Martin did talk about the Peter Jackson's (set of) film adaptations for LotR, making it known that it's his top fantasy film and that "it's as faithful and reverent an adaptation as could ever have been hoped for." So I think this falls into that 0.001% category of adaptations that work. Even then though, Martin acknowledges some of the liberties Jackson took. It's interesting that he doesn't mention one word about the Harry Potter film adaptations here... lol.

How he would feel about say... Amazon's Rings of Power, that's another question. I think considering he's more talking about adaptations that have come out around 2022, he probably has absolutely nothing nice to say about it...
