I'm pretty sure Tomcats showed that librarians may break skin as well.

At that point I'd say it would be easier to start a book club, and instead of following some dooha's list from up-on-high, the members just share their favorites.
That's the reason most books can't be adapted exactly as written. Unless the writing is so horribly stilted (X went to Y, X said Z to α, X had β happen to him because of α...) that you wouldn't want to read it in the first place, you'll need a large amount of narration and/or characters speaking their thoughts out loud, which doesn't work most of the time and gets worse if they're doing it solely for the purpose of the viewer getting into their headspace.
I've had next to no luck with the dating apps. I think the longest relationship I got out of them was 2 months, and the majority of conversations ended before ever meeting. The dating app world doesn't seem to accommodate my kind of person, where I want to get to know a person before we bed each other. It seemed like every match wanted to have a single date that ended in sex. Fuck that.
Ya know, I'm actually okay with that. Up to endgame it wasn't really all that much. You had Ironman x3, GoG x2, Strange x1, Thor x3, Spiderman x1 (x2 if you want to watch the one right after endgame), Captain America x3, Avengers x3, Ant-Man x2, and Black Panther, all of which set you up for endgame. Thats... a grand total of 20 movies, plus the spiderman right after endgame.
Is that a lot? Sure, 40-50 hours. But let one company have a cool, big, tied together place in movies. I liked my invincible comic read. One book, straight through from beginning to end. I also liked when I read through the Marvel Ultimate comics, with about four or five of the serials that I was reading interweaving. I can't think of any other setting that was tied together like that in movies. The closest you'd get would be the television types, with a few hundred episodes.
I'll agree that the tv show styles were too much. I personally couldn't even watch the first trial of those, the agents of shield, right? That first episode was just such terrible writing. I definitely don't want to take that 40-50 hours (over 11 years, too, so that helps) and multiply by exponential scales.
Wow, I never realized Tie Fighter was only 13 mB. Those tattoos alone would probably be images larger than 13 mB these days. I can't imagine how large it would be now.
I still have a large folder of black boxes. One day they'll be worth something!
I think the link is not working. I got redirected to the most current page. I'm going to try to fix it.
I thought it was less about racial stereotypes, and more about this big recent push across multiple fields to not have people's names attached to things. Right now (or recently) it's about oviducts v Fallopian tubes or the bulbourethral gland v Cowperis gland in biology, which I'm familiar with. I think there was a post and comment thread about birds specifically in the last few days on Lemmy; same thing with people's names being removed.
Because I'm easy come, I don't go, anywhere the wind blows, doesn't really matter to meeee, planesetme freeee.
I could see the new enjoyers of Pern flat out giving it up when the twist happened. Plus, I wouldn't trust the show's makers to not trash the politics of the holds.

Fantasy -> sci-fi is a pretty big change for a tv audience, I think.
