60 of 116 · most liked firstI personally micro-banned Harry Potter books due to the author's self-stated prejudices. Read them all but won't recommend. Read everything else but "The Giver". Gonna get right on that. Oh, technically, only seen the "Kite Runner" movie.

unlabelledView post →listen to this episode for my (related!) hot takes on the movie Grease and the YA novel The Giver
unlabelledView post →when I say rewatch The Giver (2014) & consider how artists give us so much physical meaning to the intangible moments of our lives, I mean the 1989 tour intro evokes the Miramax intro which is both the company that produced the film & the one founded by Harvey Weinstein…who attended the album launch
unlabelledView post →Wait why was the end of the movie The Giver with Rhea Perlman
unlabelledView post →From Letterboxd reviews of The Giver (a film I have not seen, though I have read the book): "I would rather join Odysseus on his fucking Odyssey than watch this movie again." And "Alexander Skarsgard looked so good in this movie, I felt like a Victorian seeing an ankle." I love Letterboxd.
unlabelledView post →Just remembering Alexander Skarsgard was in the film 'The Giver' with Taylor and now he's wicker.. like a gift basket

unlabelledView post →Digging into 8/15 on the TNTL to see what I can find and I have some good stuff. 8/15 is 1/16 TNTL and 8/15 TNTL is either 3/14 or 3/15 depending on what year. 8/15 was the day the Giver released and 3/14 was the day the Eras tour movie released. More in 🧵
unlabelledView post →Unused alternate cover for a short, promotional comic I drew for the release of the movie 'The Giver', back in 2014. You could pick up the comic for free after the movie's SDCC panel that year, but the coolest part was Jeff Bridges sharing it on his own website.
unlabelledView post →Im telling you. Im like the Giver but my only memory i hold as a sacrifice for mankind is this movie
unlabelledView post →Unused promo art to go along with a short promo comic I was commissioned to help create for the 2014 Jeff Bridges & Meryl Streep (and others) movie 'The Giver'. Still a little bummed it wasn't used, because I felt like I did some pretty solid design work here.
unlabelledView post →A bunch of quote posters have compared this to an inverse of Pleasantville. This actually reminds me of The Giver (the book, not the movie). We are living in such a dystopian landscape of violently enforced sameness and hierarchy, we can't even enjoy color on our snack bags anymore.
unlabelledView post →Granted I was in a bad mood already when I went to see The Giver (2014), but it didnt help that the movie sucked
unlabelledView post →This is so sad and true and reminds me of that dystopian film where Jeff Bridges is this ‘ancient one’ who has physical books in his house and is weird and mysterious to everyone else. Was it The Giver? #booksky #filmsky
unlabelledView post →Just listened to a book review of The Giver, and I am 99% sure the reviewer actually just watched the bad teen dystopia movie and pretended they read the book??

unlabelledView post →But also, I do not know??? I could blame it on living in D.C. but that is not it. I have met a ridiculous number of celebs and it leads to embarrassing things where I want to do something like explain why I was inclined to like The Giver movie adaptation but it involves name dropping Lois Lowry.
unlabelledView post →(Great Expectations.) You have to make sure the movie didn't deviate too far - The Giver may have intentionally done that partly for this reason - but I'm sure it's been going on since the VCR was invented.
unlabelledView post →low key I always forget Taylor is in The Giver movie
unlabelledView post →sometimes I remember how they adapted elementary school required reading banger The Giver into a movie but it was the mid-2010s so they had to beat it into a Hunger Games YA bandwagon shape when a faithful adaptation would be so good
unlabelledView post →🤣🤣🤣 that was absolutely wonderful and she has really grown that resume😭😂😂 she's also an actress!😅 Valentine's day, Hannah Montana movie, Amsterdam, CATS, The Giver, and voice acted The Lorax!!
unlabelledView post →Watching The Giver. One of those movie Hollywood made because Hunger Games was successful. Not as good as the book but it still interesting #filmsky #thegiver
unlabelledView post →My daughter got ready for school so fast, I was confused. Turns out she wanted to finish reading her book. She’s reading “The Giver” 🥺🥺 I can’t wait to watch the movie with her.
unlabelledView post →Introduce yourself with: One book 📚 - The Giver by Lois Lowry One movie 🎥 - The Lord of The Rings The Two Towers (Extended edition) One album 💿 - Folklore by Taylor Swift One TV show - Parks & Recreation
unlabelledView post →If you ask me, the less said about the 2014 film adaption of The Giver, the better. A cynical piece of cinema that watered down a pretty thought-provoking YA novel into generic dystopian drivel, all just to cash in on the popularity of The Hunger Games.
unlabelledView post →Did yall read The Giver? That was my shit. They RUINED the movie 🙄
unlabelledView post →the ideal adaptation of The Giver would be an artsy fartsy abstract animated movie btw
unlabelledView post →Yes, all I have to do is remember the montage they used in the Giver movie and I remember how resilient, cooperative, loving, determined, and accomplished we can be. I'll push for a humanity that lives up to that, even when the opposition is more cruel than an asteroid.
unlabelledView post →I show it to my students after we finish reading The Giver. It's a nearly-perfect film.
unlabelledView post →Introduce yourself with: One book 📚 — The Giver - Lois Lowry One movie 🎥 — Beauty and the Beast (1991) One album 💿 — American Idiot - Green Day One TV show 📺 — The Exorcist (RIP)
unlabelledView post →(Do not under any circumstances watch the movie version of The Giver. The cast will make you think it can’t be that bad. It is.)
unlabelledView post →Hello! TTRPG: Outbreak: Undead Book: The Giver, Lois Lowry Board game: Dominion Movie: A League of Their Own TV show: Lost Girl Bonus- Comic: Ghost in the Shell Video Game: Link's Awakening
unlabelledView post →Makes me think of how I almost didn’t go see The Giver when the movie came out even though I love the book because the trailer made it look atrocious, like a completely different story. I only did go see it because someone I trusted had seen it and said it was good, the preview was misleading.
unlabelledView post →It's times like these where I realize I NEED to read more physical books 😭 As for my favorite book though, I have to say The Giver by Lois Lowry. I have fond memories of both the novel and its film adaptation. If you're interested in dystopian novels, I recommend giving it a read if you haven't!
unlabelledView post →One particularly notable example: The film adaptation of The Giver that was released in 2018 or so was incredibly faithful to the book. The marketing made it look like yet another dime-a-dozen young adult dystopia action movie. (And also gave away one of the major twists)
unlabelledView post →It seems like their YA adaptation library was a priority, like The Hungy James obviously and Divergent I guess?? But even flops like Ender's Game and The Giver came over. anyways my little pony the movie (2017) made the jump and isn't that what really matters
unlabelledView post →I'm about to re-read The Giver! I've been meaning to for a long time but something in me said I should do it now. I haven't seen the movie though, I think because I'm afraid it will mess with my memory/imagination of the book
unlabelledView post →Save for The Giver of course and that movie sucked massive floppy cock compared to the books (yes there were multiple and I named myself partially after a character in the second book)
unlabelledView post →The Giver Little known film but I think about it often.
unlabelledView post →The only correct answer is The Giver. (which by the way NEVER had a movie, they NEVER MADE A MOVIE OUT OF THE GIVER and you can't tell me they did.)
unlabelledView post →Best film, Kingsmen Golden Circle or Iron Man. Best role, The Giver.
unlabelledView post →The kid is reading "The Giver," so we watched the move "The Giver" last night. Um. Okay, so first the book is super troubling, but that's been covered. The movie? Jesus. The whole thing looks like Scientology propoganda, I am not kidding. And why Meryl Streep. Just why.
unlabelledView post →i was wondering when they would make a movie adaptation of The Giver and it turns out that they did in 2014 and it fucking sucked balls
unlabelledView post →The Giver is one of my favorite books and every time i decide to rewatch the movie, i forget taylor is in it. which is wild considering how much i relate that book to her art. it’s a jumpscare every single time.
unlabelledView post →THE GIVER (2014) SOMEONE IN A MOVIE GROUP MENTIONED THIS MOVIE & IT SOUNDED FAMILIAR, SO CHECKED MY FILES & FOUND IT. I MAY CHECK THE PUBLIC LIBRARY FOR A DVD & WATCH IT AGAIN. #FilmSky #Movies #Cinema #TheGiver
unlabelledView post →this “The Giver” movie seems like some hetero sterilized version of a slash soulmate grayscale-to-seeing-colour fanfic.
unlabelledView post →We all need to be Jonas, Ashton and Fiona in the movie “The Giver.”
unlabelledView post →I just pictured it as the adaptation of The Giver. Like there will be this point in the film where happiness is restored and everything goes back to full color.
unlabelledView post →Does the Giver make any sense? #booksky #movie #filmsky #podcast #comedy
unlabelledView post →The Giver is a great book. The movie is ... certainly a movie. And it is definitely giving something. It's giving BAD. Join us this week as we explore this weird little moment in film history when every IP was trying to be the next Hunger Games. Listen here: BPN.fm/cheese
unlabelledView post →I read a lot of great books with a similar theme as a kid: The Giver, Animal Farm, etc., but in the 1990s (for me at least) the Wizard of Oz was an old kids movie, not even sure I knew there was a book tbh.
unlabelledView post →The awful film adaptation of "The Giver" (which I read in elementary school) would have been vastly improved had, in fact, X gon give it to ya'. They missed almost every other point of the book, so why not just miss on purpose?
unlabelledView post →Introduce yourself with: One book 📚 - The Giver One movie 🎥 - The Crow One album 💿 - Set the World on Fire- Black Veil Brides One TV show 📺 - Lucifer
unlabelledView post →The Giver, by Lois Lowry. My kid read the novel, watched the film & read graphic novel version. Might read in Swedish next. She also tore through the more recent The Wild Robot trilogy (Peter Brown). Also rec Bea Wolf (Zach Weinersmith)
unlabelledView post →The Giver is the only book-to-movie adaptation I’ll accept that makes drastic changes to the original story because Lois Lowry loved the movie.
unlabelledView post →The Giver was one I was obsessed with when I read it! Ironically the movie came out shortly after I had finished it!
unlabelledView post →Tonights movie, The Giver. Some dystopian future stuff, based on a book apparently. #FilmSky
