I'm still waiting for Ridley Scott to get the ball rolling on the The Silo Series film adaptation!

I in no way said or implied that authors have full ownership of their work once published. I don't believe there is a 'final word." There is the author's feelings and there are fan interpretations which vary by person and over time. How much stock you put into an author's comments after the fact is up to the…
Why are you assuming that I think the author has full ownership over the text? Seriously, I understand that this is upsetting but putting words in people's mouths is sure-fire way to annoy them, rather than engage them; especially since I wasn't being disrespectful.
Thanks, I really appreciate you taking the time to respond with some examples. Yeah, those tweets are pretty damning.
You're assuming the people defending Hinton have seen all these tweets
I'm not on Twitter and have never heard of this situation with her getting into arguments with fans. I appreciate people showing the actual tweets. For those who continue to defend her after being confronted with them are likely in denial. I'm sure…
Would you mind showing examples of the freakout? I haven't heard anything about this and I'm not going to form an opinion until I see what happened. An author saying the characters she wrote aren't gay, to me as a non-gay person, isn't bigoted. An author not liking fan fiction isn't unsual. Sure, the backlash she…
While I'm not agreeing with Warren's Oates here, I think people put waaaay to much stock in what writers say on Twitter about their books after the fact; this happens with JK Rowling constantly. Does the writer stating their opinion on their own work, take away from your interpretation of it?
That's about where I am too. I think the writers did a great job of showing why Jane chose Michael the first time around. It was really sad that his character died (I def cried) but I'm not pissed enough to stop watching. Michael dying was foreshadowed and nearly explicit in the narration for a while. Plus, the show…
Lots of people get heavily invested in certain romantic couplings. I'm used to the various tropes of soaps and novelas so I just go with it, as long as the writing is engaging and characters aren't acting OOC, who ends up with who doesn't really matter.
Ghosted is a half-hour show so pairing it with the Exorcist would leave a gap in programming.
How would Social Services have known he was homeless when his own friends didn't?
Not all victims of sexual abuse show obvious adverse effects right away or at all. One could argue that Archie's mommy issues coupled with him being preyed upon by fake Ms. Grundy influenced how he perceives and handles romantic relationships, which to me was evident throughout the season.
How is that possible? The city I grew up in has approximately 350K and we had 5 public high schools when I attended and there are now 8.
I grew up around NYC and lived there for the past several years, there are diners everywhere across Manhattan and Bk. From personal experience, Borough Park, Bed Stuy, Bushwick and Prospect-Lefferts Garden are all neighbourhoods I know for a fact have diners or 24 hour restaurants.
What major cities have you not been able to find a 24-hour diner in? Seems like a pretty common thing to me.
It was mentioned a few times that FP told Joaquin the contents of the bag he hid were insurance. It's likely that FP knew what hapened with Jason in the bar basement but wasn't directly involved and took the bar's security footage but claimed to have destroyed it. If you knew that the richest, most powerful guy in…
I think genetic diversity increases a lot once you get to 5th or 6th cousins.
It's been a running joke throughout the season that the employees hadn't bothered to learn the protocol for a tornado emergency at the store. The review even mentions this.
It's probably meant to be tongue-in-cheek and not taken literally…
As far as I know, they simply provide the ingredients in the amounts needed to complete the recipe, but the customer still has to prepare everything themselves, like cutting, mixing, etc.
