bran in the crypts bran passing the wall from below, bran in the caves and tunnels beneath the weirwood hill, arya getting lost under the red keep, arya in the infinite cellars and subcellars beneath the house of black and white, jon in the wormways and ice cells and never leaving ygritte’s cave and gendel’s children and dreaming of the crypts it’s no use i have to go down … sansa in the eyrie (one of) the highest inhabited point(s) on the continent … what does it all mean #starksunderground

Just some things I think deserve a super accurate movie/show adaption in a beautiful 2D animation style:

The How to Train Your Dragon series

Gregor the Overlander

Artemis Fowl

The Adventure Zone

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Frankenstein or the Modern Prometheus

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (fr so much was left out of the 1939 film!)

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass

The actual Little Mermaid story (there are a ton of adaptations I haven't seen yet so maybe it exists somewhere but we all know Disney’s didn’t even come close)

#the entire series for those that have one if that wasn't clear #some of these need to be done #some just need to be done RIGHT #like fr why is it so hard for adaptations to just be faithful to the source material? It's not rocket science #also why did hunger games get so much love but no one read Gregor the Overlander? #the original little mermaid may be sad as heck but it is also beautiful #I admittedly only read the first few books in some of these series' but still #like did you know there's 14 oz books? #okay imma tag everything now #how to train your dragon #httyd books #gregor the overlander #the underland chronicles #artemis fowl #the adventure zone #taz #the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy #hgttg #frankenstein #frankenstein the modern prometheus #the wizard of oz #alice's adventures in wonderland #the little mermaid #old niche fandoms #adaptation #animation #hans christian andersen #lewis carroll #suzanne collins #cressida cowell

looking at suzanne collins’ list of published novels like yeah. she rly wrote the most fucked up middle grade series ever in which she traumatized a random impoverished 11 year old from new york city by throwing him into a war against giant rats with his 2 year old sister by his side, went on to write a fucked up young adult series about a dystopian revolution that radicalized many gen z kids and opened our eyes to the way our government tries to distract us from senseless killing with spectacle. and thats it! what a queen. wrote two incredibly good series then went “no, i will not elaborate” and kept on living her life.

anyway guys if you like the hunger games and/or really liked animorphs, PLEASE read the underland chronicles. they’re so fucking underappreciated considering how popular the hunger games is.

The way that poverty has affected Gregor is omnipresent. He knows how to care for people and how to make food because his parents can't afford a sitter. He goes to the underland and suddenly he's among royalty and wealth. He remarks how when it's not about to go to war the underland is actually a nice escape from his life. When they're all forced to eat raw fish he notes how he's never been able to have sushi before.

I love how it's not something that just gets solved. Even when Vikus gives them cash in the clock it doesn't *last*. His mom says, "We're going to pay all the bills, and then we're going to have Christmas!". That's so *real*. Like, the series is fantasy but Gregor is still *forced* to live in the real world.

There's also this whole parallel between Ares and Gregor. Both of them were just nobodies having to live on the margins of society until someone wealthy finds a use for you. For Gregor it's Luxa, for Ares it was Henry.

Okay, so this isn't the most well put together or thought out of my rants but... Aughghfhg. The book with the giant sexy rat and the spider that makes you slippers is so god damn *real*.

there's a word for trees kissing eachother. if you even care.

[ID : Two of the beech’s lower limbs have melted into one another, their bark conjoining into a single continuous skin, their vascular systems growing and uniting. Living wood, left long enough, behaves as a slow-moving fluid. Like glacial ice – like the halite I had seen in Boulby, like the calcite I had seen in the Mendips, like stained glass in medieval churches which, over centuries, gradually thickens out at the base of each pane – living wood flows, given time. [...] ‘Actually,’ says Merlin, ‘plant scientists have a technical term for this. We call it “snogging”, or to give it its full name, “tree snogging”.’ He smiles. ‘Well, not quite. The technical term is actually “inosculation”, from the Latin osculare, meaning “to kiss”. Inosculation means “to en-kiss”. It can happen across trees and between species too.’ end ID]

I greatly admire Suzanne Collins goal to never explain any of her stories. She just drops them and goes.

#she leaves the rest of us to make an absolute circus out of it #Suzanne Collins #there was so much negative buzz when Ballad was announced and her response was 'no the ones who get it will get it #those who don't don't none of my business' #The Hunger Games #thg #Catching Fire #Mockingjay #The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes #The Underland Chronicles #tuc #Gregor the Overlander #Fizzy talks #books
