so...does nostromo by joesph conrad have ANYTHING to do with the Alien movies at all?

― Roberto Spiralli, Monday, 16 July 2012 13:31 (thirteen years ago)

There's a pred ship on p. 94 iirc

― Marco YOLO (Phil D.), Monday, 16 July 2012 13:32 (thirteen years ago)

cd argue that first couple of Alien flicks have themes of colonial politics which is Nostromo's central theme.

cd argue Ridley Scott is a cock, ymmv

― Tartar Mouantcheoux (Noodle Vague), Monday, 16 July 2012 13:33 (thirteen years ago)

i mean obviously Conrad is not as literary as, say, Frank Miller but the lad was a tryer considering he wsn't writing in his first language

also iirc - and i may not be r-ing c - Nostromo features a big corrupt hypercapitalist corporation as in Alien and its sequels. tho obv the novel is critiquing capitalism not just running thru lamoid SF truisms

― Tartar Mouantcheoux (Noodle Vague), Monday, 16 July 2012 13:43 (thirteen years ago)

let's remember that this all started because someone had the gall to refer to a comic book as a "book" for short, not because of any claims of literary merit

― lag∞n, Monday, 16 July 2012 13:55 (thirteen years ago)

whiney will take anything a dog in glasses tells him and try to pass it off as his own opinion

― Roberto Spiralli, Monday, 16 July 2012 14:01 (thirteen years ago)

same could be said about graphic novel haters too. it's not like they're condemning comix bc they've got spinoza in their back pocket. they're huffing whatever subpar franzen creative writing school crap NYT is shoveling this week.

― Mordy, Monday, 16 July 2012 14:03 (thirteen years ago)

can't believe nv is polluting this of all threads when ppl want to post wryly poignant anecdotes abt the time someone's grade teacher mistook a dinosaur for a unicorn and said dinosaurs aren't real (cuz they were a xtian fundie and fat and stupid)

― nakhchivan, Monday, 16 July 2012 14:10 (thirteen years ago)

subpar franzen is tautological iirc

― Tartar Mouantcheoux (Noodle Vague), Monday, 16 July 2012 14:12 (thirteen years ago)

haven't actually read him (too busy reading comix) but Harbach surely?

― Mordy, Monday, 16 July 2012 14:16 (thirteen years ago)

dunno dude i only read Spinoza

chabon wouldve been best for yr middlebrow literary stand in cause hes really into comics <<<literary style thinking

― lag∞n, Monday, 16 July 2012 14:20 (thirteen years ago)

yeah, i like chabon tho

― Mordy, Monday, 16 July 2012 14:21 (thirteen years ago)

even better! continued literary style thinking

― lag∞n, Monday, 16 July 2012 14:22 (thirteen years ago)

if a person does the "comic books aren't books schtick" I'm willing to bet ten dollars that that person's reading list for the last year includes exactly no heavy lifting at all

arent comic book literally books, they have pages and covers and the word book is even right there in the name

― lag∞n, Monday, 16 July 2012 14:23 (thirteen years ago)
