I buy meal kits from HelloFresh. I buy three meals a week, each are two servings. I cook every second day and have leftovers for the next day. One day a week, I either eat fast food or cook something easy like canned food
Depends on what the goal is. If Trump's goal is to destroy his country and ruin as many things as he can for as many people as he can before he dies, he is very successful
You might be thinking of a quote from The Handmaid's Tale book about how if you put a frog in water and just turn the temperature up slowly, it won't notice it's boiling.
I fear that by the time America is willing to properly fight back, it'll be too late
The cost of living is too high. Having children is really expensive and you have to worry about whether they'll make it as adults or whether things will be even worse then
Wanna hear something else infuriating? Some judges are now ruling that it's okay for foster parents to mistreat LGBT kids because of "religious freedom". Apparently it's discrimination to not allow anti-LGBT discrimination
People complain about original movies too, what's your point? People are hypocrites. They ask why nothing original is being made and them Disney announced Hexed and it immediately got backlash. People are accusing it of being a ripoff of Owl House but there's no good evidence of that. People complain no matter what.
Maybe I've misunderstood and people usually aren't just complaining about franchise films but also about adaptations. To which I'm even MORE annoyed with their complaint about no original movies being made. The original Mean Girls was an adaptation. So that movie shouldn't have been made? Why shouldn't Hollywood look to books for material? Why this arbitrary demand that the movie can't be based on anything? All stories are derivative. The original Star Wars was original, not a remake or adaptation, but it was inspired by Flash Gordon. It's basically impossible to make a story with no connection to any preexisting story
Different categories apply depending on the context. Adaptations are a different category than remakes or sequels and in this context make sense to classify as original. It's not based on any preexisting movie
That person didn't list it as anything. Pay attention to who you're replying to. For the purpose of the discussion about whether Hollywood is making any original movies, people mean as opposed to remakes and sequels
But for the purposes of these conversations, people are complaining about sequels and remakes being too prominent. I don't see why an adaptation of a book that has never been adapted into film before should be part of that complaint
Okay it was an adaptation, but it wasn't a remake or a sequel. I understand the definition of original to be not remake or sequel. If adaptations don't count, that significantly shrinks the number of original movies that have ever been made. Why is it not enough the movie isn't part of an established film franchise, it also must not be an adaptation? The authour of the novel had an original idea and it was made into a film. The film is contributing to new, non-franchise, films being made popular. No, ideas must go straight to being film or they don't count?
