How would you go about adapting this?
step 1: grab the source materialstep 2: throw it in the trash
>>220825328Mini series. 10 episodes. Stick to the original 10 books. Page by page, panel by panel. Anything else, anything less, toning down anything at all would just be Walking Dead with rage zombies. The Crossed are not zombies, they are just humans who lost all inhibitions and with it all morals. They will act on every impulse, on every intrusive thought. And the adaptation needs to be exactly that.
>>220825328I wouldn't it's got no story, just gratuitous violence. You never root for anyone, which makes it so hard to read through.
>>220825455That prompt needs work.
>>220825328You're in luck, there is a live action film adaptation coming out this year or probably next year.
chinks already did it better than any westcuck studio could
>>220825906the dude that made the sadness is directing the official adaptation
>>220825906The director was a White Canadian and he is directing the live action Crossed film.
>>220825906>did it betterI liked that movie but that's just absurd>no humor (integral part of Crossed)>gore pretty tame even for movie standards, not even close to Crossed standardsI dunno why /tv/ can't just leave an honest take on this movie. It's always A-HA HERE'S YOUR CROSSED YOU THOUGHT THERE WAS NO CROSSED MOVIE BUT THIS IS ACTUALLY THE CROSSED MOVIE DESPITE BEING ALMOST NOTHING LIKE CROSSED OTHER THAN HAVING SIMILAR MONSTERS
>>220825328Garth Ennis is extremely mentally ill. Guy is on the same level as the director of A Serbian Film.The only remotely faithful adaptation would have to be outsourced to some thirdie country with literally zero censorship laws like Serbia.
>>220825328i woodnt
>>220825985You seem upset
>>220826072You seem upset
>>220825328impossible without toning it down a lot
>>220825985I do not understand your post, the similar monsters is the biggest point for people comparing them because it's the biggest selling point of both stories. humans who are aware of what they are doing, can plan and enjoy sadistic impulses. no shit they'll be compared because the monsters doing fucked up shit is the main selling point for both
>>220826033I mean you can absolutely make a 100% faithful adaptation legally in the US. You'd have to fund and distribute it yourself tho. Maybe netflix would stream it. But you would absolutely have to make it on your own first and then maybe someone is going to pitch in for a slice of the cake.
>>220825985The creators said they were inspired by Crossed. Take a chill pill.
>>220826149You seem upset
>>220826033There shouldn't be legal problems as long as you don't use the likeness of any specific living people (which the comics doesn't iirc).
>>220825906>>220825328The Crazies is good too. Highly underrated and same premise as crossed/sadness.
>>220825328Not sure I'd do any of the direct comic adaptations, other than the Horsecock guy.
