  • Meaning what, that movie adaptations are not necessary? I know that.

    The posted list put Dune in with movies that were made based purely on the success of their predecessor, which is not the case for Dune.

    Now, while the sequel wouldn’t have been made if its predecessor hadn’t been successful, the books are the driver behind making the movies.






  • A mocha pot? But then I’d still have to buy coffee beans, which are a luxury, right? Not buying a mocha pot means you don’t have to buy coffee either, thus saving even more money.

    And that could go for all luxuries, to the point that life is just working to be able to work.

    And none of this would be necessary if wages were higher overall, and there was a good social safety net.

    Tell government to tax the rich, instead of telling people to forego their pleasures.
