I could criticize the author who made this, but he makes very adaptable works. This feels like what most people want out of Star Trek

I can't stand the "They tried to do a faithful adaptation but still failed because the fans are always nitpicking." type of argument when those movies just weren't faithful at all.

#whaspoilers Chapter 71 . . . . . . . . . . I really hope Custas' plan is to take these people to doctors before the spell ends. His idea is good and thankfully someone was there to try and save them, but this could go so wrong... hoping my boy knows what he's doing

This. I hate when everyone reduces Jason to mentally ill zombie who kills people who fuck. Jason's actions come from anger. Anger at a world that nearly killed him when he was a kid for being different. Anger at a world that took his mother away from him. Deep down, (+)

New threat unlocked: "I hope your character has a sequel so ass that it nerfs them when they finally get into Death Battle"

😭

I FUCKIN' CALLED IT! We saw "Flow" in a theater full of younger kids and they were PAYING ATTENTION, because children aren't brainless! A film with no dialogue, all atmosphere and lots of quiet moments and they were GLUED to the screen. Shame on Miyamoto! Embarassing...

People are still on about Star Wars The Last Jedi being better than it is? (Me being Kind) It's been almost 10 years, there are no new arguments, if you haven't convinced people by now, it isn't heppening.

Man it’s great that you can find value in that, I hope no one brings up a certain thing you said at a con years ago that makes you look like a complete immature edgy ass clown

Wait till you read a history book.....

@pitoumoder @ForTullos Rick Riordan dunked on the Percy Jackson movies but approved a series that is just as bad but for different reasons Same with The Shining miniseries Author approval does not mean quality storytelling

@allowableman2 @ForTullos how it went last time is why i bring up author approval- nickelodeon show pissed applegrant off so badly there's a bunch of direct dunks on it in the late books. they're vocally happy with what coogler + ohanian are cooking so far. make of that what you will

Remember when J.K. Rowling became a bigot and now every breadtuber has to pretend that they actually always hated Harry Potter? Yeah.

The little bald guy who voices the dinosaur in Toy Story is the same guy yelling "INCONCEIVABLE!" in Princess Bride. Wallace Shawn went to Harvard, then Oxford, then to India on a Fulbright scholarship. He's also one of America's most respected playwrights. He took the goofy roles on purpose to fund the writing. He was supposed to be a diplomat. At 23, while still at Oxford in 1967, he wrote a play instead and never stopped. His father, William Shawn, ran The New Yorker magazine for 35 years. When Wallace told him he wanted to be a writer, his father's advice was simple: "If you want to be a writer, don't get a good job." So Wallace took the easiest job he could find. He started doing small comedy roles in 1979, debuting at 35 as Diane Keaton's ex-husband in Woody Allen's Manhattan. The casting director for Princess Bride loved how he said "inconceivable" in an earlier film and gave him Vizzini. Pixar called next, and Rex the dinosaur was born. He's voiced Rex in every Toy Story since and returns again in Toy Story 5 this June. In his own words: "I was never faced with the choice of leading a sub-bourgeois life." Acting paid the bills. The plays were the work. The Fever is a 90-minute one-man play in which a rich man realizes his good intentions have done nothing for the world's poor. Shawn first performed it in the apartments of his wealthy friends, because they were the audience he most wanted to confront. Aunt Dan and Lemon is about how comfortable, decent people slowly come to support violent governments. He's 82 now. He's still performing The Fever off-Broadway in New York and just opened a new play in March, directed by Andre Gregory, his theater partner of 55 years. British theater critics have placed him alongside Arthur Miller as one of the great playwrights of his generation. The dinosaur voice and the "inconceivable" guy were always the day job. The plays were the actual career, funded by the bit parts the whole time.

@pitoumoder @ForTullos Apparently, they stopped doing the graphic novels and considering how it went last time, I’m not going to bet It’s future on a TV adaptation.

@allowableman2 @ForTullos graphic novels seem to be doing OK. disney+ show from coogler is more promising than i would've figured (author approval is a high bar with this IP and applegrant are happy, which tells me a lot) straight reprints did shitty but also were barely advertised or printed

you will be remembered as a hero #projecthailmary

Russell only killed Jack cause he wanted Rose to overreact about the regeneration and he didn't believe Jack would care Originally, Eccleston would have stayed on and presumably kept Rose and Jack, after defeating the Daleks Imagine that, if Jack was never immortal

you can do all the historical revisionism you want but tumblr was not a good website and is still the blame for a lot of the issues in modern fan communities for things today

@ForTullos Let’s not even getting into people treating satire and exaggeration like literal endorsement.

@shitterly @Djaevlenselv Have you considered that the characters are mean to each other because they're teenagers and that's how teenagers often act?

The frustrating thing about this is that they never judge any other series by the standards that they hold that series to By their own standard, Game of Thrones doesn’t hold up
