rotor posted:i have fond memories of the elric series but i was like 12 at the time. can an adult tell me if they're actually any good? they very wildly from "eh" to "holy poo poo quit whining you loving nancy" to "hay this wasn't bad and actually had some character depth ok i guess i liked it" the ratios of each are the subject of infinite debate i'd say it's about 5000:243112609-1:2

Farmer Crack-rear end posted:did anyone ever watch the earthworm jim cartoon as a kid? that show fuckin owned. the earthworm jim where the plot revolved around how dogs had once committed a great sin and as such dog hell had been created and vacuums were all independent portals to dog hell which is why dogs were both terrified of them and ashamed of their terror man aside from maybe the very very old popeye cartoons (the ones old enough where he is muttering vile nasty murderous swear-filled death threats about people constantly), that poo poo is the absolute height of animated hilarity ever

geraldo ricky ricardo martinez cant write for poo poo his story is p good though so you can read it once and get all annoyed at the wrong places and hate on it, usually in the middle of "the worth of half a groat" but if you go back and read it again later it's not bad it's not great either, but that's mostly because of all the chaff, and it's been decades since anyone wrote anything even near "ok" epic fantasy so w/e

dexter based closely on the books was good the books get REALLY weird like lovecraftian it could have been an amazing tv show if they'd kept following the books, but since they didn't they're adrift in the land of mediocrity w/o anything to guide them
