Emperor, to movies in The Thing From Another World and The Thing
@Emperor@feddit.uk avatar

I’d add Return of the Living Dead as a quasi-sequel to Night of the Living Dead.

Good call - it’s probably the best NotLD sequel/remake after Dawn of the Dead.

Also, Psycho hasn’t been mentioned.

I still don’t see the point of a shot-for-shot remake but if OP is looking for B&W remakes then this is a must-see.

Cat People is another.

I’m disappointed that I forgot this.

It’s the best way to watch it. I imported the Canadian DVD back in the day to get the B&W version.

Three hours and 26 minutes but it feels like 5.

Emperor, to privacyguides in Lemmy is most censored social media than instagram,facebook,reddit,etc...

Isn’t one of the chief selling points of the Fediverse that you can’t be censored because there’s always some instance that will welcome you? Another USP is that the rest of us don’t have to read it if we don’t want to.

You get freedom of speech and we get freedom from that speech (assuming it’s objectionable, and I have yet to see one of these posts where some complains about being stopped from posting funny cat memes).

So, for right now, we have to keep our fingers crossed and hope the developers take up the call for a change

Indeed - we need better moderating tools asap. I believe there’s a Lemmy fork working on that.

@Emperor@feddit.uk avatar

I’m on Matrix because I want to be, I’m on Discord because I have to for certain communities. I’d never pay for Nitro.

At least now we can give Leia back her proper name when she was in Jabba’s palace.

Not as good as Boba Fett’s Spaceship Leia.

Emperor, to asklemmy in Is it worth to read Star Wars novels?
@Emperor@feddit.uk avatar

They are reprinting them at the moment so don’t rule it out but it’s a relatively expensive undertaking and so it’s unlikely that they’d splash out on Legends material unless they sell well. Eventually AI will bang these out I suppose.

Definitely this - they’re some of the best military science-fiction and, along with The Clone Wars series, give Order 66 a lot of added weight.

I feel like it will be bad because authors won’t have freedom to make things their way.

The series both disproves and proves this statement - Karen Traviss definitely had the freedom to make things her own way until she didn’t. She stopped writing because she didn’t feel she could make it work with the new status quo (although I think if you squint a bit and lean into the “legends” idea, that these are legends which may have happened from a certain point of view even if all the details may not be correct, it can still work, at least for me).

Apparently I like villain books.

I joked to a friend that a disproportionate number of my Star Wars books have “Darth” in the title.

Emperor, to asklemmy in How do I block all porn/nude posts?
@Emperor@feddit.uk avatar

I’m not seeing any of that. Not saying it is a good or bad thing, just a thing. So OP has choices, perhaps going to a smaller instance will help as I assume lemmy.world’s “all” is probably quite the firehose of diverse content by now.
