The Never Ending Story. I was 28. Still shaken a couple decades later.

The film ends about 1/3 into the book. And the book gets dark

I am actually trying to read a water damaged copy of the book, lent to me by a friend who named her son Atreyu.

The internet and grad school have combined in an attempt to destroy my ability to read a paper book.

Maybe a story that never ends is too big a challenge in my quest to regain that ability?

Nah, I love dark shit and I can’t wait to get to the part where he meets the nihilistic tortise with allergies. I am really curious to see what the film makers were working with from the book.

I saw this the first time I actually got high, I was probably 15 or 16. I don't think I've laughed that hard since, I was absolutely not prepared for Falcor going in.
