😭😭😭😭😭😭 we were so excited in the beginning of this thread twin

@Sir_Swagalot a MESS

From Luca to Ryan Murphy… good lord

this is the worst day of my life

biggest fumble ever jfc

we went from style to straight pastiche

David Fincher/Christian Bale for Steve Jobs

nothing else comes close

Boyle/Fassy did a great job though

i think i’ma give this chance. i don’t have high hopes, but ryan murphy excels at gay, campy, glitzy but dark storylines (like the book, American Crime Story: Versace, etc)

hoping and praying that Luca guadagnino gets to adapt The Secret History one day. When that gets adapted, it will be BIG.

Ryan Murphy? Who did we piss off?

Bro I gotta read that. Legendary book

it's so f***ing good bro

lemme read this too i trust y’all’s recs

It's long as hell. Like, you really gotta set a substantial amount of time for it. That's why I haven't tackled it yet

unfortunately twin i LOVE a good audiobook so this is good for me

it’s so sad what happened to this lol

anything within less than zero realm of BEE deserves so badly to have a great adaptation and i truly think luca would’ve provided that rather than the campy nature of ryan murphy stuff which doesn’t really match this vibe at all

i guess this is more motivation to finally finish the shards tho

@op

hmm

it’s giving 80’s riverdale

which i don’t necessarily mind but once again is still a little tonally different from the source material

i don’t feel like it looks that bad. like i said above Ryan Murphy excels in this specific subgenre of glitzy glamorous murderous s***. i’m gonna re-read the book tho lol.

@SOLARIS @Sir_Swagalot @Beach_kneega

It's giving Ryan Murphy production of course

Doesn't look bad tho. Please be good.

you ever seen ACS Versace? I think it was you that i quoted and I said in another Ryan Murphy thread that every 10 projects he has one where he reminds us what he’s capable of and with the source material he’s working with being great I hope this is it lol

Fingers crossed papi
