I was watching a woman interview pro-life marchers, and one of them was holding a sign that said “four of my siblings were aborted. Choose life.”

This marcher said she was raised in a family of pro-abortionists, and the siblings before and after her were aborted because the mother “wasn’t ready” at first, and after she gave birth to the third baby, the mother just “didn’t feel like going through another pregnancy.”

That alone hit me so hard. But the part that hit the hardest was when the pro-lifer said “the reason why I was had is…because I was the more conveniently timed one.”

Why do we have to boil down the lives of children to one’s “convenience”? Why? This poor girl has 4 siblings who have no graves, no dates, nowhere to mourn or place flowers, all because her mother chose to think of herself before her children.

It’s so sad. It’s so so sad.

First Persuasion. Then Wuthering Heights. Now Pride and Prejudice. I want to smash something against the wall. I don't know why Hollywood is doing this. I can't even be happy about new adaptations anymore, because I immediately think they're going to ruin it. It's so heartbreaking to watch these wonderful novels be ruined by people who don't understand and don't respect the material they're adapting!

I don't know why either. I mean, they adapt classic literature because it's already got name recognition and no licensing fees, but why you wouldn't do it well, that I cannot comprehend. However, I think you are being too cynical after one bad adaptation.

Emma 2020 was great! Yes it changed and modernized some things, but it kept in the spirit of the novel. The characters were preserved (except John and Isabella Knightley, but they are minor). Fire Island (2022) wasn't for me, but it was good (best Wickham in my humble opinion). Then Persuasion 2022 was a dumpster fire, but then Hallmark's Sense & Sensibility (2024) was surprisingly good.

Maybe these new adaptations will pleasantly surprise us. Maybe. Perhaps. Let's live in hope.

i was expecting bruce to take absolutely zero accountability for anything he did as zur so i'm choosing to find the silver lining in having him refer to the stupid fear chip thing as "what i did to you" and the way he's taking responsibility for the wrong he did to jason and not worm out and actually try to own it and potentially make amends (even tho i know what they're gearing up for is to have jason absolve him* without any real work involved on bruce's part)

*which isn't necessarily out of character for jason, he's a shockingly and verifiably incredibly forgiving person, considering that he's never publicly disparaged sheila for literally murdering him and still holds affection for willis and catherine in spite of their mistakes to the point where he was deeply upset about willis being killed and out loud said he forgave bruce for not saving him (not that he never blamed him, specifically that he forgave him, which implies both bruce's culpability and jason's own internal work to give him absolution which i wish more people remembered) and in general still has a relationship with half the fuckers in his family in spite of shit they've pulled. i just wish it was actually treated as a character trait, that jason is forgiving and goodhearted to the point where he lets things slide that he shouldn't so long as it only concerns himself and not others (cuz he's fundamentally selfless yes i will die on this hill) and not the writers never acknowledging that he's the fucking victim and that people deserve to be taken to task for stuff they do and that not everything bad that happens to him is his own fucking fault i hate dc.

day 71 of asking why reddit has suddenly become convinced that the 'finn and mat's rhuidean trip are a waste of time and easily cut, and that season 3 will obviously feature him splitting off from the friends he just reunited with in order to spend the entire season dicking around with thom and getting into shenanigans, as that is much more important to his overall character arc than his 2-book waste arc

like there have been SO MANY posts like this lately and all of them are filled with comments of universal agreement! am i having a stroke? what the hell is going on???? i'll admit mat doesn't have a huge amount of specific stuff to do in the waste aside from rhuidean, but rhuidean is crucial to his character and s2 had Mat-Finn Connection Foreshadowing out the wazoo, plus the waste plotline is MUCH more fertile ground for creating additional Specific Mat Stuff and enhancing his character development & relationships with other main characters than his TDR plotline of dicking around with thom is.

Have you done a ranking or a review on the different Darcy portrayals in the adaptations?

If I must. I prefer Book!Darcy above all others and I don't think he's ever been properly portrayed. I'm also not the best person to answer this, most of the Pride & Prejudice adaptations I've only watched once. But here we go, best first:

#1. Lewis Fiander, BBC 1967 miniseries. He was snobby, he made jokes with Caroline, he was different in different situations. He's my favourite Darcy hands down and I think the best representation of this complex character.

#2. David Rintoul, BBC 1980 miniseries. They really played up the "stiff" but I still like him better than the others. He's not broody at least.

#3. Laurence Olivier, 1940 film. He's way too charming to be Darcy, he has charmed me...

#4. Martin Henderson, Bride & Prejudice film. He is snobby, he is rich, he takes care of his baby sister. I don't like his voice for some reason but he's a fairly good Darcy.

And then the rest:

Broody McBroodface, ShyBoiTM, Raspy Voice, and Idiot

(Aka: Colin Firth BBC 1995 miniseries, Matthew Macfadyen 2005 film, Sam Riley P&P&Z film, Elliot Cowan Lost in Austen miniseries)

To be honest, my dislike of 1995 and 2005's Darcys have less to do with the portrayals themselves than the way they've overridden the character in the novel and become faux canon. Also, I'm immune to Colin Firth, don't find him attractive at all, even in a wet shirt.

Increasingly tempted to make some sort of Komaeda autism meta since I keep discussing his diagnoses with people and like the autistic Komaeda HC (comorbid with, not instead of FTD). I relate a lot to the symptoms he has that overlap with my own nonsense, but I'm looking through the ICD-11 criteria right now and I think he actually doesn't meet a bunch of them. It'd be fun to do a point-by-point analysis at some point.
