Just found out that Brian Lumley died a few weeks back.  Really dug his Crow/ De Marigny mythos books.

I remember reading around two decades ago (I think it was from hplovecraft.com) that Lovecraft likely disliked things like movies and radio shows, and with that would have been against other media versions of his works, including games. Later, he became a socialist, even to the point of implicitly disowning his works.

I am so excited! Would we want this to be the start of a Lovecraft franchise, or a stand alone film?

Quote from: Thatguy2068 on Nov 12, 2023, 07:10:24 AMShould Cthulhu be fleshy or biomechanical?

Words like 'flabby' and 'bloated corpulence' are used to describe Cthulhu (both in art form and the real deal), as well as "pursuing jelly" and "bursting as of an exploding bladder". It's implying fleshy. The eyeless skinny one looks pretty cool though,
You're right and there was even a drawing that lovecraft did of Cthulhu but idk if that info real or not



Also separated from this conversation I realize that lovecraft horror is if we had the POV of that summer ant

I'm gonna be honest I think skinny Cthulhu is much better than either the muscular or chubby Cthulhu

Long skinny limbs and lumpen, flabby body/head is best.

Quote from: ralfy on Nov 02, 2023, 05:45:44 AMI think the "horror" in cosmic horror lies in the idea that the universe is meaningless.

Won't disagree with you on that.
Reminds me of one point made, that Lovecraft would have hated what they did with making movies, comic books, video and board games, etc., of his works.
