[foggy mirage]

Not according to literal word of god

@sage remnant

[sage remnant]

Yeah well idc what the author says outside the original work

I have the same opinion on SBS

[foggy mirage]

Its just a bad explanation

So not really suprised

[sage remnant]

For me the explaination I had while watching is far better than the shitty one the author gave

[foggy mirage]

Sadly headcanon can't save this one

[sage remnant]

Just basic reading between the lines which gave a satisfying answer

[foggy mirage]

Not really if its not intended

You just seeing what you want to

[sage remnant]

Death of the author

[foggy mirage]

So it doesn't break

[sage remnant]

I don't care what the author wanted if it isn't outright in the text or media

[foggy mirage]

Like yeah if you imagine your car is a Bugatti thats nice

[sage remnant]

It's literally not that?

[foggy mirage]

Doesn't mean your 1996 honda is a Bugatti

[sage remnant]

I don't care what the author says outside of their work

[foggy mirage]

You just told me you imagined an answer

To something that clearly has none

And agaisnt what the author intended

Its pure fabrication

And headcanon

[sage remnant]

I told its a valid answer that makes sense in the context of the story

[foggy mirage]

If you can't see the issue with that

You aren't engaging with it properly

There's nitpicking

And theres just using headcanon to patch plot holes

[sage remnant]

1. Authorial intention has no say in how I perceive the story. It's the story I engage with
2. I gave an explaination which the story content doesn't refute

[foggy mirage]

Don't really see the merit in using imagination to make your experience coherent due to mistakes from an author

Just because you imagined a solution doesnt make the problem go away

[sage remnant]

I really don't understand what the issue is with this?

[foggy mirage]

Im saying its just flawed from the onset

[sage remnant]

Why would I care what the author says outside the series

[foggy mirage]

Nothing else

[sage remnant]

It's not.

[foggy mirage]

You keep trying to validate it to me

[sage remnant]

Death of the Author is just literally one of the most oldest trick in literary analysis

[foggy mirage]

What are these interviews

😭

[potent zenith]

Pluribus ep 3 ||its funny watching how absolutely awful carol is. She's so self centered its crazy killing millions of people because she can't control her emotions, and now wasting a fuck ton of food just to have "her sprouts" back ||

[sage remnant]

Apparently those stuff were revealed in the Broadway Play

Which is idk non canon to me. Should have had them with main series

[foggy mirage]

You can just imagine a better backstory

Play isn't needed

[sage remnant]

Play content isn't packaged with the actual show

so who cares what it has

[foggy mirage]

He has to be making stuff up

[sage remnant]

Pluribus ep 3 || what Happened in this ep ||

[modern lichen]

I don’t care about what they say outside the actual material of the show either but these interviews are hilarious

[sage remnant]

They are

[modern lichen]

Especially since the Duffers are seemingly incompetent writers who don’t know what they’re talking about

[foggy mirage]

S1 was a fluke

That much is clear

[sage remnant]

I think they nailed the emotional beats in finale but every season has been increasingly worse since s1

[modern lichen]

S1 isn’t a fluke, that’s the problem

[fierce cedar]

Chungking Express || Just finished watching this, I liked the movie but the first policeman's story was much shorter than the second one, kind of threw me off. The cinematography was really nice and the music choices was really good as well. IMO, wish the beginning was better but I really enjoyed the story of the restaurant worker and the second policeman ||

[modern lichen]

They nailed it pretty well in S1 and then had to make up shit to keep piling until it just fell apart

The first season is a pretty one and done story all things considered

[sage remnant]

They searched for the smallest thread they could expand from each season

[modern lichen]

The success of it made them greedy

[sage remnant]

and then expanded on it in next

and it progressively got worse

[potent zenith]

Pluribus ep 3 ||flash back of carol being unbearable while on vacation with helen, carol is unbearable when home, starving herself out of protest; carol asks them to put back all the food in a grocery store so she can feel comfortable and "independent" again. Just wasting food after They said it was to increase efficiency and to not be wasteful||

[sage remnant]

Right

Duffer Brothers Admit They Haven’t Watched ‘Stranger Things’ In Years https://t.co/JiefENJDUJ

X · Jan 2, 2026, 9:00 PM

[sage remnant]

Pretty Little Liars ahh post ending interview scene

fix it interviews making shit worse

[sturdy tundra]

Stranger Things || Ya know, I hear that the show was referencing montauk, a place thats only a few hours away from me, specifically the radio tower thats at camp hero. Something about project MK Ultra possibly being done there. Honestly its a really nice beach side region with a cute shoreline, great place to go birding, I wanna find a bird called a razorbill there||

Image isnt a spoiler for the show or actually has anything to do with it, but figure its good to put it anyway.

Beautiful place tho, nice to take a morning trip to when theres no traffic from the city folk

This is what people actually probably think of with the show tho (just an irl picture of the region)

[sage remnant]

ST || this is where the upside down was created! ||

[sturdy tundra]

ST || Oh cool, little history for the actual place, this is the camp hero radio tower that was used to protect New York and the Atlantic from Soviet invasion! A lot of the theories span from Project Montauk/MKUltra which was the conspiracy that the US government used/tested psychedelics and their effectiveness in warfare!||

[sage remnant]

ST ||yeah I know about MK Ultra ||

[sturdy tundra]

That and the monster (cant show the actual image cause of nsfw for the server)

Not ST related

Gonna head back out soon there, need to find my self some oceanic birds to photograph

[frank rivet]

Oh pitt season 2 is next week

[sage remnant]

peak incoming

[modern lichen]

real peak

[copper phoenix]

its called headcanon around these parts

[copper phoenix]

pluribus ep 3 || while I agree carol is awful, she absolutely had no idea she was killing millions because of a bad mood and I think food waste when the world literally ended is the least of anyones problems ||

[raw gate]

Using your imagination is a core component of any experience with art

Idk how it applies to the context of Stranger Things but that comment is really funny

[copper phoenix]

once upon a time there was a knight, a dragon and shaquile o'neal

you can imagine where this is going

[raw gate]

I can, you’re right

Tis the beauty of having a brain

[copper phoenix]

ok so that means I wrote the story

[sage remnant]

A very stupid thing happens
My brain while watching filled a reasonable explanation, which the show can't refute

Then the showrunners come after it premiers and give a super duper stupid explaination

[raw gate]

You conceptualized enough for another person to put their own pieces in place but you didn’t write a story

Of course it’s you arguing against using cognitive abilities to fill in gaps for a story or writer

[sage remnant]

A writer's words outside of his work about his work has no merit for md

if you have smth to say, incorporate it into the story

[copper phoenix]

thats also really cringe

gaps in a story only work when you can fill them by extrapolating from canon information

if you have to write the story for the author then its a shit story

death of the author is usually just a tool to cope with a shitty story

[sage remnant]

Not every info in the story has to be spoonfed to a watcher/reader

[copper phoenix]

not every hole in the story is something planned

you can fill literally ever hole in a story if you try hard enough but does that make any better?

[sage remnant]

There's obv matter of how far one can go until it becomes a reach

There's a matter of headcanon vs just filling in the obvious things

But by the metric you were establishing, it would make sublety in story irrelevant

[copper phoenix]

when its about garbage shit its almost always headcanon

and since we're talking about stranger things

[sage remnant]

Because anything that the story isn't blatantly saying would be "headcanon" than just engaging with story at any level below the surface

[copper phoenix]

do you think stranger things is the kind of story where it has incredibly deep subtext at every corner

there is no reading between the lines there

its presented as it is

[tawny parcel]

Just like stormlight….

[copper phoenix]

yes stormlight is very straightforward too

but its a good story so we dont need to claim death of the author to cope with some shit ass reveal

[tawny parcel]

I was just baiting but

[sage remnant]

Every story has. That just depends on the reader/watcher lol

for me ST doesn't

but for some it might

[tawny parcel]

I think that’s true to an extent

[copper phoenix]

and the readers are wrong so whats new

[sage remnant]

Take a story where the author has layers of shit.
Say its published and people read it and majority only engage with it in surface level.
Then that story wouldn't have any subtext for the majority, irrelevant of what the author's intention was

even the most famous and poignant pieces of literature wouldn't be appreciated if the majority of the readers ignore the shit its trying to tell

[sage remnant]

You are learning 🫡

[tawny parcel]

I have nothing to learn I am a genius

Do i read a chapter before bed or watch a youtube video

[copper phoenix]

again I'm not talking about actual literature I'm talking about stranger things since that is the context of the conversation here

[sage remnant]

All works have same merit

[copper phoenix]

I dont care if some people will watch spongebob and find hundreds of hidden comments on philosophy and human nature

[sage remnant]

which is assigned by the readers

[copper phoenix]

absolutely not

[sage remnant]

Absolutely yes

[copper phoenix]

viewing every work of art under the same lenses is an actual disservice to the real artists

also if that was a common sentiment then we wouldh't have the current ai slop discourse

[sage remnant]

AI slop isn't even work of art so its irrelevant

Don't move the goalpost

[copper phoenix]

you just said its assigned by people who consume it

[sage remnant]

How do you assign real work of art?
Just the works that some majority of people called "super good" once upon a time?

Cuz that's how the works that have literary merit got their.literary merit

[copper phoenix]

if you think ai is not art is your choice but its my choice to not consider stranger things on the same level as actual art too

so yeas not every work of art has the same merit

[sage remnant]

AI art is literally not art cuz it doesn't have the human factor in every decision of the art, in various choices the way any work of art has

It's giving instructions to a black box which then does the statistical stuff in multiple passes to generate pixels

[copper phoenix]

you ever heard of a digital camera

[sage remnant]

I think you are just broadening shit unnecessary and adding different categories than what we are discussing

[copper phoenix]

anyway I dont really care if you think ai is art or not, thats not my point

you're the one going on tangents lmao

[sage remnant]

???

You literally mentioned AI arts

I just mentioned any work of art has its value set by its reader/viewer

[copper phoenix]

because you mentioned its assigned by the readers/watchers/consumers so if some people think ai is art its their choice and we should respect it no?

[sage remnant]

It's a massively different thing man

Don't move goalpost

[tired hearth]

bro pro AI art in any situation ever is low iq baiting strats

thats all this is

[sage remnant]

If animal farm was written now, and every audience who read it said "bro its headcanon" to any depth the reader tried to explore in the story

it wouldn't get the status it had gotten

Would any depth any author put in the story matter if none of the readers engaged with it at that level and the author didn't have any avenue to express what they did?

[copper phoenix]

if some reader found depth in that work and 99% of the earths pop disagree does that put him in the right side?

[sage remnant]

There's no right and wrong side is what I mean

Each work of art connects with different people differently

if some reader found depth in animal farm and 99% of the earth disagreed, then does that remove any depth Animal farm had?

[copper phoenix]

and I'm the one moving goal posts

[sage remnant]

How so

I said literally value of each work is assigned by the reader

[sage remnant]

and this exactly is that in different terms

Because each work of.art connectd with different people differently, the value they asskgn to each work is different

[copper phoenix]

this conversation was about using death of the author fill gaps in a story, just because some people view that piece of work different doesnt erase all the blatant issues it has

[sage remnant]

Issues aren't objective

It's subjective

For the Stranger things, the most obvious explaination is smth you come up with in like 2 seconds of watching that part

What Duffer.brothers said is irrelevant

They don't have a say after their work is out to public

(in Death of the Author sense)

[copper phoenix]

what did the author say anyway

[sage remnant]

Idrk man. Who cares about ST

[copper phoenix]

yea actually

also sometimes the most obvious explanation aren't the canon ones

[sage remnant]

I just had issues with calling engaging with media beyond what's spoonfed as headcanon and rolled with it

[copper phoenix]

thats why we have plot twists

[sage remnant]

Agreed.
But we can analyze the story after it has completed and with that context

[copper phoenix]

anyway that sort of stuff almost always happens when a piece of media is dogwater

you can always count of that happening

[sage remnant]

One man's treasure is another man's trash

I just engage with the person who views my trash as treasure and if I get a new perspective from them, that trash also becomes my treasure

(hasn't happened yet)

[copper phoenix]

this should be a command

[sage remnant]

I so agree with this but probably not in the sense the original tweet implied

[copper phoenix]

bro tryina hide hes a contrarian

[sage remnant]

Nah.

I like OP

how am I a contrarian

The only contrarian-esque opinion I have had recently is not liking Pluribus as much

(which literally EVERY other place and my irl friends I have talked the show with agreed)

[copper phoenix]

didn't you like stranger things s5 more than the others

[sage remnant]

No?

Only more than s4

[copper phoenix]

yea that checks out

[sage remnant]

9/10 -> 6/10 -> 5/10 -> 2/10 -> 4/10

[raw gate]

Well, that is just a fault of the show then

[sage remnant]

It might be. What I filled in while watching is a better explanation that's not refuted by the show

[raw gate]

I agree with your form of engagement. The problem is if the writers came out and confirmed something to be contrary to your ideas for the show. In which case, even if your idea is better than the writer’s solution, it still wouldn’t be the reality

[sage remnant]

But the reality is what the show has

not what the writers said

Why put any value to what the writers say outside of the work regarding that work?

The intention doesn't matter if its not reflected in the show

[copper phoenix]

I guess ur not a fan of sbs

or vivre cards

[sage remnant]

We already argued this in also manga Spice

[copper phoenix]

I dont like external sources either but im not gonna argue against them

ill just call oda stupid and move on

[sage remnant]

Vivre card no
SBS someone was on the verge of convincing me with the reason that they are packaged in the volume and hence the final work would have both. But I hadn't fully been convinced so idk what my stance on that is

[copper phoenix]

idk man I think once you reach the point where you gotta do mental gymnastics to decide of something is canon or not then its already over for you

[sage remnant]

No

😎

Main work canon

Outside work non canon

SBS is the only case where its still kinda main work

Otherwise its a flawless rule that worked every time

[main lion]

What if the author says something that doesnt contradict the show but expresses a specific theory is wrong

[sage remnant]

I just don't consider anything outside of original media

So like I can enjoy SBS

but like I don't bring SBS to have weight on narrative or discussion around narrative

[main lion]

Hmmm. Idk. That feels kinda like just going “LALALALLALA I CANT HEAAAAR YOU LALLALALA”

[sage remnant]

It's just
If its important, incorporate it into main narrative

If its not important, then it can be mentioned outside and hence has no weight on the discussion of actual narrative

[main lion]

How do you feel about series including extra content as one shots? It being drawn art makes it different than a verbal statement in an sbs (which even makes its way into volumes)

?

[sage remnant]

I can judge it as a work and as a work in that universe but has no bearing in the actual narrative

like

Bleach Can't fear your own world has no bearing on what I talk about in actual narrative

It's extra content and extra story which exist

Let's move this to os since its reached OS territory

[raw gate]

Dunno

You’re right

Swag

[sage remnant]

Damn I broke Rei

😭

Bro typed for 1 hour

And then replied with Dunno

[raw gate]

Yeah I’m not sure why I even try to properly articulate myself while I’m at work lol

It’s literally impossible and frustrating

Also, it’s a frustrating argument in general

It’s easier to just agree with you

[sage remnant]

Yeah

😎

[raw gate]

Cause you’re right that it’s fucking stupid for them to confirm something about the story on social media

And it doesn’t matter what they have to say about the series outside of the confines of the work itself

[sage remnant]

Even if what they tell is good or bad, it just looks bad for them

if they tell smth which is amazing, it looks bad on them for not being able to tell them on actual story (Pretty Little Liars)

If they tell smth which is terrible, it looks bad on them for being stupid (Stranger things)

I don't even remember what Pretty Little Liars post ending Interview had said. I just remember it being an opposite but similar case to this

[sage remnant]

also sorry man

[raw gate]

It’s not your fault

I’m just very hesitant to send messages that aren’t entirely accurate to the meaning I want to convey

[sage remnant]

I almost never am able to do that on Discord

[raw gate]

And in conversations like this one, it’s very easy to make short sighted comments

[sage remnant]

I do that a lot

then like rectify my mistakes and convo go endless

[modern lichen]

I just openly say this shit is stupid and move on

[sage remnant]

[modern lichen]

finished wicked 2 finally and then watched nuremberg

both bad

wicked 2 is particularly dogshit

all stinkers

[sage remnant]

tv shows in letterboxd?

[modern lichen]

there are miniseries

but this is just the finale

as a separate thing

[sage remnant]

oh yeah they had released it in theatre or w/e

[modern lichen]

yep

[foggy mirage]

Ngl think ive only seen you talk about stuff you hate recently

Hopefully you watch something you actually like

[sage remnant]

Housemaid is out. Gonna be peak

/s

tho fr. have seen people compare it to Gone Girl, which I remember enjoying

[foggy mirage]

Not on my radar

Due to the cast

[sage remnant]

Sydney?

[foggy mirage]

Yeah

[main lion]

Gotta peep him reading D.Goat-Man in #other-series

[sage remnant]

That's the only english movie I see coming in cinemas here for a while

[foggy mirage]

I'm trying to watch lake mungo

[sage remnant]

and the others being like Anaconda (meh) and Spongebob movie

[foggy mirage]

The lands of OS are beyond my gaze

[main lion]

Theres a new anaconda?

[sage remnant]

Jack Black movie

[foggy mirage]

Its a remake acting as if the og movie existed in the verse

[sage remnant]

oh it was an old movie too?

[foggy mirage]

Yeah

[sage remnant]

didn't know it was a remake thingy lol

[foggy mirage]

Pseudo remake

But yeah practically

[sage remnant]

How's 20 Years Later series

[main lion]

Yeah its a silly movie lol

[sage remnant]

given the new movie is part of a series or w/e?

[foggy mirage]

I enjoyed the first one a lot

Looking foward to bone temple

I left the theater smiling so I think I was part of the audience they wanted

😭

[foggy mirage]

Directly tied to the og 2

[sage remnant]

what kind of movie is it

and what should I watch or w/e

[foggy mirage]

Its a post apocalyptic medieval vibe

I do recommend it

[sage remnant]

@modern lichen any good upcoming Hindi movie?

for jan

[foggy mirage]

He recommend us all one

But idk if it dropped already

[sage remnant]

Dhurandhar?

already watched it

[foggy mirage]

Yeah that one

[sage remnant]

It's v good

[foggy mirage]

I dint know it was out

[sage remnant]

it takes time to setup the pieces

and some portion of those feel p jarring too

but once it's done, the pieces click and it just is so so so good

I see a Salman movie, Border 2

both meh

Ikkis looks okay

Might watch it just due to it being final Dharmendra performance. Rest in Peace

[foggy mirage]

I'm not as experienced when it comes to foreign films

[sage remnant]

Dharmendra is like among the biggest and oldest star here

[young compass]

dharmendra died?

[sage remnant]

yea

late November

[young compass]

damn

[foggy mirage]

You indian or from pakistan ?

Only asking because it feels like a lot of overseas folks chat in this channel

[sage remnant]

I think only me and Harsh are overseas people among the ones who are very active here

Vady's from Egypt but he's not as active nowadays

[young compass]

wombat is basically australian

[sage remnant]

He's literally from US tho

[young compass]

in terms of his intangible qualities

[foggy mirage]

Idk how you're basically Australian

Is there a method I missed ?

[sage remnant]

ooo there's a Rebecca Ferguson movie cominig

In the near future, a detective (Chris Pratt) stands on trial accused of murdering his wife. He has 90 minutes to prove his innocence to the advanced A.I. Judge (Rebecca Ferguson) he once championed, before it determines his fate.

Chris Pratt on a serious role???

Interesting premise but Idk if they can make it well

[foggy mirage]

I saw the trailers

[sage remnant]

good?

[foggy mirage]

It looks eh ngl

[sage remnant]

sadge

[foggy mirage]

Rebecca carrying that movie

Is my guess

[sage remnant]

wasting Rebecca Ferguson isn't a good choice

[foggy mirage]

Pratt is not the best co star

From what I've seen

[sage remnant]

I don't think I have seen pratt in anything outside Marvel and Parks and rec

[foggy mirage]

Literally only reason I was interested is Rebecca

😭

[sage remnant]

same lol

when am I gonna get that First Law adaptation starring Rebecca Ferguson

[foggy mirage]

Reminds me of minority report

[valid thunder]

Anaconda was so bad

[sage remnant]

https://firstlaw.fandom.com/wiki/Best_Served_Cold_(film)

they did such a good casting choice with Rebecca Ferguson for that role

[modern lichen]

Been watching quite a lot of shit that’s great and talking about it too, no one really cares as much

[foggy mirage]

Ah yes future good movie I hope

[sage remnant]

and 0 development after that

[lone bay]

R&M || man what this show does best is disillusionment. they reall know how to ruin everything and hammer in nihlisim in a funny way. i know people like to shit on it because of the fans and roiland, but this is geneuinely good material ||

[valid thunder]

I thought this movie got scrapped

[sage remnant]

did it

[foggy mirage]

Its just i only ever see you talking about the bad stuff

[lone bay]

i always forget this channel has users

[modern lichen]

Uh… I don’t know

[foggy mirage]

I guess i miss the good stuff

[valid thunder]

In the ama he said its in production hell or smth

[modern lichen]

[foggy mirage]

No movie then

[modern lichen]

I talk about stuff that’s bad and also popular

[valid thunder]

Or maybe it was the devils one idr

Probably bsc tho

[sage remnant]

Devils is being adapted by Cameron

[foggy mirage]

Really ?

[sage remnant]

apparently Cameron met with him and talked in great deal about how he's a big fan of his books and etc

like to the very specific

[valid thunder]

Ye

[sage remnant]

https://joeabercrombie.com/james-cameron-takes-on-the-devils/

Probably gonna do like Alita

[foggy mirage]

Never seeing alita

Again

[sage remnant]

get someone he trusts to direct

[valid thunder]

If he does it himself

It will probably be after avatar 5

[sage remnant]

then it's never being made

[valid thunder]

Yea

[foggy mirage]

After avatar 5

Yeah not happening

He's definitely just doing these

Till he retires

[sage remnant]

yeah he's gonna get someone else to direct it

[foggy mirage]

Even with the best estimates of 2-3 years

Per the next two

He's gonna be pushing 80

Idk if he has the spielberg juice

To deliver a final one pre 80

[foggy mirage]

Ngl I'm just likely to add this book to the reading list

[sage remnant]

The Devils?

[foggy mirage]

And going through before it shows up as movie

This reads development hell

[sage remnant]

or Best Served Cold

[foggy mirage]

Maybe both

[sage remnant]

Best Served Cold is part of First Law Universe

and like standalone set after main trilogy (tho you can read it at anytime contrary to what @valid thunder says)

the order would be
First Law trilogy -> the Standalones -> Age of Madness Trilogy btw

[foggy mirage]

Fantasy authors and these trilogy names always get a bit tricky

[sage remnant]

The Devils is a separate entry

not part of First Law Universe

and not really in the style of it either

First Law is more gritty, grimdark

[foggy mirage]

Same universe then ?

[sage remnant]

no

entirely different thing

[foggy mirage]

Its just when you said separate entry i assumed it was the same universe.

Just the wording of it

[sage remnant]

my bad

but yeah you'll like it

[foggy mirage]

Its all good but I'll have to check this out

[sage remnant]

First Law universe atleast

It's more grounded on fantasy side like ASOIAF

and he writes character and gives them voice really well

[copper phoenix]

juba too

league of legends cooked his brain

[modern lichen]

Look bro I’ve been talking about good things but no one engages with me

So saying “I only talk about bad things” is not fair I only talk about things that are bad and also popular

[sage remnant]

yeah good stuff like antimemetics and hitch hikers

which are the last two things I remember you talking positively about

[copper phoenix]

the west has fallen

yall see the news netflix is already looking at shorted theater windows for their releases post wb buyout

frogs are being boiled

[modern lichen]

@mild seal campaign 4 has been so good, you caught up?

[mild seal]

nah not really

been too depressed to focus on something that big

CR C4 ||I think the last episode I saw, that one wizard's family came in with ghouls and were gonna put that relic inside him||

[modern lichen]

CR C4 ||oh you didnt finish the overture||

fair enough

[mild seal]

ya

[frank rivet]

@mild seal don't lie to me, are you going to watch the Street Fighter movie

https://tenor.com/view/football-memes-memes-discord-memes-discord-meme-mbappe-gif-4757402773594879617

[mild seal]

not in theaters

its also not gonna get my money

[frank rivet]

Ofcourse in theaters gang

mortal kombat probably not in theaters for me

honestly been watching ghostbusters again, i'm down for some good old 80s-90s cheesy. I just wish they didn't pick The worst fucking actors and got some new comedians 😭

[young compass]

i talk about things i love

like league of legends

[half steeple]

At some point you have to wonder who really wrote ts

[modern lichen]

the ghostwriters are gone

so the duffers had to write by themselves

[half steeple]

Exactly

Its the only explanation I can think of as to why a show starts off strong and then ends horribly

[frank rivet]

It would have been easier to just say we ran out of budget

[frank rivet]

Mannnnnn whatever

WAKE ME UP

SAVE MEEEEEEEE

[sage remnant]

@young compass the Mariko convo reminded me
what did you think of A Little Life

[young compass]

see spice it's not my fault

i get pinged asking if i like a little life

do you want me to just lie

[sage remnant]

I know the answer. But it's fun to hear it from you

[sage remnant]

AI slop...

[obsidian basalt]

WoT book 11 end || definitely the best book in a while, hopefully we can carry the momentum into brandon's books. anyway idk how on earth we're gonna deal with taim bro's a menace ||

[sage remnant]

It just gets better

[obsidian basalt]

it better get better for the suffering to be worth it

[sage remnant]

I think other than one part in the final book (which I liked) you would really enjoy it

@modern lichen dude these are so good looking editions
https://www.editorialalma.com/colecciones/clasicos-ilustrados

[modern lichen]

ooh nice

[sage remnant]

grimm's fairy tales

book editions so good they making me wanna learn spanish

[valid thunder]

Damn the third one is nice

[sage remnant]

that's a good one

damn 0/6 for Lovecraft

[rich meadow]

Yeah I’ve seen these before

So nice

[sage remnant]

not a single Lovecraft work edition good tho..

and this...

atleast Dream Cycle and Dagon look okay...

sooo good

[rich meadow]

I need to read the snowstorm

With that cover it’d be even better…

[sage remnant]

you know spanish?

[rich meadow]

Nope

[sage remnant]

Tho that Family Happiness and Snowstorm cover are soo good

uhhhhhh

whyyyy

damn

[sage remnant]

SO TRUE

LITERALLY 1984 IN HERE

[limber urchin]

not edited by the way, this is the version I got from the bookstore.

[sage remnant]

Those Spaniards know ball

[sage remnant]

https://www.foliosociety.com/row/nineteen-eighty-four-george-orwell

had expected better from folio

This tho
God Emperor of Dune || https://www.foliosociety.com/row/god-emperor-of-dune||

this is good

[limber urchin]

why is this soooo much cheaper than the same version for Neuromancer? wasn't that one like 600?

[sage remnant]

Not limited edition

but also probably the art inside and etc weren't as good for the high price

like this 1q84 is at 175 pound https://www.foliosociety.com/row/1q84

and look at this

perfect

We have always lived in the castle. Wow

@limber urchin https://www.foliosociety.com/row/the-man-in-the-high-castle
this is both affordable and goood

man in the high castle

A clash of Kings. Not really a fan of the cover but that midbook splash page. Damn

[sage remnant]

whcih was the neuromancer edition again

can only find this rn https://www.foliosociety.com/row/neuromancer-william-gibson

which is like great and 105 pound

[half steeple]

Thats a big boi

[sage remnant]

in price

[half steeple]

Yes

[sage remnant]

folio society does a lot of limited edition of 400-500 pound

[half steeple]

Good Lord

The book better read to me itself at that price😭

[limber urchin]

Maybe this is a version I was thiking of, not the 105 pound one you posted. I think Harsh originally sent the link a few weeks back and the price was crazy.

[foggy mirage]

Nah they have to be trolling. ST END @half steeple ||https://fxtwitter.com/i/status/2007411554732687684||

[near echo]

@young compass dude Mickey 17 sucked so bad it actually pissed me off

Finally saw it

[tawny parcel]

Really? I thought it was fine

[valid thunder]

hell naww

who buys ts

[tawny parcel]

Unfocused but i thought robert had an awesome performance

[near echo]

Mickey 17 ||he's the best part of the movie but I did have trouble viewing the different clones of him as the same character with different (idk a better way to phrase this) character builder stat spreads. He played em so differently down to even the physical ticks and intonation.||

[tawny parcel]

Mickey 17|| I know it was crazy you could tell which was which just from his body language ||

Totally agree on it being the best part

Mickey 17|| i think mark ruffalo was kinda overdoing it, but its still fun||

[near echo]

Mickey 17 ||it was impressive acting but I think bad world building of that makes sense||

[tawny parcel]

I think i get what you mean

What pissed you off about it lol

[near echo]

Everything else in that movie lol
Hated it almost top to bottom, ||its like this cross section of Marvelisms and Wannabe Terry Gilliam wrapped in bad political satire that intrinsically drives me insane||

[copper phoenix]

they would be good friends with oda

[half steeple]

Yea them dudes didn't write shit atp

I wanna talk to the ghostwriters

[copper phoenix]

d&d and duffel brothers

the 4 Ds

[foggy mirage]

Ghost writers vanished like the avatar

[copper phoenix]

the ghost writers left after s1

[half steeple]

Is that Björk?

[half steeple]

LMAOOO

[foggy mirage]

Yeah

[half steeple]

Ghostwriters are the only explanation for how these shows start off so strong then just shrivel up

[foggy mirage]

Its also s5 of a popular show

They could have written anything

[half steeple]

Yea i dont expect it to be perfect ya know?

But damn

ST End || Vickie just disappearing after finding out that aliens essentially exist and almost tore up her hometown with no wrap up is wild||

ST End ||Nvm the whole relationship she was in||

[foggy mirage]

St end ||max somehow graduates after missing a whole lot of school and having shitty grades.||

[foggy mirage]

St end ||also the military forgiving the gang for killing so many people and vanishing with zero explanation.||

[half steeple]

ST End ||Either she pulled the lock in of the century or they gave her a pity diploma😭😭||

[half steeple]

Thats my biggest gripe icl

ST End ||At least one scene of them being detained and let go because "we cant let this get out to the public" was out of tje budget ig||

[foggy mirage]

ST End ||no child left behind moment, even when they were barely at school.||

[foggy mirage]

St end || will, lucas and Max's endings being:"you have a partner and lived happily ever after had ne dying. Nothing notable but that.||

[copper phoenix]

st end || man the will wank is crazy, and you have people going to war for his character when robin is right there ||

[half steeple]

ST End ||You found a relationship so happy ending lmaoo what a message to send||

[copper phoenix]

st end || her coming out scene was also very good compared to his forced bs ||

[half steeple]

ST End ||Mind you, without Robin he would've never found the courage to come out||

[copper phoenix]

she got mad shafted

[foggy mirage]

St end ||Dustin and will are the only ones with any though to their endings i feel. Besides the young adult gang.||

[valid thunder]

It looks like s5 isnt worth watching

[copper phoenix]

I onlt watched the first part

[foggy mirage]

St end ||vecna was hoping 80s homophobia would save his plan that was years in the making. He could have killed will back in ep 3 but just walked off after talking shit.||

[half steeple]

ST End ||The older group having to schedule hanging out is hilarious and maybe the most realistic part of the ending lmaooo||

[copper phoenix]

already knew it was gonna suck so I dndt even bother

[half steeple]

ST End ||Had him dead to rights and decided to save homophobia in his back pocket lmaoo you could've ended this right there bruh||

[foggy mirage]

St end ||if he killed him there max and Holly dont escape and eleven has no help.||

[valid thunder]

I catched some of the finale when my roomate was watching it

Didnt watch anything else

He called it peak fiction 🥀

[foggy mirage]

St end ||was not a fan of them randomly breaking up Jonathan and Nancy due to saying they met during traumatic circumstances. It felt like they wanted to end things neutral as possible. Like you can have people meet in traumatic ways and have a healthy relationship.||

[half steeple]

Exactly

[half steeple]

ST End ||True but the writing itself fumbled that because the most depth they gave their relationship was mostly trauma oriented||

[copper phoenix]

you're in danger

[foggy mirage]

St end ||yeah that was ok the writers for doing zero work. And deciding to give up. Just saying it was bad because they offloaded their negative emotions on the relationship itself is immature as hell.||

[half steeple]

I agree completely

[foggy mirage]

St end ||jonathan dint do anything to traumatize Nancy and neither did she to him outside getting them fired that one time. And that's something id be angry at my partner for..maybe a week or 3 at most.||

[half steeple]

ST End ||They thought they did something with that "Will you not marry me" scene😂||

[foggy mirage]

St end ||that was very corny and trying to just subvert expectations to stomp the relationship out quick.||

[half steeple]

ST End ||I wish D&D would just tell the truth: "We blew the budget on dumbshit and probably embezzled most of it and didn't have enough to 3D render any Demogorgons etc to help😂||

[foggy mirage]

St end ||I'd take that as an explanation over anything they said related to this finale at this point. I will not be watching whatever show they cook up next.||

[half steeple]

FFFFFFUCK NO

Enough is enough

Netflix will add adult content next month under the new category ‘Netflix After Dark.’

X · Jan 3, 2026, 5:57 PM

internet has become so shit 😭

[main lion]

we got netflix adult swim before gta6

[near echo]

I've stopped eating these at work cuz I do not want to know what you put into a hotdog to keep it at 1.50 for decades on end

That thing is probably poison

[frank rivet]

is it adult swim?

[foggy mirage]

What

[frank rivet]

i thought we already had adult swim on netflix, this seems more like Netflix OF 😭

[main lion]

but they taste good

[foggy mirage]

We all die of something

[main lion]

just joke 😔

[near echo]

Kpop Demon Hunters brought too many kids into the ecosystem

[frank rivet]

lol so whats a better way to keep them

than to get them addicted to 🌽 😭

this is terrible all around

[foggy mirage]

Oh Netflix tweaking out

[frank rivet]

they trying to recoup the cost of that WB purchase

speaking of which @foggy mirage they only want to do 17 day Theatrical windows 😭
Dune is cooked 😭

[worthy crypt]

i dont think its all that cynical i imagine your ability to restrict a kid on netflix will be much easier than restricting a kid on the general internet

[frank rivet]

i actually think the way netflix moving is a bit predatory. They are creating verticals off their huge platform and undercutting other industries. They already took a big chunk of Crunchyroll in the past two years based on marketshare metrics.

[worthy crypt]

sure all that for sure, i just dont think getting kids hooked on adult content is the angle

[frank rivet]

nah that i understand, i just meant that as a comment towards the Kpop demon hunters thing

but i think the bigger problem is this is still bad 😭

[worthy crypt]

i pay so much goddamn money to netflix to have my whole family on there

im hoping i wont have to pay for hbo anymore but i doubt it

[frank rivet]

what ever your paying for HBO

will be integrated into netflix cost in about 1-2 years

you can book that for sure

[foggy mirage]

Sadly not suprised

[worthy crypt]

yeah the hope is i get it for free or at least less money than the sum im already paying but probably wont happen

[frank rivet]

initially you will

[foggy mirage]

Yeah paying for Netflix

Yeah

[worthy crypt]

if it does come for free then i save like 17 bucks a month or whatever hbo is

[frank rivet]

i remember when Netflix use to cost $10 😭

that was only 2 years ago 😭

[foggy mirage]

Gonna likely be 35 bucks

If not 40

[frank rivet]

standard will most likely be premium after HBO

and Premium will be $40

[worthy crypt]

having my whole family on there is 47 goddamn dollars

[frank rivet]

its time brethren

https://tenor.com/view/ticket-tickets-spongebob-movie-spongebob-tickets-to-the-spongebob-movie-gif-26770214

You just starting ?

Lmao

[frank rivet]

lol ofcourse 😉

not ! would never do such a thing

[foggy mirage]

We all pay for our subs

[worthy crypt]

im the sucker paying for mine to support the ecosystem enough so others can pirate and its fine

[frank rivet]

Stand Proud you are strong

[worthy crypt]

if i ever get laid off i might reconsider but as long as i got a good job i feel like i gotta

lucifer was an angel too

I don’t want to hear any writing advice from Stephen king not because I think there would be no value in it but because whatever works for Stephen king is between him and god and that demon he made a pact with that lets him write 3000 words in one sitting daily.

[foggy mirage]

Yeah idk how he writes that fast

[outer tulip]

[foggy mirage]

@half steeple @frank rivet @limber urchin real peak news

that's crazy

[foggy mirage]

Legit insane to me

The finale just happened

And he doesnt want to dip

[sage remnant]

I really find people to be overhating on ST finale, but like this is insane to even me lmao

[white smelt]

You got fished

[foggy mirage]

Thankfully after I checked

But would have been insane

His agents can rest easy

Well not easy they gotta find him new work

Pluribus ep 6 ||Carol is so fucking dumb. She just rages, doesnt listen, and never asks what the one piece is ||

[sage remnant]

[potent zenith]

Pluribus ep 7 ||this is a fucking ad ||

[half steeple]

LMAO

[copper phoenix]

[potent zenith]

i was like 16 when i watched Breaking Bad, i dont remember

[sage sleet]

Watching the Batman and I’m fucking throwing up

[frank rivet]

[main lion]

Pluribus ||and it worked on me I really fucking want4 gatorade now. The most refreshing drink ever made...||

[potent zenith]

Pluribus ep 7 ||thank good ness they use real sugar so it isn't unhealthy ||

[foggy mirage]

Yeah gotta be a first

[main lion]

better be throwing up from how good it is

watch your fucking mouth

[modern lichen]

he loves it

[tawny parcel]

A confederacy of dunces ch 5 ||igneous is too funny man, so crazy to think this book came out in 1980. Dude nailed the neckbeard/incel archetype ||

Real shame the author was never able to write anything else

[sage sleet]

Obviously my king

But I meant

I NEED PATTINSON AS DCU BATMAN

The Batman is in my top 5 movies easily

[main lion]

fuck you

@foggy mirage get his ass

[sage sleet]

I best not see Nate Mann or ballsack skarner or whatever his name is as my Batman

Fucking rat men

[foggy mirage]

This will never happen

So get that out your head immediately

I feel bad for dcu batman people gonna be screaming at them like crazy

Dc schedule this year

[main lion]

just let reeves' batman be its own universe

[sage sleet]

Ik it 99.9% won’t happen

Still want it

[foggy mirage]

100%

Would be more accurate

[sage sleet]

I just really don’t want those 2 actors

[main lion]

Im not even arguing whether it will or wont

it SHOULDNT

[foggy mirage]

Remember people here asking

Constantly

If he was gonna show up

[sage sleet]

Where

[foggy mirage]

Here

Literally here

[sage sleet]

No I mean

Show up where

[foggy mirage]

In superman

[sage sleet]

Lmao

[foggy mirage]

Or that he'd be in peacemaker for some random reason

[sage sleet]

Superman I coulda possibly seen as an end credit

Diner thing

[foggy mirage]

Plus reeves is involved

In brave and the bold

[sage sleet]

But crazy stretch

[foggy mirage]

He was literally there

For clayface

He sat in for the casting

😭

[main lion]

reeves is a good person to ask for that stuff

considering how he nailed The Batman

[sage sleet]

I just don’t know who I’d want to play Batman in dcu

[main lion]

reeves was producer for clayface right?

[sage sleet]

Aside from Pattinson USA USA USA

I think?

Is James Gunn and reeves doing the Grayson Todd movie

Or is it reeves n someone else

[foggy mirage]

Yeah producer and involved in the casting

From what we've seen

[main lion]

do you not see any value in maintaining the grounded tone of pattinson's character start to finish? Do you only look at these characters as table dressing for your little cameo movies

[foggy mirage]

Reeves is just involved

In anything batman

For the dc stuff it seems

[sage sleet]

I like my Batman both fantastical and grounded

Btas my favorite Batman

That’s just me h tbh I

Tho

Fuckin phone

[main lion]

well reeves' vision is already a world without the fantastical. Do you not see any value in that vision?

they should cast a new character for your grounded fantastical ideal

[foggy mirage]

Dcu batman won't be grounded

[sage sleet]

I do but I think they could do more than just grounded. Multiple layers

[foggy mirage]

Gunn already cited who's run inspired dcu batman

[sage sleet]

But I still love reeves vision

[main lion]

you're changing the artistic vision of a creator at that point in order to satiate your desire for fanservice crossovers

lmfao

[sage sleet]

Idk who I’d want to be the dcu one I just know I don’t want it to be the two most popular ones

[foggy mirage]

Dennis o neil batman

[sage sleet]

I think Pattinson as an actor would make a phenomenal grounded and fantastical Batman

I just REALLY don’t want Mann or other guy

Or elordi I really don’t wanna see that

[foggy mirage]

I doubt its gonna be mann

[main lion]

pattinson would make a great anything since hes just a great actor altogether.

Doesnt mean hes the only great actor that exists

[sage sleet]

I will play Batman dcu

Fuck it

[main lion]

Mann

[sage sleet]

Haven’t seen people want that one dude

Jensen ackles? Idk names well

In a long time

[main lion]

whos the guy that plays thad in blue mountain state? My irl friend wants him but I think hed suck

[sage sleet]

Alan rotchson

Roth

ROTCHS

god

Witches

Dude

RITCHSON

[main lion]

[sage sleet]

I think Alan would make a great captain atom or Shazam

Or mongul

Prolly wouldn’t be used as Susan again

Are you fucking joking

[foggy mirage]

Alan can play anyone else just not batman

[sage sleet]

Stupid ass iPhone

AQUAMAN

[main lion]

wonder woman 🔥

[foggy mirage]

Wonder man

Is a thing funny enough

[main lion]

but he should play wonder woman

[foggy mirage]

If he can rock the suit

[sage sleet]

Could also see him as hawkman

Really wonder who woman woman will be

[foggy mirage]

Woman woman

At this point I have no clue

[sage sleet]

I’m actually deleting discord on mobile man

Apple slurps ass

[foggy mirage]

Discord mobile on ios

Seems really bad

[sage sleet]

Today just been horrible

Ok James announce Ben Schwartz plastic man that’s all

I do wonder when we’ll see more big castings

[main lion]

very very soon..

[sage sleet]

Who do you think

Like which chars

[foggy mirage]

Wonder woman already confirmed

Batman too

The teen titans

The metal men

The rest are up in the air for now

[sage sleet]

Metal men honk shoo mimimi

When is teen titans supposed to happen

[foggy mirage]

Dc fans when an A lister isn't on screen

Never beating the allegations

😂

[sage sleet]

The writer did supergirl and then WW right

Then TT after?

I like metal men was joking

[foggy mirage]

Im more interested in swamp thing

[sage sleet]

My fav chars in DC are p much B-D? Ish tier

[foggy mirage]

But the metal men is nice to have a lore and supporting cast

[sage sleet]

I heard the swamp thing show from a few years back was nice

[foggy mirage]

Its getting a movie

[sage sleet]

Ik

[foggy mirage]

Its just in development

[sage sleet]

Just saying I heard the show was good

[foggy mirage]

So my guess like 2 years

It was

[main lion]

wait how is batman confirmed?

Or do you mean gunn already decided but its not revealed yet

[foggy mirage]

Red

We have a name for the movie

A director

The script is supposedly done

The only thing missing is a batman casting

At this point

[sage sleet]

Saw the metal men in one of the comics I been reading

[main lion]

so you think they already solidified an actor?

[sage sleet]

Cool guys

[foggy mirage]

From talks with some actors

They are actively hunting

For a batman

[main lion]

oh thats what I thought you meant by "confirmed"

[foggy mirage]

I think that jack ryan guy

[main lion]

that theyre already confirmed/decided

[foggy mirage]

Said they rejected him

[main lion]

jack ryan as batman wouldve been funny

[foggy mirage]

God whats the name of that buff blond actor

But that buff guy got denied

[main lion]

thats probs the one we talked about earlier

[foggy mirage]

I think so

[sage sleet]

Alan

He’s def not Batman

[foggy mirage]

But batman should be able to act

I can't have it be alan

[main lion]

hey

alan's thad was 10/10!

[foggy mirage]

😭

[main lion]

https://tenor.com/view/thad-castle-blue-mountain-state-alan-ritchson-cocaine-gif-14605274

[foggy mirage]

Bigger question for me who plays Damian

First robin casting

Since 96

😭

[sage sleet]

I wouldn’t hate Alan as Batman but I think he’d be better else where

Biggest question

Nightwing

[foggy mirage]

Not gonna be dick grayson

[sage sleet]

Streets gon light up no matter the casting

[foggy mirage]

But nightwing casting is important too

Since teen titans will be a thing

[sage sleet]

That’s what I’m saying pimp habibi

[main lion]

crazy that there still hasnt been a nightwing

[foggy mirage]

Not unless you watch that bad show

But dcu should have a nightwing

And a red hood

[sage sleet]

Wonder what the titans lineup will be

[foggy mirage]

Likely going for classic

[sage sleet]

Classic animated or classic comics

Bc isn’t it

[foggy mirage]

Aka the one most people know

[sage sleet]

Speedy, Donna, and uhh

[foggy mirage]

They aren't doing Donna troy

Or speedy

Till later I feel

[sage sleet]

I’d prefer animated lineup

Keep cyborg tf outta the JL I do not care

[foggy mirage]

Depends on gunn there

Hopefully this time they dont shaft their cyborg

[sage sleet]

Gunn if you can hear me please James Gunn

[foggy mirage]

Praying for good movies

Can't ask for more

[sage sleet]

Supposedly there’s an announced show coming out this year right

Same

[bronze rapids]

is the wire good

?

[sage sleet]

Yeah

[bronze rapids]

I just got hbo max

[foggy mirage]

Green lantern thats about it

[mild seal]

yes

[bronze rapids]

I am tryna watch HBO max shows

Im either gonna watch true detective or the wire

[sage sleet]

Idr where I saw it but apparently there’s an untitled show

IF so

Wonder if it’s an animated show

Or maybe jimmy olsen

[bronze rapids]

How good?

[sage sleet]

But that seems extremely quick

[sage sleet]

@wooden swift

[mild seal]

very good

[bronze rapids]

Any other good hbo max shows

[wooden swift]

Wire is easily top 3 all time

[bronze rapids]

I am thinking Succession too

[wooden swift]

My personal favourite

[bronze rapids]

And maybe curb your enthusiasm because of that one meme

[sage sleet]

I liked industry but it’s like 70% sex scenes

At least what if felt like

[bronze rapids]

im prob gonna start with wire

[wooden swift]

I'll put it this way

Every single person I turned on to the wire

Has loved it

[sage sleet]

Never forget Adam and

Season 4?

[wooden swift]

Pasto can speak on that, @nova zephyr @scenic terrace can speak on that

[bronze rapids]

Ooh

Sinners is on hbo max

[wooden swift]

And also fats

[bronze rapids]

I didnt know that

And game of thrones

Ive never watched that yet

The only hbo max show ive watched of late is The Pitt which was a 10/10

[sage sleet]

Adam didn’t like 4 right

?

[bronze rapids]

Is Chernobyl good?

Ok whatever ima stop asking questions, I'll start the wire lol

[wooden swift]

Michael K Williams and Idris Elba have knockout performances

Chernobyl is good and quick he's

[scenic terrace]

Pinging me when I’m trying to sleep smh…

[wooden swift]

Good night

[bronze rapids]

quick hes?

[wooden swift]

I don't think that's true

[mild seal]

yes*

[wooden swift]

Yes*

[scenic terrace]

The Wire is goat’d

[bronze rapids]

oh i see

ok

STARTING THE WIRE

[wooden swift]

When you walk through the garden....

[sage sleet]

Shoulda said didn’t he rank it last?

[wooden swift]

I don't recall

[bronze rapids]

HOLY SHIT

UNCUT GEMS IS ON HBO MAX??

Im gonna totally watch that tmrw night bruh

Its been on my to-watch list forever

[sage sleet]

Kid in a candy shop

[scenic terrace]

I think I watched 1 or 2 episodes of that before dropping

[sage sleet]

Is the Pitt good

[bronze rapids]

Yes

[scenic terrace]

Yes

[sage sleet]

Might watch that next

[bronze rapids]

I heard the Pitt is top 2 most accurate and realistic medical shows of all time. Up there with "ER" which I havent watched yet.

[bronze rapids]

It made me, a physics major, want to go into PreMed

[sage remnant]

Greatest TV of 2025

[scenic terrace]

Funnily enough the protagonist of The Pitt was a main character in ER

[bronze rapids]

which i would never actually do
