Cape Fear, Lost In Adaptation ~ Dominic Noble 

221b not to mention a musical sequence at the end to buy time!

*THWACK* "Eeurhurhurhurhurhurhurrrr..." *THWACK* "Eeurhurhurhurhurhurhurrrr..." *THWACK* "Eeurhurhurhurhurhurhurrrr..." *THWACK* "Eeurhurhurhurhurhurhurrrr..." *THWACK* "Eeurhurhurhurhurhurhurrrr..." *THWACK* "Eeurhurhurhurhurhurhurrrr..." *THWACK* "Eeurhurhurhurhurhurhurrrr..." *THWACK* "Eeurhurhurhurhurhurhurrrr..."

Ok, that sounds amazing.

Nor does it have the movie theater scene, where our killer gets annoyed and just leaves.

Damn, looks like I was beaten to the joke

Faydreams Mystic sad but true

That's because earlier in his career he was famous for having a large chest and freakishly slim waist, something that was written about in magazine articles.

John wick joined the conversation

@@Lumos89 I mean, that is pretty much the major reason the film makers went that route - it's one of those "unforgivables" in fiction, particularly cinema or television. Once you see some asshole do that, purposefully, and really showcase what the dog went through (and particularly in JW's case with how John woke up after the whole thing was over), the audience basically gives carte blanche to the person going after, and trying to take down the asshole. Almost any action becomes justified to the viewer/reader when the villain has done that.

“Oh. Well then, go ahead.”

That would be the best disney movie ever

😂😂😂 I _need_ to see this! I'll settle for something like it, a la Robot Chicken or whatever, but oh man LMAO!

Alternatively muppet John Wick, but then the question is which would be the sole human character in the film

Thank you@@thrallgames ! I clicked and was not disappointed

"Nobody who speaks German could be evil..."

"Use a pen, Sideshow Bob."🤨

Interesting to see how far back this kind of thing was happening in adaptations.

@@Dominic-Noble Heck take a look at the Bela Lugosi version of Dracula.

I was thinking that was the reason Robert Mitchum got so much more screen time than the villain of the book. "We're paying to have Robert Mitchum in this movie! We're god damn gonna use him!"

He was a producer of the film. So not surprising.

......should I feel good about this? Cuz that sounds kinda awesome o.o’

Shame if this is still happening despite laws meant to prevent that; en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_shield_law#United_States

@@whyjay9959 Oh, it is. A teenage girl's rapist walked free a few months ago off the "evidence" that she was wearing lacy underwear at the time so clearly "wanted it." Rape shield laws may as well be written on a napkin and thrown into a lake for all the good they do. Protagonist was absolutely right about that.

Having neither read or watched either version, that sounds like it goes against the original point the author was going for? If he wanted to show that even the staunchest champion of civilisation and the law will abandon his moral compass when forced into a corner, then it seems like allowing said champion of the law to have already proven himself more than willing to subvert the letter of the law (even if arguably to serve the spirit of it) would completely invalidate that message. Not that I think it was a bad thing for Bowden to do, by any means (and if the filmmakers presented it in such a way as to shine a light on this very real and still very pervasive problem - rather than a simple plot device - then I commend them for that), but it does muddy the water when it comes to the themes of the story.

@@ViveMeorLeti While I honestly doubt that it was intentional, the remake does have some interesting commentary on the differing ways the law can be used with Bowden (who tries and sometimes fails to use the law as a shield to protect himself and others) and Cady (who successfully uses the law as a sword to attack his enemies with).

Even still, Dom's "normalization" take is flatout head desk worthy.

@@bar-1studios yep did it so hard my head is now in the Andromeda galaxy

João Felipe B. Lopes 😏 yup

João Felipe B. Lopes happens to me a lot

"Settle down, John Wick!"

@@markchapman6800 I would have to side with the kid

Cady

yeah, he completely missed the subtle menace behind Mitchem's performance. Im guessing it went over his head. Mitchem is absolutely terrifying.

I agree. And for the same reason, I hated the 1991 remake because DeNiro was too OTT and campy in his portrayal, covered in tattoos and drawling out his lines with that atrocious Southern accent.

The law actually changes every couple of days and weeks. I went to law school and it changes so often that our textbooks become outdated during each semester.

Oh, yeah. That episode was really funny. One of my favorites.

Stalking laws make a remake virtually impossible.

I agree, though I thought it was weird that they changed Bowden’s profession from prosecutor to defense lawyer since prosecutor’s are much more used to having the law “on their side”

@@katie3603 I think that change was so they could slip in the part about Bowden burrying evidence against his client, showing that Sam's not as clean and righteous as he tries to appear

Is that a One Stormy Night avatar I see there?

F A B R I C A T E D I E M P V N C :)

It's the Comics code that didn't allow the hero to kill.

Hats keep the sun off your hair or keep your head warm depending on the fabric and design, so I can easily defend wearing hats, but not so much suits. Although a suit that is not polyester but wool or linen is actually fine in hot weather. My mother got married in a heat wave in a woolen suit. :)

Yes, much better when people wear tasteless infantile clothing.

@@anonb4632 If it's 90 degrees, yea. I think it is.

The 40s were just kinda stylish like that.

I'll have to check out the cartoon. The books could get kinda brutal so I'm curious how they would translate that into a children's tv show.

Yessss!

Those books were so good. I still have most of them. Might be missing a few. The author might not even be alive now. He did have a stroke or something 10-15 years ago.

Did anyone else read Redwall books while the rest of the class would read books a tenth the size?

MastemaJack I think Brian Jaques died around 2002.

Dogs of War would be another good one. Though it would most likely be a in name only adaptation

He should do goodfellas which is based on wise guys

and Smiley's People

LeCarre would be great. I'd also like to see some Ludlum, like the Osterman Weekend.

Same, I saw the movie when I was younger but really had a hard time understanding the plot points involving people outside the main character and his wife.

I LOVE that episode!

-totally should have been The Simpsons episode picked for lost in adaptation' 😂 Or at least on the seen it read it survey 😂😂😂😂

Read the book: 0 Saw the film: 2Saw the remake: 5 Saw the Simpsons episode: 50

Exactly Elijah 👌

GriffinPilgrim but, man, it was a good episode!

They were parodying the 1991 version more than the 1962 version, but yeah.

Dude, Sideshow Bob was played by Celci Grammar.

He has done this movie. It only available on pateron.

@@brendafrancy600 Ohh I see... Thanks for the info.

@@efoxkitsune9493 Unfortunately, it couldn't be kept publicly available, because Japanese copyright laws are far stricter than in most other nations. Essentially, fair use exemption isn't a thing there, so using clips from popular Anime is even more of a takedown risk than most other uses of copyrighted content, even if used in the right context to be considered fair use.

@@moviemaestro800 Wow, I didn't know that. Weird, considering just how many anime clips and analysis videos are here on youtube... Well, it's a shame..

@@efoxkitsune9493 Agreed! I love Diana Wynne Jones. The Howl Trilogy is available here on RU-vid in audiobook form.

psycologo121 I say he was more interested in Bart. So yikes either way.
