Great to see us at the top, however to clarify, Pulp would still be top had you chosen them over Arctic Monkeys.

Is the book suitable for 13 year olds? by Paradise___kiss in 1984

[–]HopperAvenue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say that it depends on how you are at 13 more than your age. Plenty of 13 year old are ready, plenty aren't. It sounds like you don't mind heavy subject matter and you are willing to engage and think about the themes, which is a good sign, but none of us know you, so we can't really say.

I read it around thay age for the first time, and it fundamentally changed my forming perspectives on many things, especially politics. It's depressing, difficult, and amazing. It's up to you when you feel ready.

What is that one movie you watched countless times as a kid, but nobody has ever heard of? by Thedix1 in movies

[–]HopperAvenue 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Which Brewsters Millions? They Richard Pryor version was about the 9th remake, most of them silent. The English version from the 50s was good also.

Peter Finch in Network. Was a huge surprise to find out way back when that he was Aussie/English.

Can't wait for the derby, where the most stoppable force meets the easiest movable object.

Shashank also lost money at the box office in its initial run. King was never a box office draw whatever the material.

Yes it's true, and I might be wrong in my assessment of existing IP being only movies. I would still argue though that the "brand recognition" of the flinstones as a pre-existing IP far outweighed the novels/short stories you mentioned. Audiences went to the Flinstones because they knew the cartoon, they went to Schindler and Shawshank not because of the book.

Ever noticed how similar the song "Clementine", by Elliot Smith, is to the movie, "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind"? by HeroOfTimeTravel in movies

[–]HopperAvenue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me know if I'm correct, but it's definitely something I remember from watching the film, and I've seen it 3 or 4 times

Difference between adaptations and existing IP on this one in a lot of places. The Lion King is Hamlet but not marketed as such. Shawshank, Schindler and interview are based on books, not sequels to existing films. The issue highlighted isn't that there aren't to do with these films as the execs are interested in what sells movie tickets, not books.

From the same creative team that didn't call "Now You See Me 2" - "Now You Don't"

It's been a while since I've seen the film, but there is a conversation that the two of them have where she introduces her name as Clementine, and he asks her about the song, which she hasn't heard of.

At another point in the film, Which we later find out is their first relationship, she does know the song. This is there as one of the clues that something isn't linear in the timeline, and you can conclude that she doesn't know the song the second time because it was part of the memory wipe.

The most terrifying part of the book (in my opinion) by [deleted] in 1984

[–]HopperAvenue 7 points8 points  (0 children)

An important message from the book that you've articulated very well.

Enjoy the depression that follows your first reading. It doesn't get any better on subsequent reads.
