oh yes thats right

and i tend to be turned off from reading books if i find out theyre gonna be adapted into a movie. been like that for me for a long time, although im not really sure why

my mom always said it was better to read the book before seeing a movie adaptation though and i do agree with that for where its doable. because film adaptation will be someone's interpretation of the text, and if you watch it first , you may instead interpret or visualize stuff from the movie instead of getting to experience visual like straight out of your mind while reading the book

Your mom is correct. Also because movies always cut stuff out, which is understandable, but they also add crap and that's what drives me up the wall.

This hits hard because Maya (my favorite character so far and Phoenix Wright’s mentor’s sister and his great friend and assistant and Pearl’s cousin just got kidnapped by an assassin disguised as a bellboy and now we have to get a man a not guilty verdict in order to save her

my friend told me to watch a movie called annihilation and i found out my sister had the book so i read the book and turns out like 80% of the book isnt in the movie. it followed the same concept and world but the story was majorly changed to be marketable to hollywood or something

movie still had some really intense stuff in it and im glad i watchef the movie afterward but book was def better. apparently its a trilogy now, too

annihilation is a bit of an inspiration to the current story im writing too tbh. author is named jeff vandermeer if you wanted to look it up. its a pretty small book

I might check it out when I finish Narnia, I've been looking for stuff to read lately.

a bit of a content warning its sort of like darker in tone, sort of like person vs deceptive environment type of stuff

 

[Chevywolf30]

Like, psychological horror/thriller stuff?

 

[Fraxinus]

im not sure if it would fall under that exactly, more akin to cosmic horror, fear of the unknown or unfathomable.

Ok so my brother just found the weirdest BotW NPC, Loone, the woman with a Guardian, erm, interest

 

[Fraxinus]

but shes afraid of them. poser

Seems like things are heating up

*turns on the stove*

things are about to get spicy

 

[The Dashing Darknut]

Indeed they are

The stakes are pretty high, this case already looks better than the previous one (which I thought was really meh)
