Careful what you wish for. Few TV or film adaptations are as good as the book.
Besides BGI is better thant CGI

The Peter Jackson Hobbit films and Amazon LOTR prequel are different kinds of travesties of the books.

Compare real Bambi book with Disney. I enjoyed Disney Jungle Book as a kid, but it's only a passing connection to the book.
Disney's Sleeping Beauty Animation is obnoxious. The Good fairies turned into those stupid twee things and the 100 years skipped?

Disney is a serial wrecker of culture and often doesn't even pay for it. It may seem entertaining if you are 5 to 10 yo and don't know the books.
