From Hell - Caravan of Garbage

[@garrettbuell3172]

There is strong evidence to suggest that Jack the Ripper was actually a farmer that came into the city to sell his goods. It was said he always got depressed when he came into the gloomy London city so the locals gave him the nickname “Blue” and when he showed up, the city folk would say “Here comes Blue’s Harvest”. Which coincidentally is very similar to Blue Harvest, the working title of the original Star Wars.

[@johnlee7164]

I thought that's what the London newspapers called Jack the Ripper at first when his spree started. Then the readers were confused if it was a serial killer or a movie script, so they changed his moniker from Blue Harvest to Jack the Ripper. No more strongly worded letters to the editor.

Hi, old Northamptonian here, who grew up with Alan Moore as a local weirdo (in the best possible sense). What's real sad is that about all this is how much Moore LOVES movies and TV. I used to see him back when I was a teen working in HMV buying stacks of DVDs. Always great and enthusiastic to talk about the new stuff he was into (man, he LOVED Peep Show at the time). Before this movie came out he was pumped for it - mate of mine at the time said he saw him in Blockbuster renting out all the Depp movies he could. It such a shame that this, and subsequent adaptations of his work have been shit - just become another thing for him to be annoyed about.

From Hell may just be Moore’s best work, or at least it’s a close second to Watchmen. I recommend scrolling to the back and looking at the authors notes as you read. It’s such a dense text, and despite the ultimate basis of the story being fictional, very well sourced. The way Moore sets up this decade as being the turning point for the modern world is unbelievably chilling.

[@cupguin]

For me Marvelman doesn't get enough love so From Hell has to get pushed down slightly but as far as adaptations of Alan Moore's works that have left me angry it's definitely top two.

[@cupguin]

@@AdmiralBobbery123 Alan Moore's run on Marvelman is entirely self contained...mostly. All you really need to know is the original UK comic series started when Fawcett stopped printing Captain Marvel and the UK publisher needed a replacement. The end result was a 1950s comic aimed at kids who hopefully wouldn't notice the difference between a hero that transformed after saying Kimota instead of Shazam. Then Eclipse let Alan Moore get his hands on the characters at the start of the Thatcher era and let him do what he wanted. There's a run by Gaiman but as Moore said, he was going to fix everything. Also great but a radically different run that branches away from where Moore leaves things rather than a direct sequel. It's also easily the most convoluted publishing drama in comics history that starts with Captain Marvel and ends with Marvel republishing Marvelman as Miracleman. So it's not complicated to follow the story but it was hard to find for years. I can't say I'm upset that it wasn't turned into a bad movie but I am annoyed the drama pushed one of the best comic series ever written into obscurity.

I think I may be able to shine some light on the Jack the Ripper case. My great-great-great-great-grandfather was alive at the time. And my family has several of his possession still in storage. Among the items is an old thick coat which would have been out of fashion even at the time. The coat combined with a hat and cane would have made him look like an older and harmless man. He would have been able to pass through society without attention. But, more interesting is a diary that was found inside the pocket of the coat. My family is hesitant to discuss this for obvious reasons. But, the diary is full of semi-coherent ramblings about different "societal ills". Chief amongst them was the belief that some women were evil spirits sent to cause disharmony. This seems to be because his mother left after his father was found to have hired a sex worker. This seems to have left a deep scar on him. But, most troubling is a small note in the margins of the red-stained pages. The note says, "I am the one they call Jack the Ripper though I have never been fond of that name. For the sake of the family's reputation, I would like the contents of this diary to remain secret for a century and a half. Until it can be shared on an as-of-yet uninvented platform that can allow two Australian chaps to discuss popular media."

The problem with adaptations to film, is there is always studio people who think they know better about what should be filmed as opposed to what made the source material successful. Sometimes you have to change some things, but so many movies suffer from extreme changes to the material.

[@lutherheggs451]

Nah. The problem with adaptations are the people who have a hard time grasping that its an adaptation. Some things are not budget friendly to film, some things are not at all feasible to actually film, some things in a novel or drawn in a picture book look or sound good as they are described or drawn, but would absolutely look awful on a real human being in real life i.e. a guy wearing a green onesie and a giant yellow star on his head being called Electro. The majority of "major changes" in adaptations aren't done because studio people FACTUALLY know better than pie in the sky, unlimited budget screw reality.
