I suppose you are going to tell everyone that Dune was based on a book the next time someone compliments the pacing and direction of that movie?

The poster art for Arrival says it’s based on a story by Ted Chiang, it isn’t some secret nobody knows but you.

What does being original or not have anything to do with what the original commenter wrote? MOST movies are based on previously existing stories. They were focusing on the movie. If you read the book and want to show everyone how much more you know than they do, it would be more impressive if you had said “i read the story the movie was based on, and comparatively, <your opinion here>”. It might have even made for an interesting and productive comment.

That has the same chances of happening as Trump going to jail for his lengthy list of crimes, ya know?

Nobody cares about Trump’s tariffs, it’s the US import companies that have to pay, not the foreign companies selling the imports, and they just pass those costs on to the American consumer.

Nope, under the Democrats, there are many Representatives who would listen and put pressure on a Dem president to do the right thing. Thanks to people with a smooth brain who think BOTH SIDES SAME, they are going to find out what everyone else already knew… they were never the same.
