kip@piefed.zipto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the worst change made in a movie adaptation of a book?English2·1 month agoA purply pinky pallette is often used for cosmic horror. I don’t know if this is because of magenta ‘not existing’ or if it’s just a coincidence but it’s a good choice anyway
kip@piefed.zipto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the worst change made in a movie adaptation of a book?English5·1 month agoThis is a good take although I still prefer the sinister ending of the film over the redemptive one in the book.

Blurb:
At last, the definitive book about perhaps the best cabin-crew dramedy ever filmed: View from the Top, starring Gwyneth Paltrow
His other one The Grip of Film is good too, recommend the audio versions of both

kip@piefed.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Would it be weird to ask my brother if I could tag along when he goes out with his friends?English21·2 months agoit’s not weird but it’s also not weird if he isn’t into it. amongst my own friend group there’s some with siblings or cousins who come along to the pub etc but there’s also others who keep their friends compartmentalised, who keep in touch with school friends, work friends, family members, whatever groups entirely seperately
so ask, you have nothing to lose, but don’t take it personally if he doesn’t like the idea
