@shrewd sigil

[pale trellis]

Apple?

[sage remnant]

This isn't cosmere

[pale trellis]

I knkw

Thats why I asked

[sage remnant]

so no clue. Not part of the apple agreement

[pale trellis]

Fair

[sage remnant]

Not said anywhere

[pale trellis]

Man stormlight in LA is gonna be so good

[sage remnant]

Brandon's getting projects everywhere

[sage remnant]

meh

I am already a hater since day negative

[pale trellis]

Lame

[sage remnant]

I have 0 hope of it being good for me

It's gonna be MCU-ish slop

which people would eat up

[pale trellis]

Doubtful

Mistborn

Maybe

Im not expecting that for stormlight

[shrewd sigil]

the boom in popularity for sando when all these shows and movies come out is gonna be crazy

never read skyward so I don't really know what to expect ngl

[sage remnant]

Gonna be hating that too but well good for Brandon

[sage remnant]

I dipped after Steelheart became one of the worst books I have read

this was 5 years ago already bruh

[shrewd sigil]

i hate it because one of my friends shittalks his books constantly but I know he'll switch up the moment he becomes super popular

[pale trellis]

Has he read them

[shrewd sigil]

he read 4 chapters of twok

[pale trellis]

Those that dislike his prose will probably like the show better

Because it will carry the same beats

[sage remnant]

Meh

it mostly won't I am sure

as an avid hater of OPLA I don't see Stormlight being good either as well

[pale trellis]

One piece is alot wilder

[sage remnant]

Because OPLA is a super shitty adaptation for me which fans hail as a perfect adaptation

or w/e

the level of purity I want from certain media is more than others

[pale trellis]

OPLA is a fine adaptation imo. They are doing fine for such a tall order

[sage remnant]

It's very ass

[pale trellis]

I disagree

[sage remnant]

yeah well that's the point. Idc. It's not the level i want these adaptations to be

and since this level is what you are calling a good adaptation

It's gonna be a similar case with Stormlight

[pale trellis]

I disagree

[sage remnant]

💀

[pale trellis]

Stormlight is not a tall order for live action in the same way one piece is

There are magical and mystical things about it sure

But more grounded

Not in the wild nature of one piece

[sage remnant]

💀

Not at all the point I was making so idk why we are discussing when we aren't on the same page lol

[pale trellis]

What are your issues with opla then

[sage remnant]

I have already said it properly in the chat 💀

Imma go back to watching Scarlet

[pale trellis]

[sage remnant]

Source material purity

[pale trellis]

Like

1 to 1?

[sage sleet]

Very. Love the world so far

[foggy mirage]

Live action is aggressively mid

Also doesnt help they took to long so the actors aged out

[main lion]

Season 2 is pretty good with some major flaws

Season 1 is mid

[brave orbit]

Agree with red

Tho i dont think the flaws are major

[spiral quest]

I dislike both seasons quite a bit

I dont know what others are getting out of it as fellow One Piece fans, but fair enough

[shrewd sigil]

elantris/cosmere all ||honestly had it in my head this whole time that Dominion being a woman is canon||

[foggy mirage]

Also live action avatar is aggressively mid

By s3 that boy aang is gonna file for divorce

With how long they take to release

[spiral quest]

Ill just save the time, I havent see a live action adaptation of anime that Ive enjoyed. There are exceptions to everything, but specifically here and tbh video game movies tread pretty thin ice as well, just havent seen anything that Ive loved

I think a major componet for me comes down to the whole cosplay syndrome thing. I havent watched one yet where it didnt feel like I was watching someone try their best to convince me they are a character but I just dont buy it

And that's due to the fact that making a costume for these actors is always gonna make them, to me, look like they are at a comic con

[vale mica]

that's also because the costumes look brand new and not "weathered" like actual clothes

[spiral quest]

That's a great point too

[vale mica]

oh I guess worn is the right word here

[spiral quest]

I got your meaning

Everything looks like it just came out of the costume department

Brand new

I will give credit to the OPLA for giving different outfits to the characters, but I still dont buy em all the way

Also

OPLA s2||Wapol, the hybrid form of chopper, and Arlong all looked really bad. I know, probs not a lot you can do, I found them just. Bad. ||

[near echo]

Arlong was bad, his head was covered in so much makeup and so many prosthetics that it kinda made him look scrawny even though the actor was ripped

Wapol I thought was excellent

[charred rivet]

ik

[vale mica]

I've only watched one episode and it was pretty good

it's a shame they didn't do usopp's long nose tho

[spiral quest]

We will have to agree to disagree

I just didnt vibe with it

[tawny parcel]

Fuck you

I fyou disagree with me

you are evil

its never as simple as agree to disgaree

[spiral quest]

I mean maybe for deadlock playing zoomers

[tawny parcel]

You cant just disgaree with someone politely

You're either with me or against me

[spiral quest]

Against

[tawny parcel]

Thats how you spell the fcucking word???????

oh wait ur saying you're against me

I thought you were making fun of my spelling or something

[spiral quest]

Brother lmao

Wombat you are one of a kind

[fair echo]

Looooool

Karl Urban is great man

[toxic pebble]

Tagging the main writer is insane work too

[jovial minnow]

This is such Michael bay movie lol

[tawny parcel]

is thisa compliment

Is Michael Bay still working on the skibidi toilet movei

[valid hamlet]

first movie to get a -20% on rotten tomatoes

[valid hamlet]

yeah

they said its going to be similar to john wick 3

style wise

[boreal vale]

The boys finale ||the most entertaining part of the series from season 1 to 5 was Homelander looming in the background, and sometimes forefront. He felt near-omniscient and all powerful. The tension whenever he was on screen, seemingly on the edge of killing everyone in sight, was his aura. I don't like his power loss characterization though. I don't think he'd lean into self-preservation, rather he'd be in denial about his power being taken||

The boys finale/avengers Infinity war ||it drives me mad that we're not supposed to think butcher is right though. One sick man did all this, and there are so many more out there. It's not even like 'muh thanos was actually has a point', by and large supes are murderers and perverts in that universe, that's how the show portrays it. Let kimiko or Starlight (or just remove her power) hide in some cave for a few weeks and the good ones can be saved||

[modest canyon]

Absolute Batman 10 ||Hands down the fucking coolest Killer Croc has ever looked||

[toxic pebble]

Spoiler tag brother!

[spiral quest]

Yeah youre gonna wanna tag that

You might get got

[jolly ruin]

Row 78 || so restares is Kalek???? Gavilar Kalek and Nale were trying to find a way to kill odium using negative void light? ||

[worthy crypt]

Yeah ima delete that spoiler tags are always required please, @mossy estuary

[sage remnant]

It's complicated. Rafo

[worthy crypt]

you might catch me ima read the new dcc before wat

[sage remnant]

Enjoy

I effectively dropped dcc

[worthy crypt]

i didnt like the early books but im glad i stuck with it

it takes time

dcc 1 is one of the only 2 stars i have on my goodreads

dcc 1 and hyperion 4

[spiral quest]

Actually gives me hope

The premise isnt usually my thing

[sage remnant]

It's just manhwa slop kinda book but with decent prose

[spiral quest]

But I keep hearing praise

[worthy crypt]

i cant really say w/out spoilers obviously but it does eventually get somewhere worthwhile and interesting

[sage remnant]

I read idr 3-4 books

[jolly ruin]

row 79 || also damn Kalek dropping hella info in the epigraphs. Singers trapped Jezrien in a gemstone ||

[sage remnant]

Yea end of ob stuff

[sage remnant]

Also wow

[worthy crypt]

dcc overall vague i cant remember exactly when this is || you gotta get to the point where hes actively fighting against the system instead of just like participating in it. And theres some itneresting stuff about how the system is set up to perpetuate itself beyond the interest/benefit of any of the participants, even failing to benefit the rich barons that you would think are the primary beneficiaries. Theres also definitely some captialism critique goign on with little notes like one of the corps inventing food that you cant digest without a license and the only reaonable escape from the dungeon being a contractual form of indentured servitude thats basically slavery ||

[sage remnant]

I have so many 0.5, 1,1.5 lol

[worthy crypt]

if something would be 1 i just stop reading it

really if something would be 2 i would stop reading it most of the time too, I only stuck with dcc cause there were some glimmers of hope for the later books and it seemed to be so popular

and hyperion 4 its at the end of a series so i might as well fiunish at this point

[sage remnant]

My recent 0.5 was Hero of Ages and I finished it for this reason

I had already read 1 and 2. Might as well finish it

[worthy crypt]

hyperion 1 and 2 are 5 stars its really such a shame. You can just read the first two if you want its a complete story. its more like two related duologies than a connected set of 4

[sage remnant]

That's what I have heard and am planning to do

1 just have long chapters that I haven't gotten time for yey

and I don't like pausing mid chapter

-# Hence usually I finish discworld books in one sitting as they have no chapter breaks

[white smelt]

I don’t have to hear about the boys again

[mild seal]

Not until the 3 spin offs come out

[modest canyon]

Absolute Superman 6 ||Canonically accurate representation of moving to Kansas||

[foggy mirage]

Gotta be my favorite absolute book currently if not 2nd

[modest canyon]

It’s 3rd for me but I’ve only started to read the og justice league 3

[foggy mirage]

By issue 15th of this not dropping below 2nd for me

[modest canyon]

I’m about to start Flash

[foggy mirage]

Flash ironically the slowest currently

[modest canyon]

Rn for me it’s

1. Wonder Woman
2. Batman
3. Superman

[modest canyon]

I heard 😭

[foggy mirage]

Martian manhunter tends to be number 1

Deniz likely getting Hugo awards

[modest canyon]

How tf does this site have Flash 4.63/5 and Superman 3.74/5

Anywho gonna read first 3 of Flash

Absolute Flash 1 ||These dynamic spreads are sooooooo neat||

Absolute Flash 1 ||Omg it’s the guy from suicide squad||

Absolute Flash 3 ||Jesus fuck…||

Absolute Flash 3 ||This is absurdly beautiful||

[foggy mirage]

Superman hate train

[tawny parcel]

Read the first chapter of smartest guys in the room

This is real out of my wheelhouse

But i was getting it mostly

I think

[worthy crypt]

Iirc you don't really need to know finance to get it it's mainly just negligence and fraud

[tawny parcel]

Even just in like

Prose and stuff

Mainly becausei don’t read nonfiction

But you get used to it by exposing urself

So this style of writing where like, it can sometimes go on little side tangents for a person who’s only somewhat involved, and then just snap back to the main guy Ken

After the ending of the Boys
Hughie realized that superheroes need to go through proper education to go out in the field so he created a school for them a sort of academia for heroes
...a hero academia

X · May 21, 2026, 5:38 AM

I would consider this the canon now

[valid thunder]

Show hasnt even come out

[main lion]

yeah but hes read the book

[sage remnant]

Tldr reason is I don't expect it to be good because its a series like OP where I care about the minor interactions and stuff, which I was already disappointed in OPLA despite it being hailed as a successful adaptation

It's one of the series (like OP) where I want as much source material purity as possible

Which I don't expect to occur

[main lion]

I feel like One Piece is harder to adapt to live action cause of the cartoony elements of those interactions etc though. So wouldnt this be easier to adapt those moments?

[sage remnant]

No I mean non cartoonish moments even

Like Koby and Marines saluting Luffy and Zoro is still one of my fav moments in the series

it sets the aspect respect even for the opposite side foe their action and not for their affiliation

[worthy crypt]

I feel like if it's just gonna be 1:1 what's the point we already got the original. The point is the small changes and hopefully how they improve things in the context of the different medium

[sage remnant]

So minor stuff like those being cut breaks OPLA for me

[sage remnant]

well in other stories, I would agree
But for the stories when I like it for the each moments, I don't care

[main lion]

ah, yeah depends how accurate they want to be. Season 1 changed a LOOOOT for OP. Season 2 was closer to accurate even if it still changed stuff.

I feel like stormlight wouldnt have as much of an uphill battle requiring changes, who knows

[sage remnant]

Like Dune removes a shit ton of book aspects, and still the adaptation is 10/10 for me

[main lion]

different mediums. Some people dont read books. Some people like to reread books, and that same person might enjoy the fresh medium even if they want accuracy to the book

[worthy crypt]

Stormlight seems very adaptable to me

[sage remnant]

It's not a series where I wanted those individual moments adapted compulsorily

[worthy crypt]

I can't think of a single thing where I'm like how can they possibly do that.

Up to end of book 4

[sage remnant]

To make it more palateable to main audience

change tone or make it more accessible or w/e

[worthy crypt]

It's already super accessible it's not that complex or dark

[sage remnant]

Like Mistborn book 1 a change Brandon wants to do is || make Ham a woman ||

that changes a lot about the world and that character for me

It's already a change I hate

[main lion]

why does he want to do that

[sage remnant]

More rep

[main lion]

very dumb

[sage remnant]

Which I ain't opposed to || But he's of a class of people where any woman are either discarded or treated as a lowly prostitute || Mistborn

[main lion]

Im an adaptation purist so regardless of the reason Id dislike that

[sage remnant]

and that changes has ripple effect that makes a lot of my fav stuff in latter book not have any impact

[main lion]

if I were a fan

[sage remnant]

Because in Book 2 || There's a character of that class who's treated as a prostitute for decades who manages to slowly outsmart the assailant and poison him || Mistborn book 2

|| that first change would change the gender roles and implication and change this powerful aspect of struggle and preserverance into a nothing burger ||

And this is for a series I don't even remotely like as much as any Stormlight book lol

[pale trellis]

Yes

[sage remnant]

Idk Stormlight is unadaptable as OP

Stormlight || The whole world is far different than any fantasy world ||

[worthy crypt]

What properties exactly though? I don't see any

[pale trellis]

Twok || takes place in 3 primary locations. Hearthstone, Kharbranth, and The Shattered Plains ||

[worthy crypt]

Stormlight || magic is simpler and easy to adapt. Spren aren't hard to adapt. Singers aren't hard to adapt ||

[sage remnant]

|| the whole flora and fauna? || Stormlight

[worthy crypt]

I dunno I guess I just don't see it

[sage remnant]

Stormlight || Idk if Spren aren't hard to adapt, nothing about OP is either ||

[pale trellis]

|| spren will be hard to adapt without making them look like looney tunes || twok

[sage remnant]

OP has always been 'might be cringe in LA to adapt' than 'harder to adapt"

Until g5 atleast

Or maybe MF

[spiral quest]

It's just not convincing when you watch stuff in OP get adapted

[sage remnant]

MF would be crazy difficult to get even remotely right

[worthy crypt]

Stormlight || they're just little cgi things. Op has a set of powers with very little in common, diversity of imagination. Stormlight has finite powers, everyone is using roughly the same shit ||

[pale trellis]

Stormlight will not be as hard to adapt as people think it is

[sage remnant]

The world OP is set in, at least in s1 material is smth that can be achieved through Set Design

Stormlight not really

|| its more vibrant, more alive, more active ||

[tawny grotto]

In One Piece every devilfruit power is unique and haki or the other power system, also just the cartoon expressions are hardly adaptable

[worthy crypt]

Again I gotta just say I don't see it I guess. It seems pretty standard to me

[sage remnant]

To each their own

[tawny grotto]

Stormlight will be live action right

[spiral quest]

I think stormlight would be easier to be convincing than OP in live action

[sage remnant]

I can't see the world adapted as it was vivid in my imagination without James Cameron Avatar level stuff

OP's entirely different issue

[spiral quest]

But OP's deal is mostly that the manga is just so stylized and cartoon like

[pale trellis]

100000%

[sage remnant]

Like Garp's character massacre wasn't "its not adaptable"

It's writers making fucking ass shitty decision

[spiral quest]

Yeah I am actually right there with you

I dont like OPLA Garp at all

[sage remnant]

Garp is my favorite OP character

and look how they did him...

[pale trellis]

Getting stormlight visually wont be hard at all

[tawny grotto]

Do we know if Stormlight will be animated or liveaction

[sage remnant]

Live Action

[pale trellis]

Live Action

Which will be goated

[sage remnant]

I am finding it crazy to see this opinion here cuz ask any reader like 2 years ago, everyone would be in unison saying it won't be possible to adapt it in LA...

[spiral quest]

I dont know if everyone would have said it

But also things change

People dont hold iron clad opinions their entire lives on media

[sage remnant]

Nothing has changed in the present LA adaptation to have that shift

[pale trellis]

I think that was before people knew sanderson would be given the freedom he is

[spiral quest]

Yes but people could have gained different perspectives

[sage remnant]

Meh. Idk

[spiral quest]

Human beings arent written in stone and change their mind based off things that may not initially even seem related

[pale trellis]

It wont be hard to adapt practically

Not really hard

[spiral quest]

Hell I hated tears of the kingdom, replayed it like a year later and ended up changing my mind a lot on it to really enjoy it

It's just life

[sage remnant]

Idk. My point was influx of readers who have different opinions which I 10 billion percent disagree with

[spiral quest]

That's the fun of being a reader

Or fan

[sage remnant]

Which would be even more so with Stormlight LA

[spiral quest]

Not everyone is gonna agree

[sage remnant]

nah. I am being more of a pessimist on stuff nowadays

Or ig a piece of shit or douche

[spiral quest]

Woah

[jolly ruin]

It will look too damn silly bro

[spiral quest]

It's just books man

[sage remnant]

Calling myself

not yall

[jolly ruin]

Live action is not it

[spiral quest]

I know

[sage remnant]

I have that level of self awareness

[spiral quest]

I am just saying that maybe it's a bit harsh to go that far over media opinions

[pale trellis]

Maybe the spren

But everything else will be fine

[sage remnant]

Because I nowadays don't bother as much talking to people who are on the extreme on a topic

Whether it be media or irl

It anything

[spiral quest]

Idk if that makes you a pos or a douche

[sage remnant]

Because I don't gain anything constructive ig

[worthy crypt]

I would just say don't give up before they even get a chance to try

[sage remnant]

It feels douchey behavior

[worthy crypt]

Who knows maybe they nail it

[spiral quest]

QBZ makes a good point

[sage remnant]

I mean for sure but I have hardly been disproved

the only instance in last few years have been Project Hail Mary

[spiral quest]

Besides, being a real hater is waiting for the thing to come out, see how it turns out and then point out to everyone how they were wrong

[sage remnant]

Real

Ig but idk post OPLA me strives on hating

[spiral quest]

I mean I agree with you, OPLA isnt very good at all to me

[worthy crypt]

Phm || that one scene where he turns on the petrova scope while looking over the planet where they collect the astrophage predator looked so good ||

[spiral quest]

But doesnt have to color everything man

[sage remnant]

Yeah

[sage remnant]

it did sadly...

With regards to adaptation

Or w/e

[spiral quest]

Were you super hopeful for OPLA

[sage remnant]

Not at all

[spiral quest]

Then I am a bit confused I guess

[sage remnant]

And even then it was disappointing

That's how disappointing it was lol

Because visuals wise and production wise and casting wise

They fucking nailed it

[spiral quest]

I dislike OPLA a ton but it didnt ruin everything else for me

[sage remnant]

So it could have been GREAT

[limber urchin]

Nevernight: Darkdawn, Ch12: ||LOL "How evil can I make this Duomo guy?" - Jay Kristoff||

[sage remnant]

Who was that again

Fuzzy memory

[sage remnant]

I have had that recently.
Stranger things made me change from a man who hardly dropped things to man who wouldn't care at all nowadays

Sunk cost fallacy aint gonna work on me post it

[spiral quest]

I mean

Man I hated ST since the end of S4, but that doesnt erase the highs of stuff like S1

[sage remnant]

Man sab you are misunderstanding my point

That wasn't my point at all

[spiral quest]

I suppose I am

Please explain

[limber urchin]

Nevernight: Darkdawn Ch12: ||Mia is on a ship where the captain is kind of a smooth talker. But he was also at the final tournament of book 2 where she killed both Duomo and "Scaeva" in front of everyone. And she thought she was going to need to leave his ship after causing Luminati soldiers to investigate it at sea a chapter ago. But he told her she can stay as long as she likes, because by killing Duomo (the priest in those above paragraphs) she unknowingly got revenge for this captain's younger brother that was abused as a child at Duomo's hands.||

[sage remnant]

It's the fact that something is so bad it changed my outlook on a category or phenomenon or w/e

OPLA did that to the category/notion of Adaptations

[spiral quest]

Gotcha

[sage remnant]

ST did to giving more time to things/sunk cost fallacy stuff

ST s1 is still a darn good season of television

It does so many things righy

[limber urchin]

Fun Fact: I turned on OPLA season 2 again last night. I watch it and think of Goro.

[spiral quest]

In that case, I think maybe youre putting a lot of weight into one particular property, no matter how bad it is, and letting it color how you view potential new properties

[sage remnant]

Awww

[worthy crypt]

I tried to read the king in yellow recently but didn't really grip me I think ima give up and move on to necromancer. I feel like i hold short stories to a higher bar but not sure if that's fair

[sage remnant]

King in Yellow is so amazing...

[limber urchin]

Oh, the King in Yellow is on my list

[sage remnant]

But if it doeajt work for you, then it doesn't

necromancer would be good for you Qbz

[worthy crypt]

The first 3 stories were fine

[sage remnant]

have you read Snow Crash

oh wait have you heard of Fonda Lee

[limber urchin]

i watched snow crash

[sage remnant]

if you like her stuff or are interested, you might like Last Contract of Isako qbz

[worthy crypt]

But they should be hitting their own little peaks. They're complete stories. So I don't feel bad prejudging it cause I'm judging complete units

Snow crash || Is that the movie where the guy fights to the front of the train ||

[sage remnant]

That's Bullet train

[worthy crypt]

Oh i meant to say neuromancer I just realized it got autod to necromancer

Oh no I was thinking of snowpiercer

[sage remnant]

Yep

[sage remnant]

Ohh

[limber urchin]

You know how that made you feel confused? That's how I would feel if you asked me questions about Stormlight right now.

[sage remnant]

dude its been idk half a decade or so for me soo

And I have goldfish memory

[limber urchin]

I know, that's usually how it goes for media. You remember that which you spend the most time with.

Like, I know ASOIAF ok-ish.

and OP a little

and buffy

beyond that? i'm not too great

[sage remnant]

I remember OP, Naruto, Castle, and a bunch of Anime properly

[worthy crypt]

I've read like every single asoiaf theory i was in deep in the 2010s

bro when he writes sex scenes lmfao

[worthy crypt]

Adwd || yeah my impression is he's the obvious scapegoat. He has little to gain and everything to lose. All his power is based on Dany. Then the shavepate uses the implication to goad barristan into moving against hizdar. Excellent chapter bc it reads like a heroic climax but it's dumb barristan being wielded like a tool ||

[sage remnant]

Acotar book 1 || After that fire festival ||

[sage remnant]

He's bad at it

imma say it

[tacit basin]

oh that

[limber urchin]

I have read very few in my life, so I have nothing to compare it to besides.......GRRM.

[sage remnant]

I have read enough fanfics...

[tacit basin]

ACOTAR ||wym by mmc||

[sage remnant]

🏃‍♂️

[limber urchin]

it's like, really intense and detailed haha

[tacit basin]

i know what you are!

[sage remnant]

|| Male main character ||acotar

[limber urchin]

iv'e written a buffy fanfic

you'll never fucking see it

[tacit basin]

good

[limber urchin]

but it's not naughty or anything lol

[tacit basin]

acotar series ||tamlin a fuckin CUNT anyways so like||

[sage remnant]

How did you think about that ending part btw

[tacit basin]

acotar ||fun fact tamlin made me realize i should breka up with my ex 2 years ago||

[sage remnant]

|| the answer being love and everyone going "Woahhhh" like its not the most fucking obvious thing || acotar

[tacit basin]

im so deadass abt that btw

acotar ||i left him while reading book 2 and continued reading with NO remorse||

[limber urchin]

ADWD ||Wait, are you talking about the lone Barristan chapter in ADWD? I love that one. Also, yeah you're probably right about the scapegoat. I think I just default to it because George wants you to think that way, only so he can pull the rug out from under you.||

[sage remnant]

[tacit basin]

book 5 where it at

[sage remnant]

Quicksilver is where its good at

-# its so bad except smut

[limber urchin]

Are there authors that can actually write good sex scenes, in detail, without it feeling somewhat carnal?

[tacit basin]

except FOR the smut?

all of yall r freaks wtfff

[tacit basin]

prolly not

[worthy crypt]

Adwd yeah || the one where he kills all the Pitt fighters hizdar has as bodyguards and the one guy is like old man I'll eat your heart || see I still got all this on recall cause I read it like 4 times. I've gotten everything there is to get outta it

[sage remnant]

quicksilver is my fav in a long time for that but it still does feel carnal

[limber urchin]

I guess carnal comes with the territory naturally.

[sage remnant]

Well I like them that way anyway 🏃‍♂️

[tacit basin]

acotar series ||i iwll credit sarah j maas for not writing SUPER explicit smut scenes. makes it bearable||

[sage remnant]

This is a positive space clippy

[limber urchin]

yep that's the one. good shit

[sage remnant]

Don't kink shame us

[tacit basin]

pg13 server btw

[sage remnant]

Oops

[limber urchin]

[tacit basin]

[sage remnant]

YOU HAD PROBLEMS WITH ME USING THE S WORDD

Hmmm

[main lion]

I dont like action movies

The drama ain't it for me nowadays, and the "yearning" ain't enough

[tacit basin]

[sage remnant]

Cuz its a different opinion than common and I resort people who have that

[tacit basin]

never mention this here again

[main lion]

yeah but idc for it

[sage remnant]

That has gotten so mainstream now clippy

[main lion]

I dont really get into medieval fantasy usually

[sage remnant]

I had seen images of it on Barnes and Nobles

In the front section

[limber urchin]

I'm going to burn every copy of Haikyuu you own

[sage remnant]

So based

[tacit basin]

idc

[valid thunder]

Do u mean respect

[tacit basin]

never say it again

[sage remnant]

Ye

typo

[sage remnant]

Ok ok

[main lion]

thats not nice :(((

[sage remnant]

Medieval fantasy sucks

[valid thunder]

Bro just likes contrarian opinions

[limber urchin]

ok i won't. You playing FF16 is funny as hell though now

[tawny grotto]

So different reactions

[sage remnant]

LoTR is still amazing.

[tacit basin]

WHAT

[sage remnant]

Tho I like it less and less every year

[main lion]

yeah the setting of that game sucks I only care about the characters lol

[valid thunder]

No merit to a opinion for being different ( not a slight to red )

[tawny grotto]

Lord of the BORINGS

[limber urchin]

someone boo this man

[tacit basin]

what is WRONG with you all

[tawny grotto]

[sage remnant]

Clippy you have given me this reaction to this message 3 times already

[limber urchin]

medieval shit my beloved

[tacit basin]

buffy gets it..

maybe

[sage remnant]

Like 2 times in Offtopic

[limber urchin]

me like swords and knights and dragons and shit

[valid thunder]

Tsa is also medievalish

[tacit basin]

i like castles and whimsy and mermaids

[sage remnant]

See that kinda takes fucking annoy me

[tawny grotto]

Hell yeah

[sage remnant]

Did you even read it

[limber urchin]

I also like mermaids such as the ones at FMI

[tacit basin]

flowy dresses and faeires

[valid thunder]

Obv

[sage remnant]

We already talked why it ain't medieval btw mirio

Like had a 3 hour long discussion half a year ago

[valid thunder]

True

[main lion]

whimsy exists outside of medieval aesthetics

[sage remnant]

Medieval is also overdone

like gimme Arabic setting

gimme ancient china

Gimme feudal japan

[valid thunder]

Also overdone

[limber urchin]

Fantasy? Man, I love Berserk. My favorite western medieval-ish series.

[sage remnant]

Like dude read some Steampunk

read some silkpunk

[sage remnant]

?????

Give me 1 good series

I'll wait

[tawny grotto]

Stormlight has aspects that a medieval fantasy guy would like but the setting is different

[valid thunder]

Idk about good fantasy but arabic setting is common in media

[sage remnant]

Ye

[tacit basin]

wait involve me

[sage remnant]

A proper Arabic setting I mean

[tacit basin]

where

[limber urchin]

one piece

if you read it

[tacit basin]

i already don't we know this

[tawny grotto]

The show will just have Super Mario desert soundtrack on loop

[sage remnant]

Wait this concerns @limber urchin as well

Read Lotus War

[tawny grotto]

Irl

[sage remnant]

why are you reading fucking nevernight when you could rear his better trilogy

[main lion]

goro mentioned plenty. Fantasy can exist in non "stone castle" settings

[sage remnant]

Combination of Steampunk and feudal Japan

[valid thunder]

Isnt mistbroj era 2 steampunk as well

[sage remnant]

Grrrrrrer

[limber urchin]

I'm aware of that one. But I also see mixed opinions.

doesn't harsh hate it?

[vale mica]

what is silkpunk? like silk road trade stuff?

[tacit basin]

yes like pirate ships

[main lion]

exactly, like pirate ships

[tacit basin]

love a good pirate story

[limber urchin]

and sometimes volleyball courts

[tacit basin]

if only there was one with 1180 ish chapters

[main lion]

yeah then you could read the remaining 100 chs you havent read yet

[sage remnant]

Read Dandelion dynasty

[tacit basin]

author ?

[limber urchin]

where the hell is my chapter......

i'm sick of these BREAKS

[tawny grotto]

Its been like MONTHS

[sage remnant]

Jay kristoff

[tawny grotto]

We barely even getting any chapters nowadays

[limber urchin]

ooooh wait. i think i was confusing it with poppy war?

[sage remnant]

Dandelion Dynasty

[limber urchin]

was that a trilogy too?

[sage remnant]

Yes

[limber urchin]

ok so Jay wrote the one you were talking about.

[sage remnant]

Yes

[limber urchin]

ah but i'm gonna put jay down for a bit after nevernight

[tacit basin]

sounds great and all but i HAVe to read acotar you see

[sage remnant]

This has || dragons || Dandelion Dynasty

[main lion]

like instead of making a building that a ruler lives in a stone castle, make them live in like, a giant seashell... or a giant piece of poop!

[sage remnant]

Clippy

[tacit basin]

beg ur pardon

[limber urchin]

I'd live in a giant seashell

not poop though

[valid thunder]

||I dislike dragons in fantasy lowk|| dandelion dynasty

[tacit basin]

"i dislike a major feature of fantasy" ok

[limber urchin]

[tawny grotto]

Make him live in a pineapple under the sea

[tacit basin]

we ALL wish dragons were real

[sage remnant]

Dandelion dynasty

look at these

[limber urchin]

https://tenor.com/view/komodo-dragon-komodo-hype-komodo-lizard-yawn-gif-19958764

[valid thunder]

I just dont like dragons

[sage remnant]

This is fantasy...

[sage remnant]

Based

[limber urchin]

I love dragons

[sage remnant]

They lowk overrated

[main lion]

seashell house or poop icecream cone house, its genius

[tacit basin]

httyd peak

🥩

[tawny grotto]

I just thought that earlier lol. Saw a newspaper that said our zoo has DRAGONS now (they mean komodowarans)

Then I had to imagine how it would be like to discover a real dragon

[valid thunder]

I liked them in uhh earthsea

[sage remnant]

And this Mf doesn't read Soara and Monsters house

[valid thunder]

That's bout it

[main lion]

aint that still kinda medieval fantasy adjacent

[tacit basin]

some company would immediately try to capture it and make money off of the poor creature

we live in a cruel world

[limber urchin]

it would probably kill everything until we put it down sadly

[sage remnant]

Kinda but it focuses on interesting parts and not the boring parts like knights and castles

[limber urchin]

it breathes fire

[main lion]

gotcha

[tacit basin]

"until we put it down" let the mf kill us
its a dragon
we are notthe top of the food chain

[limber urchin]

but if we study it, buffy becomes a dragon one day

splice its DNA with mine

[sage remnant]

Do interesting stories like Orcs introducing capitalism in medieval fantady

I forgot which book that was but it was done badly so gimme a good story of that premise

[main lion]

thats still the same setting tho

still medieval fantasy...

[limber urchin]

The Hobbit ||With this planet's luck, we'd get an asshole like Smaug who would fit right in with the 1%.||

[tawny grotto]

Yeah my daydreaming involved if id even be willing to show this to the world or kept it hidden

[sage remnant]

yeah but that aspect would lead to interesting setting if developed

and the transition is fun to read

Ripple effect of a change and all that

[tacit basin]

id keep it hidden

[main lion]

thats just some like

isekai bs

goro

[sage remnant]

isekai bs do it bad

[limber urchin]

The Hobbit ||Is an Isekai adjacent btw||

[sage remnant]

Isekai's problem isn't the concept really

It's them being superficial about it

and being wish fulfillment bs

[limber urchin]

If I travel to Japan, is that irl isekai?

[main lion]

I mean realistically you can make an interesting story out of any concept but I do find some concepts to be overplayed and inherently less interesting to me

[tacit basin]

warrior cats is the best fantasy idk what we're on abt

[main lion]

you're just suggesting the "this setting, but with a twist!" thing that so many anime do

[limber urchin]

Thunder Cats

[main lion]

so its hard for me to get behind it

[sage remnant]

This setting but with a twist, and fastforward to 50 years with that twist

[tawny grotto]

Hoooly based

[sage remnant]

So the setting develops into smth more interesting

[tacit basin]

have you actually read em?

[tawny grotto]

I read season 1

When I was a kid to teenager

[tacit basin]

👀

[limber urchin]

Red should read Empire of the Vampire. no medieval.

[main lion]

your only way to avoid your biggest pitfall with urban fantasy... have the fantasy elements introduced to our world during the story and then flashforward to major change

[tacit basin]

season 1 you mean the first series in the saga

[tawny grotto]

Yeah lol

[tacit basin]

i read up to half of 3

[jolly ruin]

Is there a western isekai series?

[tawny grotto]

Its called the same word as season in german

[limber urchin]

Buffy probably falls under urban fantasy in a way, and it's great

[tacit basin]

i need to get back to it catch up on the lore

[sage remnant]

I mean, that's what you should do for good worldbuilding

[main lion]

I dont have the attention span for novels anymore

[tawny grotto]

Do you remember what happened at the end of the first series

[tacit basin]

vividly

i have the first 8 books

[limber urchin]

Look what the modern era has done to us!

[main lion]

😔

[limber urchin]

society amirite?

[tacit basin]

warrior cats into the wild END ||dude tigerstar dying was brutal||

[jolly ruin]

Does that also affect your ability to read manga,

[main lion]

manga all I got

[main lion]

no

pretty picture

:3

[sage remnant]

Like my usual example,
Remove concept of electricity and imagine it's a world where it can't exist at all. It would be a completely different world.
Magic would have similar effect but 100 fold

[jolly ruin]

:3

[limber urchin]

I have some manga

[tacit basin]

i have too much manga

[limber urchin]

you have too much western comics (disgusting)

[main lion]

real and true

[tacit basin]

200+ :3

[main lion]

tell her buffy

[main lion]

how many have you read

[limber urchin]

she even plans to buy the shitty buffy comics

[sage remnant]

Buffy has too much buffy

[tacit basin]

[limber urchin]

never too much Sarah Michelle Gellar

[main lion]

stop buying them then...

[tacit basin]

most are for my .. collection.. dw..

[tawny grotto]

Warrior Cats end of series 1
||This had me shitless lol. He was built up so much and had all 9 lives and that other guy tore him up||

[limber urchin]

and she just got a job. it's so over

[sage remnant]

She got???

Congrats clippy

Weren't you in an interview just yesterday

[limber urchin]

yeah, you're looking at the next star pupil of Starbucks!

[main lion]

im sorry for your loss. Life was better when I was a neet

[sage remnant]

You get them this fast

[toxic pebble]

I feel like the Joker (2019). 40 hour work week

[tacit basin]

warrior cats into the wild END ||there has to be some meaning behind why that happened, theme wise not just power. but jeez him choking on his own blood was crazy to read as a kid. imagine how much more gruesome the series would be if they weren't cats||

[tawny grotto]

Warrior Cats end of series 1 ||and hindsight this is like some certain shonen endings were 1 villain just gets replaced by another||

[limber urchin]

take me back to the 90s, make me young agaaaaain

[tacit basin]

i suggest reading the second series too, its really cool

[sage remnant]

But yeah everyone read Dandelion Dynasty

bless yourselves with some silkpunk

[tacit basin]

dont remind me ,im trying to be unemployed before monday rolls around

[limber urchin]

Silkpunk sounds like Silksong DLC

[sage remnant]

and not be stuck with most boring fantasy subgenee

[limber urchin]

your first week or so will be fine because it's training I bet.

[sage remnant]

(medieval)

[tacit basin]

i have at least 180 comics that are logged on my profile. then there's a good fat stack i haven't touched yet , send help

[limber urchin]

damn y'all really like logging shit online don't you?

[tacit basin]

[sage remnant]

Yes

[tacit basin]

i got a free buffy magazine yesterday

[limber urchin]

[tawny grotto]

I think thats around the same ones that I have, give or take 1

[main lion]

im gonna walk into your starbucks and make my name "Eclippy is very stupid" so you have to say it out loud

[sage remnant]

I even logged my owned books in a google sheet

[tacit basin]

each series is 6

[limber urchin]

there hasn't been a magazine interviewing sarah since probably 2003

[tacit basin]

!eclippy

[past panther]

stupid stinky doo doo head

[tacit basin]

sorry. comic magazine featuring buffy

[tawny grotto]

Yeah I think I have the first of 2

Plus an extra book

[limber urchin]

My buddy did "thunder justice" once at Panera Bread and they said it, but also chuckled at the same time. it's the little things

[tacit basin]

W i want all the warriors books with the OG covers

[limber urchin]

ohhhhh

[sage remnant]

These damn collectors

Clippy how does it feel to know I have a more ancient and rare LoTR edition than you

[tacit basin]

i dont really collect books

uh i feel fine

im not a lotr freak

[sage remnant]

dammit

[tawny grotto]

Warrior Cats season 1 or 2 extra book (?) ||where Firestar and Sandstorm go to a different place to help others create a new clan||

[main lion]

they mustve been new, they probably hate their lives now..

[limber urchin]

i like books. the smell nice. but not as nice as a freshly opened pack of TCG/gambling

[tacit basin]

i have the most maximum ride stuff, that's my vice

[sage remnant]

Smh

[tacit basin]

all the novels, all the manga, few extra novel copies, and the full comic series
and the first comic, signed by the author

[sage remnant]

I have almost all of Agatha Christie stuff

[tacit basin]

this is series 2

[limber urchin]

have you ever worked food service? I did twice. It's mostly OK, and then you get the one guest or family that tests your sense of morality.

[sage remnant]

My best collection probably

It's like idk 60 books?

[limber urchin]

i'm surprised it's not more

you're like THE book guy, Goro

[tacit basin]

J*b

[sage remnant]

Nah

Its harsh

and uhh Juba

[limber urchin]

harsh is the movie guy

i'm the nothing guy

[modern lichen]

i'm also the book guy

[main lion]

I have but I feel the opposite. Its always ass. Miserable every waking moment...

[tacit basin]

my prized possession, genuinley

[sage remnant]

I don't even read anything other than Fantasy, scifi, Mystery

I think

[limber urchin]

but you've seen sooooo many goddamn movies, it borders on surreal

[modern lichen]

it doesnt matter

i like movies

[sage remnant]

harsh has seen like 8600 movies

[modern lichen]

i like books

[tacit basin]

what the hell

[sage remnant]

Its crazy

[modern lichen]

i cannot keep an accurate count

but i've watched more

[limber urchin]

"um, Red, I asked for this steak medium well, and it's medium."

[main lion]

I bought one of those shitty under the desk treadmills the other day so I might start watching movies a bit more

while I walk

[tacit basin]

ive had invincible for over a year and haven't picked it up

[modern lichen]

you're good off that

[sage remnant]

I can't wait to get a stable job and get back to reading more and working on my book

[tacit basin]

lmao

[sage remnant]

job hunt sucks and this current job sucks

[limber urchin]

i knew someone at work who used a treadmill desk. I tried it, i don't know HOW they drew and used that.

[modern lichen]

that's a pipe dream bud

[limber urchin]

i will beta read it unironically

[main lion]

drawing at the same time is crazy wtf lol

[modern lichen]

stable job doesnt automatically give you the time to read more

[sage remnant]

Stable jobs are a dream...

[tacit basin]

i have a cool foil print of the first invinci issue somewhere, actually

[limber urchin]

yeah, it's like fucking sorcery to see them do it

[sage remnant]

More than continuously being on job search

[modern lichen]

job hunts do suck

[limber urchin]

i have to read at night right before bed, it's the only way for me

[modern lichen]

but i did recently get an offer

[sage remnant]

I would send

[main lion]

I cant do the fake smile shit so Id just be perpetually straight faced. But Id still have a good tone. So Id have customer service voice but my face looks like " 😐 " at the same time. Would occasionally get the karen that says "you know you could smile"

wanted to kms

[sage remnant]

Yeah you told

[main lion]

(not literally)

[limber urchin]

I also write, but not novels. though maybe one day

[modern lichen]

novels are hard work

[sage remnant]

I have been just worldbuilding and planning for so long but haven't gotten to writing it yet

[modern lichen]

i'll write one soon

[tacit basin]

man i forgot i have horrible rbf, i might be screwed

[sage remnant]

I have gotten most of the setting down the way I want it

[limber urchin]

ahh, yeah I enjoyed it so it was easier for me. i had a harder time smiling when i did pure customer service. but restaraunts I handled better

[main lion]

I do too dw, I managed to stick around there for like 2 years before quitting

lol

[limber urchin]

man writing anything is fucking hard. so much harder than art lol

[main lion]

nuh uh

I write all the time

like that

[sage remnant]

Nah art is hard

[main lion]

and that

see

[tacit basin]

i love writing

[limber urchin]

with art I at least have muscle memory. i have to think so much more with writing

[tacit basin]

i keep getting ideas for a thesis on Alien i wanna write

[main lion]

nah art is fucking hard. Ive been on and off learning since january. Its so hard to find the motivation to practice via repetition

[limber urchin]

what is rbf?

[tacit basin]

resting bitch face

[limber urchin]

oh lmfao

[limber urchin]

me at college at 4am covered in oil paint on my pants with oil paint fumes choking my lungs on my 4th cup of coffee: "yeah this is the good shit"

[sage remnant]

But you gotta do it man. Marc has been doing consistently for a year now I think and he's so good now

I think more than a year

@jolly heath how long has been your art journey?

[limber urchin]

oh and red, yeah getting good at art will recquire extreme amounts of repetition to improve, so you do have to be OK with that

[modern lichen]

the mandalorian season 2 || https://fixupx.com/LordDagovere/status/2057116888489164986 || just remembered this show looked good actually, but the 180 degree rule being broken so hard is killing me, headache inducing

Darius (@LordDagovere)

Currently rewatching the Mandalorian and this part still gives me chills.

Warrior Cats series 2
||Wait. I think the extra book was inbetween 1 and 2 because iirc Sandstorm was pregnant in that one, and start of 2 they had a child. But I might be wrong||

[tacit basin]

speaking of art, I'd like to visit the HR Giger Museum exhibit if i get a chance in life

[limber urchin]

king shit

[main lion]

ye Ive had convos in DMs with marc about it. Its just hard. My biggest issue with anything is just STARTING. And sticking with that thing. I will occasionally have nights where I just draw for 3 hours

but then Ill go a week where I dont at all

[tacit basin]

its absolutely insane and stunning

[limber urchin]

do you have any known ADHD?

[tawny parcel]

Consistency is the key man. All the best

[modern lichen]

[modern lichen]

[limber urchin]

art is a semi "you lose it if you don't use it" but parts of it will always remain

[modern lichen]

[limber urchin]

OK I found it. Yeha you're doing great marc, that's the kind of stuff we were expected to practice in school

[tawny grotto]

Yeah that one

[tacit basin]

i never read those ones, only the series'

[limber urchin]

you'll be a pro in no time

[jolly heath]

[tacit basin]

i want to reread all of warrior cats i just need time

[limber urchin]

[tawny grotto]

You will be hired to design the flora and fauna in the Stormlight series

[tacit basin]

i can recite the prologue from book 1 tho

[jolly heath]

i havent read stormlight (yet i guess) so the designs will be ass... its stormver...

[sage remnant]

Marc if you ever draw a manga, I'll be your first reader

[main lion]

tch, nothing on my ms paint drawing I did just now. Skill issue....

[jolly heath]

🧎‍♂️

[limber urchin]

is that with a mouse?

[tawny parcel]

I see the potential

[sage remnant]

I recommended this man it when it was obscure than now btw

[main lion]

yeah

[sage remnant]

like 5 years ago

[limber urchin]

that's good for a mouse

[sage remnant]

😔

[tacit basin]

its better than what i could do

[tawny grotto]

Warrior Cats special adventures ||I read that one and a bit of another which was the backstory of Bluestar||

[jolly heath]

i think i read a few chapters but eventually stopped cause i was rereading jojo i believe lol

or something like that

[limber urchin]

craig mullins did quite a bit of his early pro concept art in the 90s and 2000s with a mouse I believe

[tacit basin]

warrior cats in general ||bluestar my fav <3||

[modern lichen]

i always say i will start practicing my art again but i cannot now

[limber urchin]

life amirite

that how it is with me and writing

[modern lichen]

i'm reading and writing though

[tacit basin]

if i could draw i'd be unstoppable

[tawny parcel]

I want to either write or draw

I need to actually do it tho

[sage remnant]

Only reading nowadays

[tawny parcel]

And stop being a bum

[sage remnant]

And watching a bit of movies

[tawny grotto]

I want to do both (and rn im a chud who does neither)

[limber urchin]

both require repetition via lots of practice, the one thing most don't want to do haha. it's a painful process in a way, but you have to love the process itself

[main lion]

like physically cant or motivationally

[sage remnant]

Responsibility wise

[main lion]

ahhh

[sage remnant]

dude's running a company

[tawny grotto]

Yeah that kills me sadly I lose focus too quickly

[sage remnant]

harsh's a CEO

[tawny parcel]

Me and harsh are just money making moguls

[tawny grotto]

I draw sometimes but not consistently so that I would be able to say im definitely getting better

[jolly heath]

in the off time for drawing i "write" (though i havent jotted stuff down cause most of it is nebulous so its in my head lol) what i want my comic to be about so its like 1.5 birds 1 stone...

[main lion]
