[@jimberjamber8540]

Richard Roxburgh will forever be my favorite Dracula. I just love how goofy and over the top his performance is. He understood the assignment 100%. It's a damn shame that we never got a Rick O'Connell/Van Helsing team-up since the time difference was only about 40 years and Van Helsing is apparently immortal anyways. Imagine Indiana Jones in there too?

[@cjc872]

Dracula was given form by Bela Lugosi, so many depictions are based on him.

[@MegaSpideyman]

Yes, he's the archetypal version. Just class.

[@kevinoneil5120]

Lifelong Godzilla fan here, and I can say that most Godzilla movies are silly fun shlock and not meant to be taken seriously. But that first 1954 film had always shown the blueprint that the premise can be taken seriously if done correctly.

[@georgejones3526]

Unfortunately, most of the world was exposed to the heavily edited 1956 “Godzilla, King of the Monsters!” with Raymond Burr shoehorned into it.

[@kevinoneil5120]

@georgejones3526 I'm gonna go to bat for that version, so hear me out. Mid 50's, barely a decade removed from WW2, and Japan/US relations weren't in a great place. Along comes this movie, "Gojira," that's all the rage in Japan. It could have easily been dubbed over entirely in a mocking fashion as many foreign films were (and still are to this day). Instead, Jewell Enterprises (the company behind the edit) saw how good of a movie it was and took a different approach. Rather than just dub over everything and make it look silly, they added Burr's character as a means to convey what was happening to American audiences. And through clever camera angles, Burr's narration, and the addition of the translator that accompanies Burr, they were actually able to leave much of the original Japanese dialogue intact, dubbing over only when it was absolutely necessary. All while taking the premise of the movie just as seriously as the original Toho version, and Burr himself treated the role as serious as any other. So while one could argue that it's a lesser version of the original, by no means is it a *bad* dub, and I still encourage people to watch both. The Americanized version takes that same event and tells it through the eyes of a foreign reporter who just happened to be there when all this horror was happening. Now Godzilla *1984*... THAT was a bad edit 😆

All the talk about Barbie snub at the Oscars is funny. People act like any movie or performance has never been "snubbed" before. Difference is, now the cause of bias is gender and/or race, not the fact that the Academy always prefers either bait-movies or exercises of quasi-art or self indulgence

[@joelreis5366]

The first time i tried to read Dune, i couldnt get past 50 pages on the first book. Probably was on the wrong mindset for it. A few years later i gave it another go and went through all the books relatively fast. The 4th book is by far the best, and the main character of the entire story is not who you think in the first couple of books. Tried reading some of the books written by Frank Herbert's son, and noped out instantly. Its not the same lvl of writing. I might give it a shot eventually just for the sake of some of the lore, like the Butlerian Jihad.

[@troymash8109]

It's difficult getting through the son's books, but give it another shot. You hit on it, it's so worth it for the lore. Some of it adds to a second or third reading of Frank's books.

[@IstariAzul777]

The 4th dune is my favorite too. I’ve always hoped to see it adapted some day as Leto II is way more fun then Paul imo tho not really sure momoa was right casting if they actually ever did adapt latter books.. I too tried the books of the son - garbage

[@SumDumGy]

Dune will always be my favorite, and one of my favorite novels. It’s the only one of the series I’ve read more than once. The original “House” trilogy by Brian Herbert I found to be an enjoyable read. While nowhere near the quality of writing of Herbert proper, a lot is done for the lore and flushing out characters we really only barely got to know.

Im surprised you didn't like Doctor Sleep. Maybe the alcoholism allegory hit a little too close to home, but I thought it was much more faithful to the source material than Kubricks shining. Ending could've been better but a solid film regardless. I think you should give it a rewatch as a stabdalone and not as a sequel to the shining.

Paul walker in 8 below is great and great film. Sad but great.

Back when Copalas Dracula was coming out I bought the book by Bram Stoker cause I wanted to read it before watching the film. Three moths later and I still hadn't finished it. The book was that badly written. In comparison at the same time, picked up Dune and read it in three days. IT IS NOT A HARD BOOK TO READ. Try it and you will love it.

Once again Drinker gets recommended Frieren. I really hope he gives the show a try when he is done with Attack on Titan! And the recommendation of the best SciFi-Story ever "Legend of Galactic Heroes" is also a good one, but that would be quite a journey for him as it isn't dubbed and there is a viewing order with all the films and prequels in addition to the 110 episodes. Talking about the original 80s adaptation, not "Die Neue These"! I doubt Drinker would be up for that adventure. Long live Reinhardt!
