Opinion of A Series of Unfortunate Events?

[Mr. Smith]

Dear Atlas FC Readers,

It is my sad duty to conduct this poll, given the sadistic decision by Netflix to release another film version concerning the events of a creepy stalker with a crush recording a few unfortunate years of three children he wish he could've had-the Baudelaires at the hands of Count Olaf...or more offensively, Jim Carrey.

The content of those books, and this thread can only bring misery, sadness, nostalgia for Tim Curry, and a serious lack of any meaningful political, geographical, BRTD mocking.

One would be much better off reading about The Happiest Little Gentle And Thorough Lover, which details the adventures of a basement dwelling man and a nail in the fictitious land of Austria. And there's always a CrabCake post too.  


But if you are still here, even now, where do you stand on this iconic, enigmatic series of 13 books?

And who is the best character?

And could this series be more fortunate than the events that are unfolding now?

These are the questions I believe to be right, but maybe they too are all wrong. Discuss.

With all due respect,

L.D. Smith
