Anne of Green Gables

>Anne of Green Gables
>Series is called "Anne With An E"

they couldn't think up a better title?

Should have called it Anne With a D if you know what I mean

Anned?

>Starring dolly little
10/10

>american poster

WTF

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"

Why do you think they're ruining it by making a degenerate version for the "modern audiences" like this?

>white actress
racist

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

I'll take "Posters that look like a young adult novel" for 500, Alex

>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.

The only degenerate scene was the pet mouse one

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

Who are you talking about?

I liked the part where the acronym for the women's group spelled out PMS

Fuck Prince Edward Island.

fuck, I didn't even catch that

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.

>favoured reading of the Polish army

Hi Adolf

It'll be an edgy adaptation where Jo's a lesbian who has to hide her sexuality.

This

Why isn't it on my Netflix?

It wasn't on my shows page. I had to search for it

yo this actress is fucking ugly

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

>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.

I'd Anne that Green Gable

forgot to mention that this took place all in my head.

wew

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.

Achmed?

This new show is pretty meh.

The comfiness that was achieved with the 1985 CBC series is incomparable.

Without Anne, PEI would be Newfoundland

And that's every bit as sad as it sounds

There are at least two other new Green Gables adaptations running right now. I guess Netflix felt it had to distinguish it somehow.

Fuck, that's a sobering thought.

You from the Island, mate?

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.

Based leaf

CANADA IS BAE

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.

I feel bad for anyone who lives in Canada let alone just the Atlantic states

Trailer Park Boys is a documentary

Why are canadians such faggots

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.

What got up your butt there bud

come on now bud

It's a vibrant and fulfilling lifestyle, buddy

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

You're all full of shit and up your own asses

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?

Don't mistake all Canadians for Torontonians.
They're the ones with the misconception that they're fucking New York fucking City.

...

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.

Ottawan here, we may not be as bad as Toronto but it's pretty fucking close, they're both SJW shitholes

Same
You ever walk on those beaches with the sand that went "screetch screetch"?

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.

>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

No torrent yet?

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.

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.

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.

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.

Hey, whatever steers the next generation away from scurvy and rickets.

I'm all for it.

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.

My parents loved the show too. I have no idea why

Because that's how the world before feminism was like

The show is incredibly feminist in its messaging

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

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.

>states

got a source for that "fun fact"?

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

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.

Dane?

ayy lmao
