the online popularity of classic wizards is indicative of society finally beginning to heal n recover from the Harry Potter's influence
Things going well is pretty nice and all but by god does it decimate your excuses. You'll be sleepy at work and be like "by god, I'm not even besieged by the horrors currently. I just need to go to bed earlier."
i think it's great when someone tries to pull off a tragic self-sacrifice in a story and there's at least one guy who's just like "no this is fucking stupid actually. you're an idiot." about it. because it kind of is. i love a good tragedy but let's be honest with ourselves if a friend tried to indulge a noble sacrifice fantasy would you not be a little annoyed. like come on man.
In my humble opinion, Coraline is one of the best movie adaptations out there because it actually strays away from the book a lot and adds/changes several different things, but it does so all for the sake of a visual medium which is exactly what a movie adaptation should do!
There’s nothing showing the Beldam making the doll but darn it if that’s not the most aesthetically pleasing scene in stop motion animation:
The appearance of the tunnel is never described (other than it being musty and her feeling a force behind her) so they made a psychedelic tube:
In the book, she meets the three ghost children at a generic picnic but the movie, for reasons I will always love, decided to show them against an animated, interconnecting, version of the Starry Night:
The blue hair, the garden, the world falling apart—
Everything is tweaked to be more visually pleasing.
Which is the point of turning a book into a movie in the first place!
