“I am leaning back and running with it and staring at the stars and I’m eleven, I’m sixteen, I’m eighteen, I’m a newborn, I’m everyone everywhere with you without you unbound set free in limbo lost at sea.”
Beautiful, honestly.
When are we going to get a film adaptation of this?

I take it you don't read much. also you look desperate posting this thread on 2 boards.

I like to see two different boards perspectives on the same topic. Is that so wrong?
>>82487223
It is when you're trying to push shallow tripe.
I like how Lost at Sea is actual pretentious Hipster bullshit, yet people only accuse the light hearted, mass appeal SP of it.

it wasn't scott pilgram but it was ok
>>82487131
Beautiful indeed.
>>82487393
what?
>>82487131
Lost at Sea is fucking insufferable emo garbage.
And I usually unironically enjoy emo garbage.
I really liked Lost at Sea but I don't think I wanna see it as a movie

>emo garbage
Its actually hipster garbage and you interpreted it wrong.
The "I have no soul" isn't supposed to be edgy, its supposed to be mystifying in a weird "Urban Fantasy" kind of way
>>82488946
I could not disagree more.

Different strolks for different folks I suppose.
I read the book in a totally different way than you did

>it will never be the pre internet days again
Not as good as Seconds desu
Lost at Sea was probably O'Mally's worst book but it's my favourite of his because when I read it I was feeling depressed and it helped me feel less lonely at the end.

Realistically never. At the very least I hope someone creative comes along to make a short film on it. Lost At Sea is a book for a certain period in your life - and that's a different time for many people. I happened to read it after the right time window but I still enjoyed it. I think it's one of those things that you love or you don't.

It wouldn't be easy. It's a graphic novel, and a straight panel by panel would be awkward and choppy and would end up relying heavily on the internal monologue. It would feel like the Sin City movie, but without enough of the stylistic choices that made that film work.
i do this thing where i dont force myself to read a book until im ready.
ill buy it, knowing that i want it.
, but i let time tell me when to read it.
this is one of those books i still havent read because i got a page in and said
the fuck is this bullshit?
but i loved SCott Pilgrim, so there will be a day when this will be what i need to read
Wasn't the whole point of this book that the moment she stopped focusing on her own emo pain she got to see other people were actually okay and had fun?
>>82495707
Isn't that always the point
