Japancakes: I refused to give the brothers Warner my further attention or cash after paying to be immensely disappointed by the first three films in theatres.

My mind would not allow me to NOT notice what was not moved from the books into to the films. Or to notice that characters were given dialogue that didn't belong to them or that didn't exist at all and events were compressed for time (things that I'm aware MUST happen during any book-to-screen transition). I literally just sat there mentally screaming "That didn't happen that way!" And "That scene should have been segued into that scene, not that one!"

I couldn't see the movies as movies and not as perceived-by-me-to-be failures of adaptation of imperfect-but-genuinely-adored text into moving image.

It would be interesting to see what Miyazaki could do with the series (yeah, yeah! It's unlikely. Dreams, ya know?)


It's going to be okay. Have some cake.

Don't eat it because the cake lies.
(haven't eaten it in years. In earnest).

Gave your point a cursory peripheral glance as I waddled by it.
