So this film is LITERALLY Slaughterhouse 5, how the fuck did

>how the fuck did they get away with it?

People don't read, thus it's novel

This movie looks incredibly boring though

But Slaughterhouse Five is entry level normielit

>>8761975
It is literally based on

"The story of your life"

I discovered this when someone brought up the movie in my logic class and i said it sounded like said story. I didn't know much about the movie, and I spoiled the end of the book.

Everyone in the class hates me now, professor included.

Don't repeat my mistake, do your research.

I think the failure of the novel to capture Dresden, and Vonnegut's own aching desire for apathy contrasted against his disappointment with the world, his life and the book - create a very meta and paradoxical tragedy.

You overestimate "normies" re: reading

>>8761975
The witch was the most /lit/ movie of the year. Wouldst thou like to live deliciously?

>>8761992
>he thinks normies read at all

Spoiling the end of the story for people about to see the movie is the most meta thing possible and I highly encourage it.

I actually liked Arrival. It was quite slow at times though.
