    :wtf:

    It never left. It's just that you need to sift through all the remakes/sequels/prequels/spinoffs to find the odd thing that's actually original.

    Turkey’s Canadian. By law they have to stick unnecessary vowels in words from time to time. I don’t really understand how it works but if they don’t do it they get dipped in maple syrup and thrown to carnivorous beavers. Terrible way to die.

    In March he won the Best Actor Academy Award for playing a morbidly obese man, so both heavy and dramatic. :ramen:

    I'm going to give UA a pass on this one because of the Fraser River and Fraser River Valley in British Columbia.

    Turkey, you should have gone with 'Frasear' :ramen:

    Nah. Frasær, or Frasere, or Fraseur, would have been the only acceptable substitutions for a Canadian.

    Wikipedia says it's based on a book from 2017. Are book adaptations still "originality?" :chris:

    It’s not a sequel, prequel, remake or offshoot of an existing franchise. Obviously a movie can be based off of a book and have absolutely little in common with the book or it could be a faithful adaptation so yeah it’s not 100% original, but close enough. There aren’t many mainstream directors left that do 100% original movies.
