I only read about the series i don't watch tv adaptations as a rule, also i just refreshed /lit/ it is no longer work safe blue...

>>2085531
don't worry op, this is just our resident racist. He's harmless as long as you look him in the eye.

>>2085535
Which part of my post was factually incorrect?

I couldn't read the latest dresden files book, it was pretty shitty, maybe my tastes have improved i'm reading 60's genre sci-fi now.

>>2085531
Did you read the book? Karen's new partner is a black man also there are other instants where there are black people in the book. example Harry's child mother Suzan is black

>>2085531
Are you the same guy in >>2085427 who defends libertarianism via racisms?

Cause if so you should be less transparent.

>>2085532
>also i just refreshed /lit/ it is no longer work safe blue.
Thank the local /new/ migrants like >>2085531 for that

>>2085540
Being that I live in Chicago as a white man, I'd point out that it's basically the same racial makeup as any other city. Which is interesting, since urban areas tend to be the most wealthy and well-educated places in the US.

>>2085531
>>2085540
Racist just ruins everyone's fun.

Can i get a reply that is actually about the series vs the book? Does the series do the book justice?

>>2085566
Apparently not, due to the upsetting degree race diversity or something.

I've never seen it, but that is the gist I get from this thread.

>>2085570
do you think before you post, or is there a muscle in your cerebellum that twitches before you can analyze what you're actually saying?

>>2085573
I think before, but never during posting. I very rarely think afterwards.

I make a lot of mistakes. I am sorry.

I hope you're not too upset.

The two series are completely different.

The only real similarities are the character names, the location, and the fact that the main character is a wizard (albeit a pretty terrible one in the show).

On the other hand, the incredibly bad special effects do make for a few good laughs.

> i can't even stomach the first episode its so corny...

that's how I felt reading the books, so I guess it's a good adaptation?

>>2085585
I'M SO MAD, FUCK. YOU FUCKING UPSET ME. GODDAMN IT I'M FUCKING WEEPING, FUCK YOU MAN, FUCK YOU

>>2085586
So should i watch it or delete all 12.. i don't know if i can sit through all 12... the first episode was that bad, that corny... i mean
Kid: "Will its really work?"
Harry: *smile* *whisper* "You see this bracelet kid? It saved my life more times than i can count."
That is the MOST horrible acting i have ever seen in my life and i watched the Percy Jackson movie and The Last Airbender movie.

>>2085597
Are you mad?
Not mad mad, mad crazy?

>>2085597
You may blow your nose on my sleeve if this calms you.

I didn't mean for this at all.

>>2085600

Well if you want a good series, then no, don't watch it. I can't really say that it's "all downhill from there," since it starts at such a low point, but it certainly doesn't improve.

It is funny though. In a B-movie kind of way.

>>2085629
>>>/tv/

>>2085542

>example Harry's child mother Suzan is black
WHAT?

>>2085550
Factually incorrect
>since urban areas tend to be the most wealthy and well-educated places in the US.
lol Not at all.
"urban" is a euphemism for black.
Republican voters are more intelligent, richer, and better educated.
It's democrats who rely on the big hordes of subhumans to vote for their socialist garbage.

>>2085639
Nice sage but seeing that /lit/ made me aware of the book i would rather have its opinion on whether or not to watch it out.

>>2085701
She was always described as dark skin or carmel.

>>2085701
I'm black, and probably a lot better educated that you will ever be.

>>2085573
>>2085573
>a muscle in your cerebellum

No.

Just, no. Stop, seriously. Like really. fucking don't post when you don't know what you are talking about. Reported.

>>2086226
.... These racist pigs are disgusting

>>2086232
In my opinion, the shit colored skin and the ape shaped face of the negro is the most disgusting.

What is disgusting about being a rational minded sane person who recognizes the importance of kin and race?

>>2086245
So white ppl are superior? They invented everything that we use today? They don't commit crimes? If every black person was gone all crime would end? There wouldn't be any killing? No more stealing?

>>2086245
Absolutely everything. Explaining it to you would be a waste of effort.

You're clearly broken in some major, irreparable way.

I'd feel bad for you if I wasn't so repulsed.

>>2086306
You are the broken one. Every other race and normal person shares my beliefs to one extent or another.
They just have this idea that it's "wrong" to say it outloud.

This is an anonymous image board, you can say the truth here with little fear, unlike at a workplace or public forum.

>>2086312
I'm aware that we are anonymous. There is no fear of judgement restricting what I post. I sincerely believe that the opinions that you have been posting are the products of a diseased, uneducated mind and that you should take them elsewhere.

>>2086178
Thats because she is latino

>>2086340
I bet he is is an hillbilly redneck anon he sexes his sister and ain't afraid of nothing.
All that hate got passed down through his family, what do you expect from uneducated hicks? It astonishes me that he can use the internet and reason.

>>2086351
Meh i got the audiobook and everytime i "read it" she was described as a light skin african american female in my mind... all the books i thought she black....

>>2086468
>ad hominem is a valid argument because i have nothing else to say.

>>2086483
there's not really much to say when your only contribution to the discussion is something that amounts to "i can't believe the whiteman has been duped into believing this" and "wake up white man". you sound like a raving moron and you are being treated accordingly. I bet the reason you stay in these threads and post garbage is because this is the only way someone will listen to you. IRL you're ignored. Here at least people respond to you, even if you don't know how to respond back.

>>2086476
Dude, her name's Rodriguez.

>>2086489
That's ad hominem again.

>>2086514
Make an argument that isn't completely illogical and you might get a legitimate response.

>>2086514
Actually that's not an ad hominem, it's an attack on what you are saying not you as a person. Jesus you are fucking DUMB!

(Calling you dumb could be called ad hominem me and you were having an argument, but we are not. I'm just calling you out for being wrong and then insulting you.)

Guys did Harry kill that snake Rudolf? Did he met his end, shit don't finish nicely for scum rats.

>>2086557
This is why i love /lit/ you use grammar and logic to shame someone instead of "your momma" or some other tripe remark.

so wait, does /lit/ have a favourable opinion of the Dresden Files?

>>2087347
It does, albeit they hide and deny it.
They are the ones who recommended it to me and the book is really good, a nice fantasy to rattle the brain.

>>2087318
Yes he did kill Rudolf it was a horrible death, he and Karen also did the nasty finally and we found out that Lash(the fallen angel) was still in his mind although Harry did nor Bob the skull saw it

>>2087318
I thought the snake was named the basilisk, yes harry killed it although he had help and the snake was never a rat.

>>2087347
/lit/ is filled with a bunch of back stabbing,deluded self righteous hypocrites, they will tell you something is bad and you should kill yourself for reading it. On their way home they will stop by the book store, buy the book and enjoy themselves reading it while denying that the book or the author exists.

>>2087390
You best be trolling

Why is /lit/ filled with so many racist?
I thought education and enlightenment would break those barriers... could i be wrong?

>>2087537
Cause that is the right thing to do.

Why was this thread allowed to reach so long? Op got his answer, delete this unrelated filth.

>>2087584
Cause we want to

>>2087584
>OP talks about a book
>book is well liked on /lit/ althought people deny
>unrelated
..... are you serious?

>>2087592
He asked about a show that is not /lit/ realted

>>2087596
Based on a book of course it is related.

>>2087596
>realted.....
Please learn to spell then come back.

The tv series sucks, but I really like the books.

Anyone know about a similar series worth checking out?

>>2087818

The Devil You Know by Mike Carey, plus sequels. He also writes Hellblazer and his main character is a fairly obvious John Constantine rip-off, but they're pretty good reads.

>>2087537
Education and enlightenment = Self-delusion?

Lets talk about racism.

http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/racism
>the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics, abilities, or qualities specific to that race
Just in terms of phenotypes, this is blatantly obvious to anyone with any experience in the real world.
Notice how liberals themselves admit/brag about how blacks are better athletes, yet that's not racist? I thought race doesn't exist...

>especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races:
Especially so? This is leftist insinuation and connotation, this may be what they imply when using the word, but it doesn't mean the word actually means that!
Funny, when you compare one ability of a race to another, one comes out superior, better. Whites are more intelligent then blacks, etc.

I really don't understand the left wing mindset, i think it's insanity really.

>>2087857

oh god, the stormfront troll is back

">>2087829"

Thanks! Will check it out.

>>2087857
Let's talk about literature.

What was the last book you read?

>>2087885
the falcons of narabedla

>>2087901
that's cool, what did you learn from it?

>>2087904
you don't learn from books.

>>2087909
That's an extraordinary statement. Do you have extraordinary evidence to support that?

>>2087914
this is a dresden files thread. What did you learn from dresden files?

>>2087927
Just because this thread's OP is about Dresden Files does not mean I'm talking about Dresden Files. I'm talking about reading in general.

To home in on Dresden Files as the be-all and end-all of reading is logically unsupportable.

Faggot.

>>2087933
You are saying you learn from fiction books.
And i am asking you, what did you learn from the dresden files novels?

Since you learned nothing and they were worthless and that people read for entertainment.
Evidently, you don't learn from books.

>>2087943

No, you're being dense. This is not about the Dresden Files. This is about reading. Whether I learned something from DF is irrelevant, because it's one of 10,000,000 books available to me.

That's called a strawman argument. Prove that reading IN GENERAL is not educational. We're all waiting.

>>2087953
Reading of FICTION is not educational.

>>2087961
Prove it.

>>2087966
How can i prove a negative?
You are the one who has to prove that the fictional ramblings of mostly left leaning authors is education or valuable.

>>2087981
Fiction is an experience. Experiences make you smarter. Ergo, fiction makes you smarter.

>>2087985
Pretty sure that's a classic logical fallacy.

>>2088103
Prove it.

Also don't bump hour-old shit threads please
