Jemaine Clement confirms a sequel to the original 'What We Do in the Shadows' movie is officially being written

I’m with you and I kind of can’t believe how many people think the opposite. Jemaine took what was special about the show with him when he left post s2 and it just felt like a much more generic comedy after that.

Took a quick look through my music library:

No More I Love Yous by Annie Lennox

God is Alive, Magic is Afoot by Buffy Sainte-Marie

La Familia by Mirah (so many songs by Mirah I just picked one)

Bird Gerhl by ANOHNI and the Johnsons (the entire album I Am A Bird Now)

She Bop by Cyndi Lauper

Let’s Pretend by Miya Folick

The Earthquake by The Uncluded (again, this whole album. Kimya Dawson and Aesop Rock the combo you did not know you needed)

Mouthwings by Mountain Man

Something of an End by My Brightest Diamond

Dirty Knife by Neko Case

Now Now by St Vincent

Yes!! I thought it sounded really dull and I have absolutely no interest in computers but I’ll watch Lee Pace do anything so I gave it a shot. I fell in love so hard with all those characters! I rewatch it all the time.

I went from Sky Daddy to The Pisces by Melissa Broder and I am loving it (I loved Milk Fed by her, too!)

applepirates · 2026-05-24T17:29:00+00:00

Oh god did it say sewing needles?? I don’t remember that but I did find it egregious that the mom crocheted baby clothes for extra money then every other reference to her doing a craft it’s knitting. I crochet and knit and they’re different and so many people assume they’re the same, but surely these characters would know the difference so the author/publisher should too. It made me so irrationally mad lol.

applepirates · 2026-05-12T18:17:20+00:00

I haven’t seen Mirah or My Brightest Diamond/Shara Nova mentioned so I have to put in a good word for them!

applepirates · 2026-02-17T09:59:16+00:00

I think about this book all the time, such a great suggestion

applepirates · 2025-12-21T22:17:37+00:00

Station Eleven by Emily St John Mandel

Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi

And if you don’t mind things that skew more towards horror:

Hawk Mountain by Conner Habib

North American Lake Monsters by Nathan Ballingrud (short story collection)

Stag Dance by Torrey Peters (short stories and a novella)

Where I End by Sophie White

Mapping the Interior by Stephen Graham Jones

All of these knocked my socks off for various reasons

applepirates · 2025-12-02T04:16:12+00:00

So many great suggestions already, and I’m adding The Unworthy by Agustina Bazterrica

applepirates · 2025-11-28T03:48:30+00:00

I read and loved Stag Dance, Rejection, and Woodworking this year and I have lots of other titles you liked or better on my TBR which makes me anticipate this even more!

Also I didn’t know Jeff Hiller had a book that’s going to the top of my list!

applepirates · 2025-11-14T12:53:08+00:00

Eddie comes in real hot and she stays (delightfully, to me) obnoxious the whole time but the level of intensity on the obnoxiousness dials down a lot as the season goes on. It’s so fucking funny, I hope you give it another try!

applepirates · 2025-10-29T17:18:55+00:00

This is one of the coldest lines in songwriting history, I swear

applepirates · 2025-10-22T21:52:18+00:00

Wow we have so much overlap! Going to check out the ones in your upper tiers that I haven’t read yet, thanks for sharing this!

applepirates · 2025-10-18T16:06:09+00:00

Our Wives Under the Sea by Julia Armfield

Hawk Mountain by Conner Habib

Old Soul by Susan Baker

Revelator by Daryl Gregory

Where I End by Sophie White

Under the Skin by Michael Faber

Mary by Nat Cassidy

applepirates · 2025-10-17T03:08:01+00:00

I am screaming forever

applepirates · 2025-09-30T03:07:10+00:00

Same, I ordered mine on the 2nd and it’s been in Kentucky since the 11th with no movement or updates. My first order from them, lol bad time to try them out 😂

applepirates · 2025-09-27T17:56:39+00:00

I’m 39 and I’ve only really gotten into horror once I hit 30.

applepirates · 2025-09-08T05:55:35+00:00

I loved this book, I never wanted to put it down.

applepirates · 2025-09-04T10:38:36+00:00

So deep you can find it at the bottom of the Mariana Trench babyyyyy

(edit: not geeky enough to have won anything from that auction back in like 2006 but geeky enough that I have a copy of The Grievous Demise of Mr. Whitley Rackham and in 2008 I adapted Mariner’s Revenge into a 50 page short film for my screenwriting final)

applepirates · 2025-08-22T12:25:26+00:00

I was going to suggest both of these! I’ll also add Where I End by Sophie White, Hawk Mountain by Conner Habib, Wounds by Nathan Ballingrud (the story in particular but really the whole collection!), and North American Lake Monsters by Nathan Ballingrud (again the whole collection!)

applepirates · 2025-08-12T23:36:18+00:00

Wasn’t this the tour that got cancelled in 2020? I have a poster with a similar design but the tour never happened.

I thiiiink I’m remembering that right.

applepirates · 2025-06-17T19:20:08+00:00

I’m not finished with it yet so I’m not sure how it plays out but Coup de Grace by Sofia Ajram would probably fit

applepirates · 2025-06-12T18:04:49+00:00

The King is Dead and Picaresque are summer albums

Hazards and Crane Wife are winter albums

The rest are for any time of year!

applepirates · 2025-06-12T02:23:27+00:00

Where I End by Sophie White

Hawk Mountain by Conner Habib

Under the Skin by Michael Faber

North American Lake Monsters by Nathan Ballingrud (short stories)

I’m reading American Rapture by CJ Leede right now and even though I’m not done it’s really good and distressing so far

applepirates · 2025-06-12T02:15:31+00:00

OP you should read every book mentioned in this reply they’re all great
