When will we get a Lovecraft biopic where we get to hear him talk to his cat and repeatedly say "Niggerman" in his gay New England accent?

Make it happen and force Jordan Peele to watch it Clockwork Orange-style

This faggot speak makes you and him both look retarded. Try communicating like a real person for fucks sake.

It’s idiomatic, anon. Don’t be such a humorless hylic

That would be extraordinarily boring. He was an extreme agoraphobic who, when he wasn't locked inside writing his stories, was locked inside writing letters and hate mail.
It's the same issue with that Emily Dickinson biopic that came out a few years back. They just had to make a bunch of shit up (like her having a lesbian affair or being a feminist girlboss) to try to make her life interesting. Because "reclusive poet hiding inside her room for decades while perfecting her craft" isn't a compelling watch.

That would be funny. You could absolutely make a comedy about a guy who somehow manages to become a legendary horror writer in between sending petty seething hate mail and just dicking around with a cat named Niggerman.

IS THAT A FUCKING TENTACLE AHHHH I'M GOING INSANE AHHHHH SAVE ME NIGGERMAN

why did his dad name the cat that?

>>212136579
Ok I'm picturing it and you're 100% right. I take back what I said.

It's faggot zoomer speak no matter what kind of spin you try to put on it.

I'd watch that. It sounds relatable.

Cast Niggerman.

neva

Niggerman was the name of his childhood cat. He never had any cats named Niggerman when he was writing, though he named the cat in The Rats in the Walls after him. I think "Shub-Niggurath" is way funnier.

>>212133412 (OP)
He didn't have a cat named Niggerman. The narrator in The Rats In the Walls did, which shows how low-class the guy is. All HP's cats had big long aristocratic names like Samuel Perkins Huntingdon III. He had family trees for his cats FFS.

>>212136893
It's still okay to enjoy his work bro. Most geniuses are racists.

>>212137037
Shut up, faggot. He's right. Well, actually this guy is: >>212136882
What does this meme being a meme have to do with his racism? His racism was based, that's half the reason people here like him.

Was Nigger somehow a common name for black pets back in the day? I remember watching Pink Floyd's The Wall, and there's a scene where Pinky is watching some old ass Brit movie where there was a black dog, and the dude in the movie was like "AH, NIGGER OL' BOY!" shit was hilarious

>>212138318
I knew quite a few rednecks that named their pets Nigger

>>212138318
There was some famous army dog who got buried alongside servicemen who was called nigger too.

I think you guys are thinking of the same dog. The movie Pink is watching is "The Dam Busters," based on a true story, in which the squadron had a pet black lab named nigger (who was a real dog!)

>>212136127
You definelty can, but you'd have to be arthouse about it.

He's literally me.

You'd have to privately fund it and release it online for free so the jew couldn't ruin it.

Was she nude the whole time? I'd watch it!

Step back. I've got this.

>>212140575
What did he mean by this?

>>212138318
Yes, my great-grandfather had a dog named 'Nigger' in 1970s Yorkshire. I can see why they wouldn't incorporate the name into NuKino, but it's a shame that classic films and stories such as The Dam Busters are being purged

>>212140999
Checked and appreciated.

Lovecraft was not a groid thus he cannot be gay.

100% scientifically accurate.

A Lovecraft biopic would unironically be way too boring, dude was a shut-in and wasn't even mentally ill in a fun and interesting way.

>>212134982
As much as I enjoy him, he wasn't any of that.
Clark Ashton Smith wrote about similar themes and wrote arguably better, hence why he was way more prominent back in their days. Not to mention that Lovecraft himself took heavy inspirations from Dunsany and Poe.
Majority of his writing deals with the very fundamental fear of unknown, nothing that much original in it too. "Cosmic Horror" thing only relevant in like a handful of his tales. And he loved to spice things up with a good old monster scare here and there, in typical pulpy fashion.
Lovecraft wasn't ahead of his time, on contrary, he was a product of his time and wrote accordingly with the cultural zeitgeist of his epoch. Things like Temple are satire of that period's political climate, and stuff like Cold Air simply isn't that impressive due to modern cultural trends.
Lovecraft wasn't super popular back in his day simply because he was a mediocre writer with mediocre success (he wasn't really as downtrodden as people tend to imagine).

>>212133412 (OP)
I'm almost done reading his complete works, he was a pretty good writer and even more racist than I thought. A lot of the stories are clearly inspired by the horrors of being surrounded by minorities, especially the ones he wrote after moving to New York.

It's not just his cat. There's a cat called Niggerman in one of his stories and I also remember there's another cat in a different story called simply Nig.

For me, it's N'gah-Kthun.
