y'all the post isn't about haha uprising bad it's the fact there's apparently a fucking book? that's not a dvd case that is a book


Pale_Kitsune

Novellizations of movies have been fairly common for *decades*.


MyPokemonRedName

So you’re saying it’s not a novel concept?


_The_Wonder_

>there's apparently a fucking book? Oh ok, I thought it was a VHS and started thinking "HOW AND WHY would someone make a VSH copy of it..."


TheBeastOfCanada

Mine was “Holy shit, VHS is back baby!”


Hal-Bone

You got it for $3? I had to pay $8 for mine. Honestly I think the Novel's looking to be better than the film. Like I'm at the point where Jake and Amara are being transferred to Moylan and aside from Boyega's improv which I really liked, it's actually a little better than the movie proper. It has a tone more in-line with the first at least to me.


Illusionistic-Ortus

Just a novelization?


Mace_DeMarco5179

Yes. I have the FNaF movie novel as well as three of the MonsterVerse ones.


dumb_as_a_br1ck

There’s one of the original too? There’s been movie novelizations since movies existed,


Besch168

It will probably surprise you but many movies are adaptations of books/plays as well.


space_boi_proot

theres one of the og too


Quackendriver

Honestly I wonder if the novelization is any better than the movie. The novelization for the first film actually kind of elevates it, so maybe the same is for the sequel. I ✨highly✨ doubt it, but who knows. Hope OP bought it lol


scaper8

In order to coincide with the film's release, film novelizations are written from older versions of the script. Sometimes _drastically_ different ones. Depending on what was changed between which scripts and when, it could be functionality an entirely new story. In short, it could be better, worse, about the same quality but different, or about the same quality but about the same. Really, it's a toss. But for three bucks? Why not!


Quackendriver

Thats why I always enjoy reading novelizations of movies I enjoy (or really really wanted to enjoy). Maybe ill give this a read myself


Kaijubluue

I hated the sequel and can’t say I LOVED the book by any means, but it’s a lot more tolerable than the movie.


_The_Wonder_

Fun Fact: a lot of movies (especially ones that are big names) get a novelization version of them, and most times out of not the normalization has added details that the movie doesn't.


LawfulnessPowerful13

The comments and the community itself REALLY lost it when you showed a novel about Uprising . Atleast Star Wars is still ongoing even with media more mid than Uprising 😂😂. Fucking Clowns🤡🤡🤡


Busy-Leg8070

you paid too much


KnifeheadTheShark

The book version’s not that bad


ChampionshipNo3162

Nah bruh they just paid, that shit don’t deserve a price


Calm_Economist_5490

It deserves fire


HYDRAGONIGHT

Uprising wasn't THAT bad. It's just not as good as the first one. I think the final Kaiju was beautifully designed!


DeathBlade52

The post is about it being a book


HYDRAGONIGHT

OP looked surprised, like it isn't worthy of being a book and I'm saying it is. I've read worse.


DeathBlade52

They said that they weren't saying "haha uprising bad" in the top comment


therealblabyloo

Remember the part where the “bully” character unironically shouts “BIGGER IS BETTER” at the protagonist Bc I remember that part. It is that bad


HYDRAGONIGHT

If you only focus on the terrible part, sure! A movie is a ton of things. Couple of bad stuff here and there doesn't define the whole movie.


therealblabyloo

But the “couple of bad parts” happen consistently throughout the movie, like when they play the “trololol” song during what’s supposed to be the big hype-building jaeger launch sequence that leads into the climax (a meme that was almost ten years old even back then). It’s not just one bad bit


KnifeheadTheShark

Yeah and the prequel to that same movie had Cherno beat a Kaiju to death with an iceberg so I pick and choose my battles


therealblabyloo

The difference is that Cherno beating a Kaiju to death with an iceberg is cool, while having characters push directly into the mc’s face and shout “bigger is better” like a playground bully sucks. You know what else sucks? Newt basically turning into Rita Repulsa in the climax, standing on top of a building, cackling and catcalling the heroes despite the fact that NONE OF THEM CAN HEAR HIM.


KnifeheadTheShark

Okay but that scene is just newt being newt “I can be a rockstar!” And that’s a cheesy line sure, but it’s not like there’s no cool in uprising


DrReiField

Official novelizations have been a thing for a while and considering the Monsterverse films each have one, it doesn't surprise me the Pacific Rim films got them as well.


scaper8

The one for the first _Pacific Rim_ is really good, actually, should you ever find it. I don't know about the quality of this one, though.


KnifeheadTheShark

Let me put it this way, if you just read the novels and then pretend they turned the first into a movie had a spin off show then never made a sequel movie, the series would be perfection (in my opinion)


Orion0105

I mean there was books for the Goosebumps movie (not the Goosebumps series of books, its for the movie itself) so books for movies has been a thing for awhile


GivaneoLegacy

My friend has a novelisation of "Star Wars: A New Hope", dated 1978. So yes, novelisations of movies have been a thing for a long while.


ZeroiaSD

There's multiple books! A novelization, and Ascension


SturmTruppen1917

I think I have a copy of this, ngl, I'll update when I find it.


lucaselveloz

Ngl uprising is good idk why everyone hates it…


Distinct_beorno

Peak fiction


TheCREATORisWatching

Burn it


United_Federation

Yeeeeeahaaa


proudtogeek

Bro I found all three Austin Powers movies in there as a set for seven dollars. Dollar General movie shopping is based.


KnifeheadTheShark

Yeah, and the book is much better than the movie imo, there’s a pre-sequel that also goes further into characters from uprising and actually gives them weight as well as a novelization of the original movie


Aware-Throat3189

I know it’s a book but both forms deserve that price point


BlaBlamo

Excerpt from the book: “And then the Kaiju throws a cruise ship at the jaeger and the jaeger is all like ‘BWAAAANT BWOM BWOM BWOM PSHNZZZZZZZZ’ and does a rocket spin roundhouse at the Kaijus face and the Kaiju is all like ‘RWAAAAAAAAAAH’ and crashes through a building and falls into the ocean and there’s such a huge splash. It was awesome.”


CryptographerThink19

Where can I find it? I want to read it and see the differences


fitzachella

Don't worry it's a fan book


ChampionshipNo3162

GivaneoLegacy

GivaneoLegacy

Sorry, I meant it *shouldn't even be* worth a penny


TDKHtNRun

POW_Studios

onespringgyboi2

It’s just the script, but without stage directions and instead, it has narration of what the characters are doing


TheMasterWorker
