You see, if you speak in Italian it makes sense. << it expresses itself through sequences of images, >> it’s different from “it is based on.” It’s not “me putting it the way I want,” it’s the convention called word that puts it in certain terms, if used. I still disagree on the underlying concept, but we are entering very personal territories, where there is no truth. For me, this film is and will remain a copy of Welcome To The 36 Chambers, which is heavily inspired by 70s kung-fu cinema transported into the neighborhood competitions of 90s New York Projects. "Shaolin Shadowboxin."

Wait, wait... we always need to see what you believe the meaning of "to base" is. If you don't mean the definition understood in the Italian language, then perhaps we agree. But in Italian, I would say I think the opposite. You want to tell or describe something, and you use writing or a camera. It's not that you want to write words just to bind them in a piece of cardboard; instead, you use a story to do that. The starting "base" - if altered - also changes the final objective, which is no small matter.

Ah, and of course a book is not "based" on the word; it's just the chosen channel of dissemination.

Okay Muffin, I already understood how you thought three posts ago. Now that we have repeated the same concept three times while still disagreeing, are you satisfied enough or do you want to keep writing the same thing without changing a comma, convinced that sooner or later you will convince the whole world? A movie does not "rely" on images, it "utilizes" them. It's different.

I've already written it; if you really want me to repeat it, fine: for me, a film that takes its story from a book cannot be original. It can be beautiful, awful, average, but not original. If it has copied the story, how can a copy be original? It's normal and even right that these films exist, but that doesn't change the fact that calling the director original is inaccurate. Moreover, apart from rare cases, they do nothing but ruin the reading of a good book; maybe after reading the book, you appreciate them less, but that's okay. However, if you've seen the film first, the book is ruined; you know everything that will happen.

<< films about wars can't be based on books? >> Look what you've written: "because the newspapers have already talked about it." Newspapers, you know? If a "newspaper" talks about it, it means it's about actual events, not literary fiction. But if now, after realizing the blunder you made, you refer to it as "portali a libro e film," then I've simply said what I wanted to say. Maybe occasionally, before posting a comment, try banging your head against the Zingarelli; it might just transfer the meaning of some terms from the paper to your brain. An experience for real tough guys.

The Kraut is here, more like the early Neu! than Galactic Supermarket, but it's always Krauto; indeed, perhaps it’s more representative of a certain "German matrix" a specific semi-dancefloor bass (the second and the seventh) than the electronic deliriums that the Germans have only pushed to the extreme rather than originating. In the room, there's a poster of Klaus Dinger, pretty big, with an altar below it to sacrifice something every Friday night before going out to get wasted. His record label has only released people I don’t know, so I've found something to thoroughly explore this winter; it's called DC records and is located on Portobello Road in London. An address is a guarantee.

But indeed I compared Book with Film, you equated my comparison to True Story with Film That Reports It, and that's completely irrelevant. Moreover, when I pointed it out to you, you went back (perhaps - or I hope for you - aware of the lack of sense) to Book With Film. You brought up Hitler and the films about him to conclude your nonsense, not me.

I simplify by saying, like you, that it's so complicated that it's better not to talk about it in these venues; in fact, for me, it's even worse: so complicated that it's barely resolvable 90% of the time, and absolutely unsolvable 100%. Anyway, I think we're going too far; it's pointless to continue any further. << Sorry if I sometimes seem arrogant, >> I am much, much worse than you; you're knocking on an open door.

Smash, have them print a onesie with the cover of To Mega Therion, I made a t-shirt for my nephew but my sister never put it on him. Listen to Salsa & Merengue, I don't think there's any need to say more to explain my shame.
