Personally these days when I hear they're making a book or book series I like into movies/tv I wait for the inevitable disappointment.
I hear they're ruining Robert Jordan's books next, something I plan to skip entirely and just re-read the books instead.
I'd love to train it on the LotR movies and spit out a book-accurate rendition of the story with those graphics.
Presumably that would lead to a 42 hour Lord of the Rings movie with horrendous pacing issues etc. Which would make it a terrible business proposition for the movie industry now (literally: why?) but if an AI could spit it out cheaply a whole lot of LoTR fans would watch it avidly.
You just described modern Hollywood.
The Lord of the Rings trilogy seems like quite an achievement these days; I don't recall seeing the same amount of passion and dedication in any of the more recent film adaptations. But I think I might also be biased due to my age when it came out. I'm in my forties now, and I rarely bother with film and television now, preferring books instead.
