After loving Possession (the novel) with a love that is more than love, I tentatively looked up Possession (the film), only to find that they cast Gwyneth Paltrow and Aaron Eckhart as Maud and Roland???? Which I have to assume means the directors either did not read or did not like the book. I have thus taken it upon myself to recast it. Anybody who fancies having a go at doing it again - properly this time - and has a TARDIS so that they can hire these actors at these stages of their careers, please heed my wisdom. I also have a lot of opinions about the tertiary characters but they would not fit in the post.

Reto de Lectura Rory Gilmore
Sé que llego tarde a este reto de lectura pero nunca me había animado a tomarlo, lo descubrí hace años no recuerdo donde y ahora que me topé con el de nuevo en  BlackWhite Read Books y queria intentarlo.
Gilmore Girls fue una gran parte de mi adolescencia vi todos los capítulos más de una vez y me identificaba con Rory, su amor por la lectura y su vida cotidiana, es una serie que siempre vivirá en mi corazón y es más que una serie para mí, me enseño muchas cosas y me ayudo con muchas más.
El reto de lectura consiste en leer todos los libros que Rory leyó a lo largo de la serie, los cuales son muchos, entre ellos existen muchos clásicos como Alicia en el País de las Maravillas y El Diario de Anna Frank, la mayoría de libros en esta lista no están siquiera en mi lista TBR la cual es otra de las razones por las que quiero intentarlo, la lista consiste de 339 libros por lo que no me pondré propósitos irreales como leerlos todos durante este año (2016), en dos años o en cinco, simplemente me propondré terminar esta lista algún día y divertirme con ella.
Marcare mi progreso en este post y quizá haga una reseña de ellos, los mencione en mis libros del mes o en GoodReads pero primordialmente será aquí.

desiree-uk replied to your post “The Wolff Shopping Plaza is nearing completion! The bakery is on the...”
Wow! �� This looks amazing! Did you build this?
Thank you so much! Yes, I started off modeling it after the Bakery Lot from the EA TS3 Store, although overall I ended up changing it up quite a bit. Morgana will be giving a ‘tour’ of the interior soon. :-D
I need to porter up my sims and plop them in a new saved game so not sure when I can get to it. Hopefully sometime this week!

Editor's Choice: Top 10 Horror Films of 2017 Part II - @JonOnAString
New Post has been published on https://nofspodcast.com/horror-2017-top-ten-part-2/
Editor's Choice: Top 10 Horror Films of 2017 Part II - @JonOnAString
2017 was an incredible year for horror fans. Not only did we see several Stephen King adaptations (including the block busting IT), horror has once again found itself with strong representation going into awards season. There is no shortage of supply for Top 10 lists this time of year, but we’ve taken it upon ourselves to avoid all hype and critical reception in our own Best of 2017. Controversial opinions abound in the list below!
Join us as we say goodbye to 2017, in Part II with editor JonOnAString‘s favorite horror and genre films of the year. You can also read KimmiKillZombie‘s Top 10 list HERE. We’ve a few surprises up our sleeves with added underdogs, lesser known picks, some surprising omissions – and a few festival finds, including films from; The Overlook Film Festival, Fantasia Festival, Fantastic Fest, and TIFF!
Hear our full thoughts on each of the films below on this week’s episode of the Nightmare on Film Street Podcast. Also well, Kim and Jon keep the conversation going, discussing some of the more controversial omissions from this year’s list in their Honorable Mentions of 2017, available to our Patreon supporters.
Without further ado:
JonOnAString’s Top 10 Films of 2017
  #10 – Super Dark Times
Director: Kevin Phillips Writer: Ben Collins, Luke Piotrowski Cast: Owen Campbell, Charlie Tahan, Elizabeth Cappuccino
Plot: Teenagers Zach and Josh have been best friends their whole lives, but when a gruesome accident leads to a cover-up, the secret drives a wedge between them and propels them down a rabbit hole of escalating paranoia and violence.
Read Nightmare on Film Street’s full review of Super Dark Times
#9 Le Manoir
Director: Tony T. Datis Writer: Bernardo Barilli, Dominique Gauriaud, Marc Jarousseau, Jurij Prette Cast: Marc Jarousseau, Nathalie Odzierejko, Lud
Plot: A band of students comes to celebrate the New Year in an old manor house isolated from everything. But soon after their arrival, strange events disrupt the atmosphere, before the party turns squarely to the nightmare.
  #8 – Get Out
Director: Jordan Peele Writer: Jordan Peele Cast: Daniel Kaluuya, Allison Williams, Bradley Whitford
Plot: It’s time for a young African-American to meet with his white girlfriend’s parents for a weekend in their secluded estate in the woods, but before long, the friendly and polite ambiance will give way to a nightmare.
  #7 – November
Director: Rainer Sarnet Writer: Andrus Kivirähk, Rainer Sarnet Cast: Rea Lest, Jörgen Liik, Arvo Kukumägi
Plot: Set in a pagan Estonian village where werewolves, the plague, and spirits roam. The villagers’ main problem is how to survive the cold, dark winter. And, to that aim, nothing is taboo. People steal from each other, from their German manor lords, and from spirits, the devil, and Christ. To guard their souls, they’ll give them away to thieving creatures made of wood and metal called kratts, who help their masters by stealing more. The pragmatic farmers are faced with a question: is the life that they’ve won through so much toil worth anything, if it lacks a soul?
  #6 – The Devil’s Candy
Director: Sean Byrne Writer: Sean Byrne Cast: Ethan Embry, Shiri Appleby, Pruitt Taylor Vince
Plot: A struggling painter is possessed by satanic forces after he and his young family move into their dream home in rural Texas, in this creepy haunted-house tale.
  #5 – Creep 2
Director: Patrick Brice Writer: Patrick Brice, Mark Duplass Cast: Karan Soni, Mark Duplass, Desiree Akhavan
Plot: A video artist looking for work drives to a remote house in the forest to meet a man claiming to be a serial killer. But after agreeing to spend the day with him, she soon realizes that she made a deadly mistake.
Read Nightmare on Film Street’s full review of Creep 2

Director: David Bruckner Writer: Joe Barton, Adam Nevill Cast: Rafe Spall, Robert James-Collier, Arsher Ali
Plot: A group of college friends reunite for a trip to the forest, but encounter a menacing presence in the woods that’s stalking them.
Read Nightmare on Film Street’s full review of The Ritual 
  #3 – Lowlife
Director: Ryan Prows Writer: Tim Cairo, Jake Gibson, Shaye Ogbonna, Ryan Prows, Maxwell Michael Towson Cast: Nicki Micheaux, Ricardo Adam Zarate, Jon Oswald
Plot: The sordid lives of an addict, an ex-con, and a luchador collide when an organ harvesting caper goes very, very wrong.
Read Nightmare on Film Street’s full review of Lowlife
#2 – Hounds of Love
Director: Ben Young Writer: Ben Young Cast: Emma Booth, Ashleigh Cummings, Stephen Curry
Plot: Vicki Maloney is randomly abducted from a suburban street by a disturbed couple. As she observes the dynamic between her captors she quickly realises she must drive a wedge between them if she is to survive.
  #1.5 – My Friend Dahmer
Director: Marc Meyers Writer: Marc Meyers, Derf Backderf Cast: Ross Lynch, Alex Wolff, Anne Heche
Plot: You only think you know this story. In 1991, Jeffrey Dahmer—the most notorious serial killer since Jack the Ripper—seared himself into the American consciousness. To the public, Dahmer was a monster who committed unthinkable atrocities. To Derf Backderf, “Jeff” was a much more complex figure: a high school friend with whom he had shared classrooms, hallways, and car rides.
Read Nightmare on Film Street‘s full review of My Friend Dahmer
    #1 – The Shape of Water
Director: Guillermo Del Toro Writer: Guillermo Del Toro, Vanessa Taylor Cast: Sally Hawkins, Michael Shannon, Richard Jenkins
Plot: An otherworldly fable set against the backdrop of Cold War era America circa 1962. In the hidden high-security government laboratory where she works, lonely Elisa is trapped in a life of isolation.
