    “You killed my child.”

    “No, I killed someone else’s kid, they just had your kid’s name.”

    “So we agree you killed a child?”

    Also, people that say that Foundation was unfilmable are just parroting what others have said. If it had been done by someone with any talent, it would have been just fine. Instead they gave it to a milquetoast superhero writer/director. Dune is a great example of a property that really should only work as a book, but it’s directed by someone who gives a shit and has vision.

      Right? If they felt that it was unfilmable, then they shouldn’t have filmed it, and instead left it for someone who had the vision to accomplish what they could not.
