  1. I am rewatching Phantom Menace, I haven’t seen it in ten years. Let’s see if I still like it as when I was young. Were people extremely disappointed when it came out, or was it gradually disliked by the following years?

    In that case the other person's tweet was talking about Joyce's Ulysses, and it was specifically Joyce that she criticized.

    Ohhhhhh, I’m guessing that’s a newer adaptation? That makes me feel a lot better, as I really want to read the original.

    I can't find this tweet (do you have a link?). If it's worded the way you describe, I think she's wrong about why it's revered by others. There's an enormous number of other "old stories by white people" that have been lost to history entirely, or have far less cultural awareness and impact. If I had to guess why, it'd be because they haven't been as well-regarded.

     

    I believe it was a retweet of another person’s tweet.

    Do you know why- 

     
    How come some big blockbuster films receive a “making of” book, and others don’t? Is it because the studio isn’t confident in the film, or the director is not pleased with the final direct? Or I’m guesssing, not an interest in creating one?

    And would you ever write a Lab Rats Making of book?!!!!!!
  5. Eh I’m hoping for Chaos Walking news at Lionsgate’s presentation. Although the fact they’re seeming to promote Knives Out, presumably a movie with a smaller budget than Chaos Walking, is not a good sign. I just wish it would do well for sci fi’s sake. 

     

    Also, anyway anyone know when the presentations are today?
