Then you have the author of Twilight that started world building after the first book, created a number of characters with interesting background lore, then proceeded to do nothing with any of it.
It's even worse than that - Twilight was originally fanfic for Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles series, so it's all just Lestat with a fake mustache and sparkles.
And 50 shades was a Twilight fanfic...
And Interview with the Vampire was fanfic based on a cross between Blacula and the David Frost interview of Richard Nixon...
And the very existence of Richard Milhous Nixon was a protest against the statehood of Arizona and New Mexico gone horribly wrong.
Nah man. Nixon was a product of Dr. Killinger who specializes in creating supervillains.

It's really hard to criticize anything about Twilight after you learn it was literally self published fan fiction written by a Mormon house wife with ten kids that has never once in her life even seen a healthy or fulfilling relationship from a distance, or had a meal containing any form of seasoning, and will almost certainly die without having ever experienced even an aliquot of sexual pleasure
Also, normally when you write supernatural fiction that rips off indigenous mythology, you don’t name drop the tribe that you’re taking from and proceed to integrate their real-world reservation heavily into your setting.
Yet, somehow this would still probably be the most respectful treatment of any of the first nations by any Mormon, ever
The history of the Mormon church is like oops hahaha all war crimes I'm so silly
I read that series out of spite when it was popular, and actually started getting interested in the lore and world when she started introducing fucking X-Men powers. Huge build up, huge hype, and then... fucking nothing. I shouldn't have been surprised, but alas.
Same.
