Can he be trusted? I just reread the book and I feel Hollywood would turn it into some allegory on racism or sexism

I have no idea what his politics are, which could be a good sign, however I must assume he's a typical hollywood wanker.

The 1954 animated film still holds up perfectly well even today.

Absolutely! I watched it again after re-reading. I even watched the 99 live action and it’s not bad. Both end on a happier not than the book.

Yes. It is a downer ending but a good lesson about being worse than the ones you overthrow. In the animated and live action movies the animals overthrow napoleon.

I would only trust him as far as visuals and acting go. Writing is a different matter.

Ever play that crappy PS3 launch title Heavenly Sword? He should have won an Oscar for his role in it.

I think I may have had that game but it’s very vague. I’ll look for it.

I'm honestly a bit suppressed that Orwell hasn't been suppressed. The guy understood and criticized socialists in a was only a socialist could. Do we tell students it's about the Nazis? Maybe people literally don't understand the work. For anyone who missed it here an actual quote from H Clintons memoir

"This is what happens in George Orwell’s classic novel Nineteen Eighty-Four, when a torturer holds up four fingers and delivers electric shocks until his prisoner sees five fingers as ordered. The goal is to make you question logic and reason and to sow mistrust toward exactly the people we need to rely on: our leaders, the press, experts who seek to guide public policy based on evidence, ourselves."

They just gaslight people into thinking that Animal Farm and 1984 are actually depicting the people who oppose leftism. Same way they decry Trump and his supporters as being responsible for our “post truth” era when rejection of objective reality is a Marxist invention.

I'm guessing it's going to be a "and here's why it's a good thing" spin on the book.

Uh, guys...
