Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.
I read the book when I was a kid, but I don't remember much about it. I never saw the movie but, IIRC, Rory Calhoun was in it.

Yes indeed.

Also that movie got it wrong because Alexis Bledel is the one who never ages.

You know, the thing about the Chocolate War is that it was a book we never were assigned to read in class, but a ton of students eventually did for some reason. The movie was sort of good if I remember, but I'm still really surprised that in the last 20 some years they haven't remade it. I'm sure that there were a lot of things over the last 2 decades that likely made it an unpopular choice to re-adapt, though.

Heck, I'm surprised the CW doesn't do a Chocolate War TV series. it seems almost right up their alley. It's set in a Catholic school, so they could probably have some vampires from another show appear in a crossover if they wanted.

Speaking of other old YA styled literature that probably should get a movie made: "Why I Left Harry's All-Night Hamburgers" It seems like it could be milked for a combination Star Wars Cantina with a bit of Rick and Morty meets small-town teenage coming of age movie that could be made for about $25M.

This is a metaphor, a Christian allegory. The fact that I have to explain to you that Jesus is the Warthog, and the Banana is drepanocytosis is just embarrassing for you.



I didn't read the thread, but I just wanted to stop by and say this was a weak bait operation, OP, and you can do better than trying to get some Johnny come-lately to post a "cuck everlasting" parody thread.

it was both because of the jokes, but mostly because i was genuinely curious if anyone had ever read this weird book and/or seen a play about it when they were a kid
