they couldn't think up a better title?
>>82910290
Should have called it Anne With a D if you know what I mean
>>82910361
Anned?

WTF
>>82910290
Fun fact: Anne of Green Gables used to be so popular, that WW2 Polish soldiers were often give a copy to remind them of what they were fighting for
Japan and Korea also loves "Red-headed Anne"
>>82910944
Why do you think they're ruining it by making a degenerate version for the "modern audiences" like this?
>white actress
racist
>>82911235
I don't know how they'll fuck it up
It's a very simple story about a weird orphan girl growing up, becoming a teacher, and then marrying the boy she teased
>>82910290
I'll take "Posters that look like a young adult novel" for 500, Alex
>>82910290
>Netflix series called Anne
>doesn't star Mae Whitman
>isn't an Arrested Development spinoff
>isn't called Egg
>isn't called Her?
>isn't called Bland
We don't need this series.
>>82911235
The only degenerate scene was the pet mouse one
>>82910290
As someone who loves the original CBC adaptation this was better than I was expecting, some shitty writing here and there. I get that it's a feminist story by nature, but there are some points they jump off the fucking deep end with it.
saw this on my netflix tv pop up. is she young? reminded me of jim carrey red haired girl vcuteneds
Still waiting for a good modern adaptation of Little Women. The pinnacle of adolescent chick lit
>>82911399
Who are you talking about?
>>82911452
I liked the part where the acronym for the women's group spelled out PMS
Fuck Prince Edward Island.
>>82911546
fuck, I didn't even catch that
>>82910361
Manne
I remembering have to read this book and I never hated a character or concept more in my life. Anyone who actually enjoys the ramblings of a teenage girl should be taken to a ditch and shot.
>>82911620
>favoured reading of the Polish army
Hi Adolf
>>82911493
It'll be an edgy adaptation where Jo's a lesbian who has to hide her sexuality.
>>82911559
This
Why isn't it on my Netflix?
>>82912088
It wasn't on my shows page. I had to search for it
yo this actress is fucking ugly
>>82910470
Id watch it
>Go to Prince Edward Island
>Go to a tour of Anne of Green Gable's house
>Ask the guide person if it is ethical for Prince Edward Island to create tourist attractions based on fictional characters that do not necessarily represent actual history
>Guide asks me what I think jewish concentration camps are
>>82912559
>that do not necessarily represent actual history
But it does
It's not like Anne fights space aliens or lies to the world in order to make her people immune from prosecution as they annex sovereign territory for their own use.
>>82912361
I'd Anne that Green Gable
>>82912559
forgot to mention that this took place all in my head.
>>82912361
wew
>>82912559
Anne's pretty integral to PEI's economy. Without her, the island would probably sink into the Northumberland Strait.
Also, your post made me chuckle.
>>82910361
Achmed?
>>82910290
This new show is pretty meh.
The comfiness that was achieved with the 1985 CBC series is incomparable.
>>82913041
Without Anne, PEI would be Newfoundland
And that's every bit as sad as it sounds
>>82910290
There are at least two other new Green Gables adaptations running right now. I guess Netflix felt it had to distinguish it somehow.
>>82913156
Fuck, that's a sobering thought.
>>82913189
You from the Island, mate?
>>82913247
I'm from Nova Scotia, but I spent a lot of time on the island growing up.
It'll always have a warm spot in me ticker.
>>82912559
Based leaf
CANADA IS BAE
>>82913353
Yeah, half my grandparents were from there.
Grampy's buried there now.
Spent a little time there as a kid. Rained a lot in the summer.
>>82913156
I feel bad for anyone who lives in Canada let alone just the Atlantic states
>>82913433
Trailer Park Boys is a documentary

>>82913433
Why are canadians such faggots
>>82913432
Hope he's resting well.
Yeah, the weather there can be a little bit ornery. Typical island weather; coming in like a motherfucker out of nowhere.
>>82913562
What got up your butt there bud
>>82913562
come on now bud
>>82913562
It's a vibrant and fulfilling lifestyle, buddy
>>82913605
Hope so. I'll learn the pipes one day because of him.
There this one time around 98 where we were set up in a camping lot. Storm blew the fuck in and we had to take refuge in the main building. They had a big TV so we watched Independence Day.
Sorry for being a bit rambly. Tad in my cups
>>82913609
You're all full of shit and up your own asses
>>82913693
If you consider no career and substance abuse to be vibrant and fulfilling then maybe
That's the truth of the matter. Don't mean it's bad or nothing, just don't sugar coat it, eh?
>>82913882
Don't mistake all Canadians for Torontonians.
They're the ones with the misconception that they're fucking New York fucking City.
>>82912559
>>82913840
No worries, I'm on the verge of tying one on tonight myself.
Sounds pretty comfy, man. Maybe it's nostalgia, but the island always has such a cozy vibe to it.
>>82913990
Ottawan here, we may not be as bad as Toronto but it's pretty fucking close, they're both SJW shitholes
>>82914068
Same
You ever walk on those beaches with the sand that went "screetch screetch"?
>>82913924
I think we clearly have different ideas of what faggot means there, bud.
I'm just a simple bundle of twigs aspiring to one day be fuel.
>>82914071
>Ottawa
>on the same scale as Toronto
No one gives a shit about Ottawa
You're not even on the fucking radar
Fucking Calgary is given more respect than you fucking governmental pissants
>>82910290
No torrent yet?
>>82914135
Heh, I know exactly what you mean.
My dad used to say that it had something to do with dead fish imbuing the sand with special properties.
I think he might have been entirely full of shit.
>>82914356
Haha yeah
I remember one time my pop told me that sundried tomatoes were "Australian sun fruit" or some shit on account of my dislike of tomatoes.
I've been living with my toddler nephew for a while and I can totally understand why our dads lied so much.
>>82914475
Good ol' dad wisdom gets the job done.
When I was a little shit, my old man would get me to eat veggies by saying that's how truckers gained their tremendous strength.
I had a slightly skewed idea of truckers as a young feller.
>>82914656
My nephew thinks I'm the strongest man in the universe.
So my sister says if he wants to get as strong as his uncle, he needs to eat his veggies.
I don't dissuade the idea.
>>82914776
Hey, whatever steers the next generation away from scurvy and rickets.
I'm all for it.
>>82913990
Toronto can get nuked for all I care. I'm talking about the real townie bluecollar leaf fags
My mom loved this show, and this hate shit like this. Girly and sappy.
It isn't even nostalgia. Anne isn't know here. Nor the book (s?) or the old show.
>>82914982
My parents loved the show too. I have no idea why
>>82914982
>>82915766
Because that's how the world before feminism was like
>>82915837
The show is incredibly feminist in its messaging
>>82915950
How much so?
I've only read the original books
Anne was a free spirit who did what she wanted
But she wasn't "Grrrr every advance I make should be at the cost of a man."
Like she was a person with dreams and shit but wasn't trying to make other people fail in order for her to find purpose
>>82916010
I don't know if it's in the book, but there's a scene where a priest comes in order to help Anne's parents deal with her, and he tells them that they should marry her off when she's old enough. The show then gets into this entire subplot where Anne befriends a spinster who talks about marriage as if its stifling and unnecessary for women, which is basically the Jezebel view of marriage. There are also "female empowerment" scenes sprinkled throughout.
>>82913433
>states
>>82910944
got a source for that "fun fact"?
>>82916135
It's been a while since I read the books, but Anne being opposed to young marriage makes sense
It's not a feminist thing, it's a "She's a weirdo" thing
Like in the book, you're not to think she's normal
She's a weirdo that questions everything
Her going "Ugh, I don't want to marry" isn't being feminist
It's her being weird and out of the ordinary
In the book she does eventually marry the boy that bullied her and she bullied back.
They're both suppose to be ultimately good kids
That's the whole thing, I think. Anne is a weird orphan who eventually becomes a normal woman. And the normal life of PEI goes on
>>82916331
It's impossible to draw a comparison unless you've seen the show. Anne's mother literally joins a feminist reading group.
>mfw all these canadians
The feminist stuff isn't as annoying as I feared. It's an okay show.
I always liked Emily of New Moon better.
>>82910361
Dane?

ayy lmao
