Repost but it’s a great one. Also there’s this that got cut off by reddit.

The main problem with this is that LoEG was always about exploring the baggage of characters. The parts that got left behind as they got cleaned up and sanitized. Like Allan Quartermain’s drug use or Nemo’s casual murderousness and racism. You can’t feature the Golliwog in a work like that and not mention racism or how uncomfortable it is talking to a living breathing blackface caricature. Even Dianey knew better than to use the Mandarin from the comics. That’s why he’s a more civilized Genghis Khan instead of Fu Manchu in Legend of the Ten Rings.

An entire generation of fat scrote weirdos experienced their sexual awakening to Creature from the Black Lagoon during a late night showing in like 1968.
It's the only explanation for all the fish-fricking media we now have

I never bought the romance in The Shape Of Water. It always felt more like she was molesting a small child.

Why are they keeping the fishman in a public swimming pool? Does he have to get out of the pool to use the bubbler because he can’t actually drink chlorinated water?

It's not well explained, the swimming pool. No, the water doesn't matter to him. There's crime, full penetration as Carpy r*pes her for a while then the comic just sort of ends. I'm not joking

Even Lovecraft didn’t have the Deep Ones as male feminists. They actually married the humans before mating with them. Part of the horror of the story was normal New England townsfolk voluantarily laying root to a bunch of freaky viswyf. Yes, it wasn’t just woman riding the fish stick. Blokes were also supposed to sleep with the fishes.
