  2. ​@JUGGERNAUT8000 I'm wishing that there were one or two FEMALE/FEMINIST billionaires, for a change, actually, who would do just that! 👍

  3. Yes. This is a real pity, that this show was canned. 😏 Lifetime is obviously a rubbish company, if they can only commit to a mini-series, when it is obvious that even just the first book requires a "box set,", so a full series. Personally, and as a woman, I am really IRRITATED that a series by a MAN, such as Game Of Thrones, gets so easily greenlighted, when something with an obvious feminist (but by no means man-hating) message, such as Auel's Earth's Children series, is basically still-born as an adaptation, and gets cancelled before it hss even started. 😏 Must be down to some MALE executive's decision. 😏 I personally find, also, that a thing like Game Of Thrones, is at least in some ways, sexist trash..(Look at the wsy the character Circe is treated, for example. Very "inspiring" to UK reactionary "opinion-former" Jeremy Clarkson... 😏) So anyway. I really do think that still sexist Hollywood/cable TV needs to take another look at the Earth's Children series. Especially seeing as, as this YouTuber states, CGI has come on in leaps and bounds! And I am sure there are fans of David Attenborough and the like, who would watch it just for the prehistoric animals! 🙂 But expecially now that Hollywood has had such a great success, with the Hunger Games franchise, featuring another strong, independent young woman. It's time for them to take another look at Earth's Children. I don't see how they could lose. Another magnificent speculative fiction series, also by a woman, incidentally, which I would like to see made as a BOX SET (not as a movie - it's far too complex) is The Saga Of The Exiles (basically, epic sci fi & time travel, + lots of Jungian philosophy and creative anachronism) by the late Julian May. This too was optioned before the author's death in the 2010s, but again was sadly never made. (Again, I'm afraid I detect sexism here. 😏) Anyway. I'm telling you something. The May, like all these epic series, has a vast cast of characters. But the real standout (for me, anyway) is the young lad called Aiken Drum. I swear: put him on screen with a good young actor in the role (no-one too soppy-handsome or conventional-Hollywood looking, thanks) and practically every kid in the WORLD would adore him, for his rebel personality, and half of them would want to BE him, or copy his attitude. (Much to the distraughtness of many of their parents, snd every conservative in existence, no doubt! 😄) I did, aged 15. I still want to see him up there on the small screen. Anyway. Thanks for listening, peeps: or rather, reading!! 🙂 Thank you also to the creator of this video, for explaining what happened to the COTCB series. I only found this on YouTube now: so a happy New Year 2024 to all, as that is when I am typing this! 🥂

  5. ​​ @AngelLestat2 I don't think I'd really want it to like that, personally... Except for this. In the last book, Ayla has many dreams and visions. She envisions a tall blond son of hers (who she has not had yet) meeting the half-Clan son (Durc) she had when she was with her Clan, and they have some sort of a confrontation. I think I'd like to see something around that. (Incidentally: I bet that Durc sooner or later becomes leader of his Clan; and that he has to slay Broud to get there, because of the latter's jealousy..)

  6.  @mitchellskene8176  Hmm, which plot threads? (Though I have seen an interview on YouTube where Auel hints that she may return to the series..)
