this was a bad thread the first time it was posted

>>84107850
This would actually be better than the movie they'll release.

>>84107946
/tv/ was never good.

You dont have to make the same thread every day faggot. Especially when its a really bad thread like this one. Sage

>>84107850
is Chthulu the reddit of fictional monsters?

>>84107983
Who knows and really, who cares.

>>84107958
>/tv/ was never good.
Of course you'd say that, shit went south the day you arrived.

>>84107983
I honestly would say that Lovecraft isn't reddit.

Lovecraft threads always turn into shit. 16 year old philosopher wannabes shilling their ideal movie where people just talk about existential horrors for 2 hours.

You know the problem isn't a Lovecraft movie being made, it's that they'll fuck up the central premise that these are gods beyond human conception, sort of. They can't be defeated, and that's exactly what these movies would do.

What's lovecraft? Is that a game or something?

Cthulhu is cool though

>>84107983
Yes

What does an Earth shattering fart noise sound like?

I have a feeling that this post may be ironic but there actually are people who think Cthulhu is just Sea Godzilla.

Is reddit the Cthulhu of online communities?

What would a good protagonist for a Lovecraft movie be like? All his stories have non-protagonists that wouldn't work in a movie.

>>84107983
yes

>>84109562
>can't be defeated
but they always are just like in dunwich horror, call of cthulhu and others. I know the "defeat" isn't permanent but there is no reason why these stories couldn't be turned into movies

Cthulhu was defeated by humans
with 20s technology

Cthulhu is just a random alien who serves the god, he's nothing special

A couple of modern US marines would be enough to take him down

>>84117716
I think the main conflict is an interior one, based on the protagonist. he is always troubled by his pshychological issues. and when an out of this wolrd abomination from another dimension appears, it may be his mind. what else?

I don't know.

Dagon would make for a good short film, like an hour long tops.

It would be hard to fuck up but they would inevitably stray from fhe source material and give it a happy ending

90% of Lovecraft stories aren't about incomprehensible alien gods. They're about ghosts and dreams and niggers.
It's all been public domain for years and most of his works are under 20 pages long, there's really no excuse for being this ignorant.

>>84117716
Dunwich Horror

Beginning lacks a POV character before Armitage shows up or just start with Wilbur breaking into the university, short detective like sequence where he interviews the town and the events leading up to the university breakin, buildup to the actual dunwich horror.

Book's story layout wouldn't work in film.

Computer,

In the lovecraftian style, create a story being recounted by a member of the set of characters of that story -- start in the past tense but increasingly shift between present and past tense until it's clear that the author is writing the story AS the villain of the story is coming up the st-

>>84118475
>90% of Lovecraft stories aren't about incomprehensible alien gods. They're about...

They're actually about Lovecraft's fear of black people and his squeamishness about sexual intercourse -- which explains why 4chan is so fucking obsessed with Lovecraft.

>>84118475
Yes, but those aren't his "lovecraftian" works. What really defined him as a writer, and made him stand in his own were the cosmic horror, mythos stories. Those are the ones where his own voice is stronger, and what everybody thinks of when they hear "Lovecraft".

>>WHAT IF CTHULU....WAS A GIRL?

>>84118686
The handsome and intelligent man sat down to decipher the runes of his ancient mangas when he uncovered a ritual that summons an unspeakable horror.

The black monstrosity approached him. It had a stride that wasn't quite human but appeared to almost glide as it swayed back and forth. It had long, greasy strands of hairlike appendages attached to the rough cotton like fur atop its head. Piercing the silence with barks that mimiced human language but it wasn't a dialect he had ever heard before.

"Ayo whyte boi," it barked with gutteral noises as its head swayed back and forth in an inhuman rythym "u finna git summa dis here pussi?" He swallowed back his fear and handed the thing a wad of cash.

What he saw next no one would believe could be considered human anatomy. The troubling thoughts drove Anon to begin drinking and eventually to take his own life.
