The article is strange. It is dated for today, but then at the end mentions that the eighth book is due out in May, which is was, and has since released...

Very conflicted about this. Absolutely love Carl but hate Seth MacFarlane and his "humour"

This is an outrage!
What does @Princess_Donut_the_Queen_Anne_Chonk think of this? Will she be doing her own stunts? Obviously no other cat could possibly play her

Ew, paywall. I'd ask you to use free and open sources, but, you're the mod. Please don't smite me. That being said, I can't see the article because I'm not a paying subscriber — and I'm not willing to disable my security software so they can install files on my machine or whatever they want to do that my security software is stopping them from doing.
Love these books. I'm about 12-13% into the second one (Apple Books gives me a percentage if I ask, and I usually do). I'm also listening to the audiobook, which is fantastic.
While I'm excited for an adaptation, I fear we're looking at another Ender's Game, where the audiobook is the superior adaptation. With Ender's Game, Orson Scott Card (bigot, by the way — so yes, I know, if anyone asks) knew they would never make a faithful adaptation of his book, so he endorsed the audiobook as the superior adaptation before ever seeing a film script. The book was made into a movie about 10-15 years ago, and it was pretty good, but they had to age up the kids, like in Game of Thrones, albeit for different reasons. I don't really see a similar problem with a Dungeon Crawler Carl film (or anime as many seem to want), but it's not something that's going to translate well to film (or TV). It really is a game you're riding shotgun on.
I feel like a video game based on Dungeon Crawler World would go over better, being a massively multiplayer online game that is done in seasons. You'd be able to log out, but you'd want to do it in a safe room, and you'd still be subject to being killed (for example, floor collapse).
I'm betting MrBeast is trying to figure out how to do Dungeon Crawler World IRL somewhere. If you don't know, he's a YouTuber. I think he's American. He challenges people to do dumb shit and pays the winners generously. I don't watch him; I think he exploits poor people for entertainment and I'm not with that, but he is quite popular.
