Was the book better? #booksky Did the Netflix adaptation do My Oxford Year justice?

Daley is doing NaNoWriMo @daleyday.bsky.social · Sep 26

But seriously, how did My Oxford Year manage to sap Oxford of all it's charm???

I like gardens, trees, and unmechanized farmlands; I smoke a pipe, and like good plain food (unrefrigerated), but detest French cooking; I like, and even dare to wear in these dull days, ornamental waistcoats. I am fond of mushrooms (out of a field); ... (1/3)

Hobbit Day is fast approaching! Perfect opportunity for a re-watch or reread of your preferred Tolkien tale.

I can't stop writing about Jurassic Park help

Why Was ‘The Lost World’ Totally Different From the Book?

After bullying Crichton into writing a sequel to ‘Jurassic Park’, why did Spielberg take the movie a different direction?
