John (Hey Y'all Listen Up) 20 Posted October 13, 2021 Stacey created the events in the calendar, so I assumed she was going to. I can host one of them if necessary. I only have the free version of Streamyard, so I am limited to six. Also, I don't mind participating in the chat only if we have too many people who want to join in. 2 Steve and Stacyejaye reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stacyejaye 321 Posted October 14, 2021 @Lasraik I was going to host, but I'm more than happy to let someone else (@John (Hey Y'all Listen Up) ?) to host one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve 3,863 Posted October 27, 2021 Made it about 40 minutes into the Dracula TV series before we threw in the towel. I’m ok with it not being a faithful adaptation, it’s just bad. Really bad. 1 Stacyejaye reacted to this Quote Steve IRL ► Personal Links: YouTube (booktube) ● OTBSteve YouTube (MTB and cycling) ● Strava ● Last.fm ● GoodReads ● Vero ◄ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just, why??? I'm going to watch the 1992 adaptation. It isn't true to the book either (based on the trailer). I've never seen it, but anything had to be better than the Netflix trash Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I have more thoughts on this Dracula Netflix garbage that I'm sure will come up in the meetup Quote Steve IRL ► Personal Links: YouTube (booktube) ● OTBSteve YouTube (MTB and cycling) ● Strava ● Last.fm ● GoodReads ● Vero ◄ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John (Hey Y'all Listen Up) 20 Posted October 28, 2021 Why do I feel challenged to finish the Netflix series regardless? (I'm still trying to finish the book.) 1 bookchara reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
