- I HATE that I over-think things. Sometime I do it and I’m so worried it will negatively affect my relationships with people. Idk. It’s anxiety that crops up every so often and it just kind of consumes me. I wish I could let it go instantly when it happens. Ugh.
- ‘Rings of Power’ haters are so damn boring and unimaginative. That show is doing so much with so little source material and is such a compelling watch.
- I need a show like Bridgerton but for the gays.
- [1/?] So this weekend I decided to binge 'The Spiderwick Chronicles' TV series that Roku bought from Disney. My sister read the books as a kid and I kinda fell in love with them through her. I got that ping of nostalgia when the series was announced and now that I've seen it I gotta talk about it...
- [2/?] If you're unfamiliar with the books, 'The Spiderwick Chronicles' is a story about the Grace family stumbling into danger when they move into their ancestral home and Jared, the protagonist, stumbles upon a field guide to the world of the Fae written by his great grandfather Arthur Spiderwick.
- [3/?] The books were written by Holly Black and illustrated by Tony DiTerlizzi, the latter of whom's artwork really sets the vibe for the entire thing. The books sold incredibly well; so much so that Nickelodeon made a feature film in 2008 starring Freddie Highmore playing Jared and his twin Simon.

View full thread[16/16] Its talented cast deserved better. Holly Black and Tony DiTerlizzi deserved better. 'The Spiderwick Chronicles' is such an imaginative world and it's a shame that Disney regurgitated it without ever understanding what made it great.
