count Olaf,
whose only goal is to acquire the children's inheritance by any means
necessary.
I really enjoyed the
2004 film starring Jim Carry, Meryl Streep, Jude Law, Timothy Spall, Emily
Browning, Catherine O'Hara, and Billy Connolly, so I'm eager to see what
Netflix will do, or has done with the property.
Are you made
fainthearted by death? Does fire unnerve you? Is a villain something that might
crop up in future nightmares of yours? Are you thrilled by nefarious plots? Is
cold porridge upsetting to you? Vicious threats? Hooks? Uncomfortable clothing?
It is likely that
your answers will reveal A Series of Unfortunate Events to be ill-suited for
your personal use. A librarian, bookseller, or acquaintance should be able to
suggest books more appropriate for your fragile temperament. But to the rarest
of readers we say, “Proceed, but cautiously.”
