First of all, I hate netflix and I'll rant at them in a separate post, but for now I'd like to say how grateful I am for Shadow and Bone.
Last summer I randomly bought Six of Crows, just because I'd vaguely heard of it and the Shadow and bone books and show and I'd heard they were good.
To be honest, It took a bit to get into soc when I was reading it, but once I understood what was going on, I could not put it down and had to buy crooked kingdom and all the sab books and I watched the first season of the show immediately after. I have never loved a book this much, and the grishaverse was by far my favourite fantasy series, if not my favourite book series.
I was so invested in these books and the show and I wish I could read and watch it all for the first time again.
The show is probably my one of my favourite book adaptations and I could not believe how good the cgi was and how beautiful and detailed the costumes were, how much effort was put into the set, and how perfect the cast was, especially the crows cast, I'm very upset that we won't get a spin off, but in my opinion what we did get was so good, and nothing can ruin my love for six of crows and shadow and bone,
So thank you to Leigh Bardugo, the cast, the writers, the costume designers, the producers, everyone involved in this series for giving us such an amazing fantasy show
Random Question
How do I get into the marauders fandom? Like is there actually much about them in the books, or is there a specific fanfic I need to read or something like it sounds like a cool fandom but I don't know anything about the characters
So glad they put this scene in the show
I bought the collectors edition of Shadow and Bone and it had a netflix sticker on it??!
Like ?? Excuse me ? At least it was one that peeled off but like get ur dirty netflix stickers off my fancy books π
This meme format fits perfectly into this scene
I normally post Shadow and Bone/Six of Crows stuff so enjoy some trashy Daisy Jones and the Six Memes
I always found it weird that people called Kaz Dirtyhands in the books, cause like I know it's metaphorical but I was thinking like, the guy always wears gloves, if anything he has very clean hands
How I imagined Kaz and Wylan's first meeting
So I just had a thought,
I read online that SoC is set roughly 3 years after SaB, so the crows would've been age 13-15 during the SaB trilogy, and I was just thinking like how funny would it be if they were those ages in the show like imagine the Darkling getting bested by fourteen year old Kaz
Anyways keep streaming shadow and bone
KEEP STREAMING SHADOW AND BONE!!!!
Please stream season 2 we need the crows spinoff !!
I was thinking Kasper with a K but that's too similar to Jesper I guess
Or Katherine
- kazoo
- kazakhstan
- alakazam
- karles (charles -> chaz: karles -> kaz)
- a million billion kazillion
- kazmat suit
- kazzercise
- Potassium Arizona
Keep streaming season 2 !!
Sorry about the last two π₯²
STREAM SEASON 2 AS MUCH AS YOU CAN WE NEED THAT CROWS SPINOFF !!
Stream Shadow and Bone !!!!
I've finally finished Shadow and Bone Season 2 so here are some of my thoughts :
β οΈ spoilers β οΈ
STURMHOND OMG
Kaz's backstory scenes were done so well
Tolya and Tamar are iconic- Tolya's so sweet with his poetry
Daisy Head's performance was SO INCREDIBLE she was perfect as Genya
Nina being a queen as usual
Srurmhond's ship was so cool
The Darkling and Alina's scenes were exactly how I imagined them in the book
WESPER !!
Jack Wolfe literally IS Wylan he was so good, and he wrote his own piano music apparently? And his lil goggles and his facial expressions aw he's perfect
Kaz covered in blood-
THE HALLUCINATION SCENES
The kanej scene in the last episode- Freddie and Amita killed it, I could literally see Kaz thinking 'you, Inej, you' π
What's happening?!? David can't die yet!
The little Zoyalai scene-
Alina keeping her powers !! Love that
Overall, I really enjoyed this season, It was very different to the books and some of it did seem rushed, but I didn't mind at all.
The writing could've been better but the cast was amazing, and I really hope we get a third season
Anyways, stream and rewatch shadow and bone season 2 so we can get that crows season !!
Sam Claflin is never gonna disappoint when it comes to a book to screen adaptations. Truly.
WYLAN VAN-ECK NATION HOW ARE WE FEELING???
personally I am not well
The struggle with hardback books
And 5 star reviews are like paragraphs of reasons why the book is perfect and an iconic piece of literature or just "ASHDHHDKHKDBBXJK IT'S AMAZING"
I love how 1 star book reviews are either like a whole analysis of the book and how the plot is bad and the characters are unrealistic and how the author is problematic etc or just "this book sucked lol"
I read and watched Twilight for the first time recently and I have some thoughts:
- Why are the Cullens in high school ?? They're like over 100 years old and they're going to school with minors ?? Just so they can stay in town for a few extra years ??
- Did the ppl making the movie notice that the owl statue made Edward look like he has fairy wings ? Was it on purpose ?
- Bella's boring and Edward's creepy. There. I said it.
- The book would be so much better if Bella wasn't there and it was just about the Cullens hanging out and playing baseball
- Alice x Jasper ? Yeah I don't see it ( she should be with me π )
- So Jessica, Mike and Co. just like invited Bella into their friendship group and they were really nice to her and she just blew them off for a MAN ?! ( Girl what ??) I would have loved to make friends that fast but she doesn't even care
- Edward sparkling in the sun and being all like "this is the skin of a killer, Bella" π
- The Cullens were so proud of the dinner they cooked for Bella and she didn't even want it π Invite me over ! I'll eat it !
- Where did Laurent go ? I swear he was like the leader of the weird evil vampires and he just disappeared? Did I miss something ?
- Edward just like π§ββοΈ watching Bella sleep
- Do the Cullens have to keep updating their drivers licenses, birth certificates etc over and over again ?
- Why do the Cullens keep living the same lives just to fit in ? Why can't y'all just live in a castle or something like normal vampires?
- Why are people arguing over Edward and Jacob when Carlisle is right there?
Overall, the book and film weren't my kind of thing but they were fairly entertaining. Yes there are some parts of twilight I didn't like but I will be reading and watching the sequels at some point :)
This was helpful thank you π
