I've been curious about the book because i saw some people talking about it, another urge after the netflix show, so went to check a little the book.

I haven't read much about chinese revolution, so i became intrigued, the cultural revolution was really like that or it was exaggerated?

i sometimes watch a guy that lives on china, he says the current standing of the people today is that thr cr was a mistake because it destroyed many historical artifacts.

well, the post became more about the cultural revolution than the scifi piece itself.

Netflix

Brother, you should just pretend it was never adapted like Cowboy Bebop and Death Note fans did.

Death Note

Don't tell me netflix version was even worse than the old Japanese one.

Dafoe was cast as Ryuk which is tbf, the best possible casting for Ryuk but everything else was just bad.

I thought the Cowboy Bebop Netflix adaption was kinda good? From what I read, I mean.

it...was not.

with the notable exception of the dude playing jet, who utterly killed it. he very obviously put a lot of effort and research into getting the role exactly right. if anything i'd just watch a supercut of his scenes and skip the rest bc it's mostly meh
