Above all, Verne’s stories, to me, capture a sense of vast potential.
Good Omens Season 2 Reflections
Note the word "reflections" - this is not a review for the second season of the television version of Good Omens, but rather my thoughts after watching it. In other words, beware spoilers if you've not yet watched it.
Good Omens Review
A few years ago, Amazon Prime released a television adaptation, one of those mini-series, of the Neil Gaiman-Terry Pratchett collaboration Good Omens, and it was amongst the best and most faithfully adapted pieces I’ve ever seen.
Star Trek: Picard Review
I know, I know. I only do one review a week, and Tuesdays are reserved for other thoughts and writings and musings, so that you don't get bored of reading my reviews. Reviews are supposed to come out on Thursdays. Well, don't worry: you'll have your book review on Thursday. I think I deserve a pass, though, since this isn't a book review. Now, I don't review a lot of shows or movies, mostly because I don't watch a lot of shows and movies, but also because this is supposed to be a writing website, not a video production website, and therefore book reviews seem more appropriate. Shows and movies are still story-telling, though, and exceptions can be made.
Lost in Translation
No, I'm not above using cliche titles, when they serve me. Because I'm so very fond of stirring up controversy, I'm going to talk about something that divides more people than religion, politics, or the Great Pumpkin: movie/book adaptations. Fair warning: we're going to talk about some big name franchises, including Harry Potter, Star Wars, The Lord of the Rings, Star Trek, Jurassic Park, and others, so if you don't want to risk potential spoilers from either the book or movie versions of any of these, you might not want to read this post. Otherwise, let's mire ourselves in controversy.
