60 of 131 · most liked firstLots chatter in these social media streets bout Children of Blood and Bone. ALL BLACK EVERYTHING flick got ALL BLACK DRAMA. But this blog ain't bout none of that. Instead, I tackle another related controversy about the joys, rewards, perils, and pitfalls of writing African-inspired fantasy.

neutral · AI labelView post →okay so CHILDREN OF BLOOD AND BONE is one of my favorite books of the last decade and the trailers make the upcoming movie look stunning with a cast so good I want to fling myself off a cliff, but also Tomi Adeyemi is livid and says it was the worst experience of her life, do we know what’s up????
positive · AI labelView post →Author Tomi Adeyemi is distancing herself from Paramount’s upcoming adaptation of her novel ‘CHILDREN OF BLOOD AND BONE’. “There is a reason I will not post anything about the adaptation of my work… I have not seen the film and I will not watch it. It’s been painful holding this back from you all.”

neutral · AI labelView post →Me: I'm excited for the Children of Blood and Bone movie but a lot of people are unhappy with the cast and issues with colorism. I wonder who is making the movie.... OH.
neutral · AI labelView post →I dunno nothing about Children of Blood and Bone. But a movie based on an original book series featuring a black mostly female cast sounds lit. So I will be watching. And I'm definitely gonna read the book

positive · AI labelView post →I don't think I'm going to watch Children of Blood and Bone. The book was such an exceptional read that I don't think it can be fully captured on film. I could be wrong but I'll never know.
negative · AI labelView post →Line that made me laugh out loud from a Reddit about Tomi Adeyemi's disparagement of the movie adaptation of Children of Blood and Bone: "We have Wakanda at Home."

neutral · AI labelView post →Just learned that Tomi Adeyemi will not be supporting the film version of Children of Blood and Bone. . Like the Last Airbender movie, Paramount has a proclivity for dropping the ball with any media they have their hands on. . Make of this what you will.
negative · AI labelView post →I can already hear the wakanda accent from the Children of Blood and Bone movie. I love how they managed to find multiple Yoruba men but somehow we are going to have Amandla Stenberg representing Yoruba women?)
negative · AI labelView post →“Children of Blood and Bone”, the film version of the acclaimed novel by Nigerian-American novelist Tomi Adeyemi, set for early 2027 release.

neutral · AI labelView post →Also! To any cuties that's been to the movies recently: Have any of you seen the trailer for the "Children of Blood and Bone" movie?? IT LOOKS SO SICK~!!!!! If you haven't yet, I'm sure it's on YT or something. Go check it out!! I loooovvveee me some new magic systems~ 💙💙
positive · AI labelView post →Considering that Adeyami did initially defend Steinberg being cast in the film... ...something CLEARLY must have happened later on in production. But it's very obvious that Children of Blood and Bone really is going to be a mess...
negative · AI labelView post →And besides, Zaslav has made it no secret that he’s maga. And yet he was perfectly fine with a Superman movie that said “fuck Netanyahu and fuck billionaires”. Not to mention Ellison’s studio also has a fantasy film set in Africa coming out next year (Children of Blood and Bone).

neutral · AI labelView post →I was iffy about the Children of Blood and Bone movie but I think that trailer just won me over. Lemme go reread that series for a refresher
positive · AI labelView post →I’m a little conflicted about the ‘Children of Blood and Bone’ movie. On one hand, I want to support because it’s an all-Black star-studded cast, but on the other— Tomi Adeyemi not rocking.
neutral · AI labelView post →Meanwhile, Michael Jai White in BLOOD AND BONE also goes through the whole movie mostly one shoting bad guys but it works there because he's got the physique and physicality to convince you that he can do that. When he hits somebody, it looks like it would knock somebody the fuck out.

positive · AI labelView post →Re-watched Blood and Bone (2009) with Michael Jai White. Love this movie.
positive · AI labelView post →Throw in Kenny as Haggar or Alex. Shoot it like a mix of Blood and Bone and a cheap 90s Canon film. Tight 90 minutes. Think you'd have a decent cult hit
