  • I don’t hate everything, but I am sick and tired of shitty adaptations of books/games/whatever that I love. I have been burned so many times by seeing something and being cautiously optimistic because of good trailers… and then the final product has none of the magic or characteristics of what I loved about the originals. Watching a favorite IP get gutted by crappy writers over and over again is really frustrating. I’ve been burned so many times, it’s hard not to be cynical, angry, and jaded.

    I’ve heard HBO’s “The Last of Us” is awesome, and it’s definitely on my watch list. I never watched the “One Piece” anime or read the manga, but I heard that was surprisingly good, too. I know there are some jewels out there, but they seem to be the exception.


  • That’s always where these show are just absolute shit. It’s so easy (relatively speaking) to nail the visuals. But writing an interesting, compelling, relatable, semi-relstable story? Fuck no! Write a stupid story with moronic characters and throw in a bunch of references to the video games for the nerds!

    The Witcher. Wheel Of Time. The Rings Of Power. Cowboy Bebop. Avatar: The Last Airbender. Death Note. Fucking HALO.

    All. Shit.
