How is this going to work? They did the whole book in the first season.
>>224085338Same way all other books adaptions work. They'll go off the rails.
The entire second season is about her new super power: breast and ass inflation
Somehow Carrie returned
easythey'll do a doctor sleep tier capeshit
>>224085338>HowEasy. Look at stuff like the IT show. They'll just go into the past and show other people in her family line having the same power
flanagan just really wanted to make OC carrie fan fiction for some reason
>>224085338As I understand it it's meant to be a shared universe thing, we follow other espers now
>>224085421All the changes were King’s idea
Season 2 will adapt “Firestarter” with Carrie attempting to rescue Charlie from the government and recruit her to the Shining Avengers.
>>224085460How many telekinetic/pathic kids are there in the Kingverse?
>>224085338The last episode was a fucking disaster. 5mins dedicated to what the entire story should have built up to and the rest spent on franchising.The entire season just feels like an excuse for Flanigans backdoor pilot bullshit.Between this and Crystal Lake, I'm convinced modern writers lack the creativity to tell a story without the safety net of a familiar IP to catch their fall.>>224085360
>>224085489Lots but the true knot eats them
>>224085489Many. Psychics show up often in King's works, and they are often the target of more powerful Supernatural threats>Overlook ghosts>True Knot>Crimson King>Cantoi
>>224085338If Flanagan is smart season 2 will be Carrie on the run as she's pursued by the feminine witch cult and the masculine shop agents. Both of which want Carrie for their own purposes, and both equally shitty in their own way.If Flanagan wants to be truly ambitious, and Amazon lets him, he can even throw in the Cantoi as hunting Carrie.
>>224085520Last Exorcism 2 does much the same things and better. All in one movie.
>>224085532I mean kids. Carrie, Charlie, Danny, Abra. Yeah, they'll create characters, but I wonder if any established ones will show up.
>>224085338Carrie will go around the country killing misogynist chuds who abuse women
>>224085596There's also the creatives from Nos4a2, it's written by King's son and probably exists in King's greater universe.
>>224085338Nice bulge.
>Dude, what if we name the episodes...after high school classes! Get it? it takes place in school!
>>224085520It was King behind the changes not Flanigan. He basically went into it as if he wrote Carrie later in his career and not as his fist book and how he’d tie it into his other stories
>>224085338Probably will follow her and her new black lesbian girlfriend as they smash the patriarchy
>>224085338lol I've been looking at too much futanari hentai
>>224085338the ratings must have been really good to renew this fast.i liked it apart from teh ending. i cant imagine the second season being any good. the best characters are dead (chris) and the worst character (emeline) is going to be front and centre. plus the stupid witches cove.
>>224085338It looks like she has a massive boner. It's like that frame from the little mermaid where the priest looks like he has a boner.
>>224086054Regardless, what he did was rob it of an ending, stripping away all the catharsis her story originally had so they can create another dumbfuck universe. Marvel Disney really was cancerous to the entertainment industry.>>224086125It's gonna be incredibly gay. The ending was so terrible. "Let's have Margaret White survive Carrie, only to be needlessly murdered by a nobody just to try and drum up interest for a big bad next season.It was cruel and absolutely deflates the use of the showdown between Carrie and her mom.I swear, Stephen King has reached Carpenter level of not giving a fuck.
>>224085338Goddamn Carrie is HUNG
>>224087324There has been two Carrie movies and a miniseries covering the book. I don’t see the problem going a different direction for yet another Carrie adaption
>>224087412I do if the direction deviates from the entire purpose of said story. How can you not see what was so horribly wrong about these additions? By having Emeline control Carrie she is robbed of her agency in the final fucking hour. It was obviously their way of keeping her innocent, but contradicts all the set up leading to this conclusion. They tried to have their cake and eat it too, but at the end of the day this was one of the best adaptations of the story for 80% of it's runtime before shitting the bed for the sake of shillings.
>>224085489>>224085523>>224085532The Institute has had an endless supply 70+ years strong
>More cute cunny incomingBased even if, for what i remember, the other powered-up girls are all ugly mutts.
>>224085338You now understand why they didn't cast an ugly actress for an ugly character. It's all about the male gaze.
>>224085338>How is this going to work?two wordsstinky lesbian action
>>224087529>By having Emeline control Carrie she is robbed of her agency in the final fucking hourI really didn't understand this decision. It didn't even make sense from the perspective of the death cult wanting to recruit her. They NEED her to lose control and massacre everyone on her own so they can make her feel like she belongs with them. By taking control of Carrie they are just leaving her an easy out once she gets guilty enough to turn on them.
>>224088179Exactly. It's just all around messy storytelling stitched into a story it didn't belong in.It's been decades since I revisited any of the Carrie adaptations, yet these new additions stood out like a sore thumb. Like, you can instictivelty tell these don't belong cause they shit all over the pacing and overall flow of the series.The modernizations were handled just fine. The only gripe I had there was with Sue heading over to prom before trying calls and text. It's the kinda thing that can be excused in the original cause folks had landlines then, but was dumb as fuck in this adaptation. It never felt like anyone was doing enough that night.>school had a fucking riot calling the whole idea of prom into question, so they decide not to have security or police on site.>Who's that lady? She's certainly not dressed for the occasion.
>>224088494The whole prom sequence would've hit harder if everyone was doing all they could, exhausting all resources and yet still, the bucket drops. It would have played into the principals be kind to each other bit, showing everyone doing their best in that one final moment.Instead it was played so passive and by the numbers that there wasn't a doubt in your mind what was coming next.It would be nice if instead of rebooting to modernize and franchise, they could make more of an effort to improve on the source material every once in a while. For some reason they think lore is a great substitute for character arcs and theme.
I only watched the final scene and it looked like the bitch was being groomed for Xavier's school for the gifted. This version had capeslop written all over it
Carrie meets up with Danny during S2's finale and Father Callahan comes out of a portal and tells them: "There's someone I want you to meet". Hard cut to black as we hear a a revolver reloading and Randall Flagg laughing.
>>224085445No wonder his books sucks
>>224088179it still works better for season 2 if she loses control, feels guilty, and then emeline picks her up (hopefully in the last 30 seconds of the episode because i fucking hate that character). she then has unresolved guilt to deal with in season 2. the way it ended was super retarded...she has seemingly forgotten what she did and is all happy !!!!!! about everything. wtf. the 2002 adaptation handled this better and it was also setting up for a sequel (which never happened).
I really enjoyed the show outside the ending, and I have absolutely no interest in "fanfiction carrie goes on wacky stranger things esque adventures with witches"
what is the point of creating a 'universe' anyway. it just diminishes the original characters. i've never understood this fetish hollywood has for doing this, apart from the obvious one, which is making more money.think about it. superman + batman. batman in his own universe...makes sense. uses technology to overcome his foes. then you bring superman in...uhhh batman now looks kinda shit?
>>224085338expanded lore, the other psychicsits actually what i hoped for, the added lore with the whole illuminati psychics/witches is way more interesting as a concept than "girl gets buillied and freaks out" story
Carrie needs to to have a good fate in the end, she deserves itI do feel like it's going to be quite a task to make the next two seasons feel connected since you know, almost the entire cast died I really hope they don't go full super hero shit
>"I'm putting together a team"
>>224085338carrie will make out with the short haired bull dyke, maybe finger bang each other, and they kill the other witch bitches, then they will dance and dance and dance
>>224085338what exactly is going on with all the witch bitch shows and movies?do women really love witchcraft stories? do they jerk off to the past witches being beheaded and burned at the stake, the fuck is going on?my guess it's a proxy for feminism
>>224089535Witches are for women what knights/samurai are for men
>>224089535>what is going on nowbro were you alive in the early 2000s, this isn't new
>>224085338tummy
>>224085338their attempt the hide the shape of her thigh just makes it look like she has a huge futa cockwhen censorship BACKFIRES
It'll be like Stranger Things Season 2, Episode 7: The Lost Sister, except for the whole season.
>>224085338Same as always? They´ll just take the plot on its own original direction and have it run for like five seasons.
>>224089535witches are great, i love witches
>>224089535>my guess it's a proxy for feminismI think that's what it's always been, and it isn't exactly subtle
>>224085338She's going to meet all the other women who have the Shine and women are always persecuted because they're so powerful
>>224085338Carrie 2: The Carriening
Idk. Probably going to adapt the dark tower and add Carrie to it or something.
>>224085338The Rage: Carrie 2They'll probably introduce the plotline from Firestarter and Tommyknockers.
>>224088678Already an improvement
>>224086125Her name was Christine and she was crushed to death in a car. I'll let you figure out how those pieces fit together.
>>224089095>way more interestingIt's really not. The more human elements of this story is why it still resonates with people. Why this particular story keeps getting retold. Bullies are a very real thing we all experience in life (in one way or another) This is the draw for normal people.Lore is only worth something when it's pre-established, not when it's retoactively square pegged into a round hole.Fuck Cockroach Jason and everyone who creams over late stage capitalism disguised as dogshit worldbuilding.>>224091705You're a goober. Chris always dies in a car. Christine was a very particular car with a particular attitude.
>>224091088literally what they are doing.
cary get ipad
>>224085338S02 is Firestarter.
>>224092573What she's going to hold Randall Flagg in a rear naked chokehold?
>>224085460But the witches are bad people, surely Carrie will try to leave them
King saw how successful Stranger Things was and it ripped off all his shit. Carrrie meets Fireststarter meets The Mist with the military opening a fucking void meets IT. So naturally he wants in on it
>>224085460Imagine if they got Drew Barrymore back for a cameo tho. Carrie will return in Avengers: Doomsday.
I didnt see it talked a lot but I found it funny hat the show takes the usual feminist talking point of>for centuries men have oppressed free thinking women by accusing them of being witches And turned it into>for centuries men have oppressed women by not acknowledging that they have powers and accusing them of fraud
>>224093781And the woman telling her oppression vignettes at the beginning of each episode is revealed to be the leader of the feminist witch death cult. Season 2 could be pretty kino if Flanagan commits to them being psycho villains and doesn't pull some bullshit "They only mass murder people because of trauma :(((" storyline where the chud parents trying to kill them are the REAL villains.
could have had a book-accurate Carrie but she's already on Welcome to Derry
>>224094284Nobody wants a butter hog Carrie and is why she’s always been cute
>>224094284I'm fine with Carrie being a perfect victim as it makes the turn more shocking, but they didnt commit to the bot fully probably because they couldnt find a way to write her back to "good protag" again
>>224094349They lost the plot.
>>224094349Mini series which was going be a series handled it fine. Carrie zones out and goes all Dark Phoenix at the prom and doesn’t snap out of it until she gets into the tub in her dress. Basically like book she doesn’t have control of her powers and it’s all tied to her emotions. I’d imagine had continued as a series she’d leaned to control her powers
>AU for Carrie where shining is considered a normal part of the world and has shaped it>For the 3rd time she is still not a fat girlHonestly throw the whole shit away, nigga, I don’t care how cool your concept for managing to make a tiny novel fit a television series is and inventive while fitting in universe if you are the 3rd group of Hollywood retards to be incapable of adapting Carrie, yet again, with yet another conventionally attractive actress instead of an honest to god femcel.
>>224094565You obviously didn’t read the book. Carrie was attractive she just had acne and greasy hair and was slightly overweight because of neglect
>>224089573Not even bro, witches are what wise guys and mafiosos are to us in terms of quotability and replicable behavior. It’s fun to get dressed up nice with a group of your friends and act tough.
>>224094595>Just had acneShe has bacne and ass zits, bro, and if you talk to any teenager, that shit is a fate worse than death, this is what THE TEXT says, fuck judging the shit by its cover, you fucking larper. It describes her similarly to an OX.
>>224085338>there are people who unironically what this shitholy fuck
>>224094664>Oh My God did you watch a Stephen King adaptation in October, LAWD HAF MERCY!!!!!Yeah, I watched Goosebumps and some TftC, too.
>>224094284How can one girl be so perfect for every role?
>>224094664They're the same folks who enjoy cape-slop. Is it really that surprising?
>>224085338They introduce her sister.
>>224094706>Namefag larping as if they are some patrician that sits atop the ivory tower above everyone both online and in meatspaceGaptoothed prison bitch activities
The last episode was fucking garbage just to justify a second season.
>>224094746You must be one of those cape-slop consumers I spoke of. I'd say you should kill yourself, but at least we both know you won't procreate so I'll take comfort in that.
how do we feel about the theory that she is Flagg's daughter?>Mama had battled The Black Man and vanquished him. Carrie had seen it happen in a dream. Mama had driven him from the front door with a broom and The Black Man had fled up the street in the night. His cloven feet striking red sparks on the cement. Her mother had torn that something out of herself and was pure.
>>224094923Margaret is pretty fucking explicit about her first and only time having sex.
>>224094879I could literally be a brown tranny and if I never admitted it, it would still put me leagues above a non-coded namefag. Your opinion is irrelevant to myself and everyone here and your words are not so serious that they need to be tracked so diligently you fucking toad nigga.
>>224095026This is an 18+ board, incel. Why don't you take your shit taste elsewhere.
>>224094963the book explicitly states she had a miscarriage before she was married, so no that was not her only time
>>224085363They can do belly inflation in the third season, I guess
>>224095159I mean during her marriage.She had sex with her husband once, and that was it, he died soon after.
>>224095133>He doesn’t like teenage drama slopIt is an artform in of itself and it takes a real critic to separate your Gossip Girls from your Euphorias, if you get me, it’s like panning for gold, just like with games, have you ever even tried the Nancy Drew games? Young girls often have great novels written for or about them, and it’s a whole world that for like the past 30 years of my life I really didn’t touch until having a daughter.
>>224095298The teenage drama stuff in this are its strengths. Anyone watching it for the worldbuilding/lore (a literal after thought in this instance) would be better off waiting for the HBO Potter series or better yet, revisiting the originals.
>>224085338Anyone else think that was her erection rather than her knee?I've been hanging around you degenerates too long.
>>224094725I never watched this
>>224085338Now they can tell the real story... of how slavery and systemic racism caused those two white girls to start feuding.
making Sue brown is funny because in the book she's constantly thinking about how she's probably going to end up in an all-white part of town and keep the n*ggers out just like her parents
