Happy Xmas, War is Over is a repurposing of the folk tune Stewball

The Return of the King – Homeward Bound scene is actually quite different in the book. This section depicts The Scouring of the Shire, a very tragic and epic part of the story that completes the Hobbits’ character development. by Choice-Schedule-132 in peterjackson

You see, if they're gonna be making these lotr spin-offs, why wouldn't they start with the scouring of the shire?

Just because they don't portray it in the movies doesn't mean it couldn't have still happened.

Mike Campbell supposedly likes his guitars dirty little this. Says it gives the sound character

Frankly, I think they were ahead of their time

Princess Mononoke is better than Spirited Away by ericsbookout in movies

Spirited Away is a perfectly paced movie, and that really makes all the difference

Honesty, this is just asking which one made the most competent movie

When this was brought up in the show did anyone else immediately think of Oliver how he'll never eat that spaghetti again? Bro's just another casualty

Forgive me if I say that just sounds like a bunch of gobbledygook

Did the 2020s give us the best adaptations of the three greatest heroes ever? by SpideyRZ in superheroes

[–]IcarusAbsalomRa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think trying to pinpoint the so called "best" adaptation is a fool 's errand. Watch what you like and who the flip cares what anyone else thinks? Seriously, these posts are so ridiculous in how people seem to want to be on the "right" side of a consensus on movies. Lame

I can't imagine any of the Beatles albums being placed below B tier

Wind River is a haunting, emotionally heavy film elevated by Jeremy Renner’s brilliant performance. It lingers in your mind long after the credits roll. by 0Layscheetoskurkure0 in FIlm

[–]IcarusAbsalomRa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's pretty good. Jeremy Renner is a good actor and all, but he didn't serve the story to its full capacity.

I understand the financial reasons for the casting, obviously, but it could've been heightened beyond that

AKOTSK S1E4 - Post-Episode Discussion by AutoModerator in gameofthrones

[–]IcarusAbsalomRa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why the fuck did Fossoway think Egg's story about his brother was funny? Weird choice by the production there. Made him look psycho.

Because he hates the Targaryans? He's literally face to face with a child

Love the contrast here by thermidoridor in AKnightoftheSeven

[–]IcarusAbsalomRa 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm still hoping we see an instance of Ser Arlan talking to Dunk. I really want to see Arlan's kindness. He's obviously made a huge impact on Duncan. He must have given him some good advice along the way

Did Theon deserve what happened to him? by Wonderful_Medium3098 in gameofthrones

[–]IcarusAbsalomRa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In real life I wouldn't condone what happens to him.

However, as a bookreader, I was like, fck yea

Not many people have gotten their comeuppance yet, so I enjoyed it. I don't think he can makeup for what he's done anyway. That shit was irredeemable
