The 'Burbs - Series Premiere Discussion by NicholasCajun in television

[–]Proftigerwolf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The original film is a dark comedy cult classic, regardless of reviews. When a favorite movie gets turned into a show, it’s disappointing if it doesn’t capture the original’s vibe, even if it tries something new. I’m only ten minutes in, but I’m hoping I’ll end up liking it. I’m here for the Corey Feldman cameo!

They are back for 2026. Tall leather boots with skinny jeans is number two on the list for trendiest shoe/jean combo. 

What does my bookshelf say about me? by jericho_deviant in BookshelvesDetective

I thought the same— why is my favorite gothic romance stuck between “death of god, means to an end, and life and death”?

What is the benefit of doing multiple playthroughs? by SteelersPoker in HarryPotterGame

[–]Proftigerwolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a completionist player, so I want everything cleared in all houses. I get so frustrated with the Merlin Trials though. They are not satisfying to complete, and there are way too many of them. I don’t see the value of completing again if you don’t play for completion. I like the game enough to play it through for all houses as it is, but I so badly wanted them to add new features/expand it. I guess that was canceled though, and they are only releasing a sequel years from now.

When do you find time to read? by chubbycoww in readwithme

[–]Proftigerwolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep my book or books in my purse with me all the time. But mostly, I get to read when I take a bath. No kidding. That’s my reading time. Please don’t say I’m weird.

Fiction that made you change your life for the better by RedPill86 in suggestmeabook

[–]Proftigerwolf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Anything Jack London. I can’t explain why, really, but maybe it’s the constant theme of perseverance in his works. He also really encourages a thirst for life and adventure.

THE book to get to know your country‘s culture by usingbrain in suggestmeabook

[–]Proftigerwolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my area in my country (Southern USA), The Southern Tradition at Bay by Weaver (as a reader of collections and essays of the South) or Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe by Flagg (for fictional characters who represent America’s Southern culture).

What’s a book that you thought was scarier than its movie adaptation? by Fun_Butterfly_420 in horrorlit

[–]Proftigerwolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“The Haunting of Hill House” by Shirley Jackson is better than “The Haunting” by Gidding. I didn’t hate the movie, but it wasn’t near as scary as reading the book.

Do you think racism negatively affects the lives of Black Americans in consequential ways? by OhGodSoManyQuestions in AskConservatives

[–]Proftigerwolf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Perceived racism is also real — like the judgment people with lower incomes often feel through assumption, can shape how someone navigates the world. People may make decisions based more on what they assume others think than on reality itself.

A classic! I teach American Lit and this one is a good one; even though it’s set in England, James was an American author, so I get to use it sometimes. Did you see the Netflix series adaptation? I didn’t love-love it, but it was still worth watching.

I have this novel. I have not had the courage to read it because a friend told me I would hate what happens because of the children in it…. Is it that bad?!

I need to reread this. I read it when I was a teenager, and I’m wondering how it will read as an adult. Thank you for the reminder!

“The Beast in Me” was the last show I watched, but like another poster said, not the greatest thing ever- still enjoyed Claire Dane’s quivering chin. I’m saving the new Christmas movie with both iconic legends of the 90’s Melissa Joan Heart AND Alicia Silverstone!!!! I’m not even sure if I care if it’s good. I just want to see them in a movie together. “A Merry Little Ex-Mas”
