It's more Lynchian, with a touch of Kafkaesque

You are just wasting your time, user. This meme isn't funny or creative enough to be a thing. It's just repetition of one word over and over.

As opposed to?

Probably HP Lovecraft would have found that this has been the dullest franchise in the history of movie franchises. Each episode following the boy wizard (Daniel Radcliffe) and his pals (Rupert Grint, Emma Watson) from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series' only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects—all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.

Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody—just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. (Sadly, Stephenie Meyer and Twilight's producers seem to be following this model.) The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it's certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

is Lovecraft racist?

Clearly no book on that shelf besides the hunger games and the fashion book have ever been opened by this silly skank.

b-but the books were so much better

This is the truth why we will never have a movie based on Lovecraft


Lovecraft was a white loser writer who wrote for low-quality magazines.

Nothing he wrote can be compared to works by modern authors.

The only fans of this mediocre are edgy and lonely semi-illiterate boys and racist right-wingers.

> He was a beta that in the whole life only managed to have sex with a woman, for pity.

> He was an affected racist, his hatred of minorities was a shame even at that time

> He was totally devoid of talent,skill and experience, his works were limited to a few pages without a deep narrative and really complex characters, all of them imitations of himself, an incapable, boring and pathetic white male

> It was too anglo, all his work is based on the limited spectrum of the life of an anglo-saxon man.

> Even though he was only focused on this limited racist expectation of an Anglo-Saxon, he was unable to create characters with whom we can identify with ourselves. Even if you are a descendant of Anglo-Saxons, you cannot identify with his racist and poorly educated characters.

> His scientific knowledge was pathetic even for works from the early 20th century. There would be great difficulty in adapting his lack of knowledge to intelligent content for modern audiences.

> Lack of economic and political knowledge. He flirts several times with eugenic and socialist conduct. Had he lived long enough, he would probably be an admirer of Hitler. This lack of knowledge in these issues makes their work become even more outdated and less complex.

> Total lack of subtexts. He probably did not even know what that word means. He also had an extraordinarily poor vocabulary.

Is it the same person memeing the shit out of this, or is it multiple autosts?

Sneed and Lovecraft posting are the best memes of 2017. I laugh myself silly every time I see the word Lovecraft or Sneed in a thread. Bringing me back to the good old days of when Baneposting started and I laughed every time someone posted FOR YOU.

In summary, Lovecraft is a lame """"""""""artist"""""""""", his work is incapable of captivating people endowed with education, imagination and taste.


Hollywood understands this and seeks to stay away from the pitiful quality and racism that the name Lovecraft is eternally bound.


Here is an example of the """"""""legacy"""""""" of Lovecraft

Cause lord of the rings and lovecraft are soooo highbrow

Well, if you look at the most successful meme on Sup Forums as an example (baneposting), it survived for so long because it's highly flexible and encourages active participation. In contrast, HOWEVER-posting died in a week because there just wasn't much that could be done with it. Some slight modifications here and there, but that's about it. This is even worse, since it's just about inserting a word everywhere.

*autists

Is this pathetic excuse for a human lovecraftian?

Holy shit out of all shitposters you are the most fucking annoying. I wish the mods would permaban you because you're ruining my fucking board experience

For a woman they might as well be,

Not even remotely.

They are definitely highbrow compared to what a woman is able to comprehend, she clearly bought the LOTR set after watching the movies with her boyfriend and spending the whole time on her phone taking selfies so she didn't know what happened other than it was so le nerdy!!!!!

No, but my idea for a cartoon about a boy who falls in love with the human form of an eldritch monster but there's no love redeems bullshit and it's actually incapable of loving him back and is trying to destroy the world so he has to choose between his fantasy or saving his friends is. You can watch it if you donate $50,000 to my Patreon.

It's the Dark Souls of children's literature.

Shit meme

Racist, but not wrong.

In my experience women seem to read a lot more than most men. Who hurt you guys?
