Here is some doomed Raliggy
Yes I still don't fully like the bbc series (ngl there were funny moments) and yes I don't know at all how to edit but do you see the vision?
I love my ugly son, the camera lowkey fried him though
EXPECT SHITTY CHARACTER SHEETS SOON
How it feels being the only person who hates the new series with a burning passion since my autistic ass can't accept anything not canon, AND also watching people embrace it as the new canon but I'm not.
Guys Imma finish off the lotf series, As a tealand person I'm gonna give my opinion and see if it changes from being a hater due to simon and roger being white.
Ok so episode one is fully down and here are my opinions. Piggy was absolutely perfect, however I wish he was a bit more timid at times, but other than that piggy was by far my favourite and the best because he was strong, funny, maybe even charismatic, and 100% matched the book. Ralph was ralph but I really wish ralph had that authority power he did in the book as wasn't as warm and kind, he was not as kind at the start. Jack was something, I think he's too mean because at the start of the book he was definitely charismatic and somewhat likeable and only picked on piggy, having a lot of chemistry with ralph, but I only saw him really being boiled down to rude prick, he's a rude prick later. The littluns were perfect and Simon definitely showed his kinder side with piggy which I like but I feel with the new scene he was kinda out of character, Simon is quiet and kind simplified and would of never done that in my opinion. The lack of roger too really got on my nerves because roger is important, a lot his scenes he wasn't in like the voting for a chief. Another issue is we don't know who anyone is for the minor roles such as bill, henry, johnny, and maurice to name a few. The piggy name drop felt weird too. Other than that though the acting was incredible, but I can never give it a 10/10 because I'm a sucker for canon accuracy so this episide is a 9/10.
Ok episode two down and I'm disappointed really. It was not at all in chronological order which removed a tonne of the characters motives and development which was crucial to the storyline and mad me confused on where we were in the book. Not just that but jack still feels one dimensional, yes it was nice to see his vulnerable side but he still has that one sided rudeness despite it being his episode, any vulnerability was short and overpowered by his rudeness, his vulnerable moments stay vulnerable in the book. Simon still felt out of character completely and his relationship with jack was so odd, like yes yummy jimon but book jack doesn't give a shit about simon, he barely has a deep relationship with simon because simon is either with ralph and piggy or alone on his own. Not just that but roger was way closer to jack in the book than maurice, but here its shown maurice is closer and jack and roger barely have a relationship with jack. At least they got maurice's character, even though they kept on calling him morris AGAIN. WE TEALANDERS KNOW ITS NOT MORRIS, OML! This episode felt like filler and missed out so much crucial plot it was honestly extremely sad to watch, the lack of character development and proper structure made their actions seem out of place. The only good thing I can say is yet again the quality of the acting was outstanding, and I liked seeing that mini prologue and the scene they kill the pig, but it doesn't exuse such poor writing, it felt as if the writers had never read it. I genuinely thought my opinion was going to change. This episode is a 2/10, the 2 is only for the acting.
Episode 3 finished and I'm still disappointed. Okay so lets see what I did like and not per say mind. I did not care at all about the jimon stuff, yes it was weird due to how their relationship is in the book but it was nice to see preisland choir boys as well as some jack complexity from simon's diary. I did like how samneric were not painted! A big detail that is sometimes missed out which is crucial. Plus I love how the boys in ralph's tribe was confused by the dance. Another good thing was seeing roger more closer to jack because they are very close towards the end of the novel. Plus I very much laughed at seeing the boys smoke because it was so random but in a good way and the choreography in their dance at the very start was very good from the stance of an ex dancer. Despite this there are major draw backs. Simon's death scene, it was so lacking and so rushed. Firstly the boys were chaotic unlike in the novel where they danced in rings while still have some sort of chaoticness. Secondly them actually killing simon seemed so rushed and I didnt get to see the savagery among the boys as the chase the poor simon to the beach. Not just that but simon didn't look beaten up enough, he was stabbed and bitten and his flesh was ripped at. Not just that but after killing simon all the boys were shocked at their actions as they realised there mistake but no one was! Another big detail was everyone joined in! But the "good guys" for some reason didn't. The scene before simon's death with the pig's head was so poor too, its his episode I want to see how he saw the pig's head as he Hallucinated before having a seizure (which he never had). Yet again the order of events were all over the place and we missed important simon scenes with that, and the lack of order made the character's motivations seem odd and unexplained, as if the writers never read the damn book. Continueing with characters, everyone is so out of character, especially ralph, Ralph is incompetent and is too kind to some and too rude to others, nothing like him in the book. He is so out of character it's a joke and painful to watch. Yet again character relationships make zero sense, simon being belittled by ralph and piggy makes zero sense because they are friends, plus ralph calling simon batty makes no sense since ralph would never say that to his face. Knowing the book, the characters seem to have lost their complexity and overall made more one sided. The point is every character has bad and good, morally grey to some extent, but here they very much box them up into good and bad. Since I did enjoy some bits this episode gets a 5/10 and as always, the acting is amazing.
The final episode and it was something. It was not at all like the book, not one bit, but for some reason it felt...ok? It somehow finally showed jack's complexity, that he is a coward and even he knows too far. It showed the sadistic nature of roger, and his relationship with jack. It showed the pain and suffering of them all mentally and physically and that even ralph has experienced death before. Seeing the navy officer uncomfortable and disappointed, how jack couldn't own up, ralph's dispear, it was closing, comforting. For piggy's death at first I was confused on why he was still alive but seeing him slowly bleed to death made his death much more saddening and I actually cried with anger. I'm quiet apathetic but this chubby little kid has not only made me cry once but again. To watch his fear of not knowing as ralph tried to reassure him made me want to go through the screen and save piggy. It was so painful to watch ralph be so incompetent it kills piggy, if you are confused he didnt perform basic first aid which is common knowledge then and now in britain, if he did so piggy might of survived or at least lived long enough for the navy officer to have come. I was literally raging like a drunk man in a pub watching football, shouting at ralph its his fault piggy dies because he's so incompetent. This episode alone was an 8/10, 2 marks deducted for inaccuracy but piggy's death really just really made the episode peferct.
For an overall review the series is a 5/10, the first and last episode was amazing but everything in between was rubbish and it did not help how inaccurate it is. @botteldwater told me is was like a fanfiction which I agree, it does feel more like a fanfiction with how south it went.
Have I changed my mind? No, I'm still its no.1 hater but now I've watched it I have a reason to but I still got to enjoy some bits.

Out of all the things I was disappointed with in Lord of the Flies, I am upset we didn't get a proper prologue or even an epilogue. I really want to see how the kids readjusted to society after the island and what became of the war.
I haven't watched the full adaptation series yet but there is a reason, mainly because the book really never explored it, but also thats for us, the fandom, to decide and create, to ponder in our beds before going onto AO3 to see what others think. Plus the war part I think was just something looming over them as they had their own war on the island, a metaphor in its own way you could say. But I too do wish to know what happened before and after the book's events because we can't always use history as a guide.
