I think Gaiman (one of my favorite authors) might be almost entirely unadaptable. Coraline is a solid exception. But I thought only the Aziraphale/Crowley parts of Good Omens (my favorite book) worked. American Gods was something I was really pulling for. What a mess.
Sandman? I have very few hopes.
There are some fun actors in the Sandman cast but there have been fun actors in all these casts. And the choice for Dream (an actor who has all of the look and none of the personality) is BAFFLING.
I do enjoy Stardust but it is a very very very loose adaptation. Which may be the ticket.

The reddest flags. vm.tiktok.com/ZMeyLX1bE/
I was long distance dating a guy who said he hadn’t really read any female authors and so I boxed up and shipped him a massive package of books written by women and maybe instead I should have just not dated that person.
Well this thread has now gotten on the wrong side of Twitter and I suspect it's too late for me to add some nuance. But I will say I have enjoyed some works from some of these authors (not you Bukowski) in my time. It's the CLUSTER of them together that disturbs me as a pattern.

There is a bit of a thing right now on TikTok for calling famous men out for dating teen girls and I have never been more ready for anything. vm.tiktok.com/ZMeUqAoGr/

Did anyone else have to come up with nicknames for the copy paste Bridgerton brothers in order to tell them apart?
No no definitely not me and definitely one of them wasn’t “high hair.”
Back in early December when @hijean let me know the Bridgerton kids are named in alphabetical/chronological order I lost my MIND.

I’m seeing WILDLY incorrect “news” reports based on out-of-context quotes from #TCA19 panels. Be wary of people writing up news who weren’t in the room and maybe be wary even of people who were in the room? I dunno. No shade but maybe stick to the outlets who brung you.
Two inaccurate inferences-written-as-news I’ve seen just this morning.
A) His Dark Materials will be ONLY two seasons. That’s not what they said. They said they shot the first two seasons back to back.
B) Robert Redford will act in Watchmen. Listen he MAY! That would be fun....
...but for right now he’s just on a poster and mentioned a lot (as the president in this alt-universe). I wouldn’t be totally surprised if he shows up but that’s not what the panel said.

As #GameOfThrones approaches I hope you’ll check out all my podcasts & VF work yadda yadda yadda. But I also want to shout out a few of my comrades in Thrones who are doing some truly incredible work and I know are feeling some of the same pressure & emotion around this ending.
First of all shout out to the folks at @WesterosHistory (@MeereeneseKnot💚💚) who are your maesters. Second to NONE in their knowledge of the lore.
Shout out to the folks at @WatchersOTWall who are too numerous to mention but I’ll single out @SueTheFury and @LukaNieto. They are your spymasters.
