    About the beginning: Crowley is the one that caused humans to have free will... Which could (quite easily from our point if view) be seen as a good thing to have. Aziraphale gave them humanitys first weapon ... And I guess history has shown us what humanity has used weapons for ... So arguably not Aziraphales brightest moment, even if he did it from a place if wanting to protect them ;)

    • @Miche-

      But if Crowley is the one that gave humans intelligence therefore free will, that means he's Lucifer. In the Bible Lucifer is the light bringer, the one that gave us our ability to have conscience. My confusion comes from that line "Lucifer and the boys" that Crowley said. That can't be right, right?

    It is important that the Book is not _only_ by Neil gaiman, but also by a second Author called Sir Terry Pratchet, a prolific and beloved writer who created the _41_ Book Spanning "Discworld" Series. I can only reccomed his work, he is briliant. sadly he passed away in 2015 at only age 66 from after a long and hard battle with Alzheimers, with his last book in the series written in his clear episodes. Him and Gaiman where good friends and this is pretty much Gaimans Eulogy to his departed friend.
    The second and third series are based on a rough draft the two made but never wrote

      I remember when they were first talking about making an adaptation of the novel, Neil and Terry were joking about adding scenes set in sushi restaurants so they could sit in and do cameos while eating lots of sushi someone else paid for. Terry did cameos in all the movies based on his works while he was alive, but in this one he's only represented by his iconic hat, which lives in Aziraphale's bookstore.

      I think it was quite a good Adaptation, probably because Gaiman was actually deeply involved. this was his farewell to Pratchett and he made sure that it is as good as can be.
      There are some changes, but mainly they serve to streamline the story. YOu may have noticed that sometimes the book can veer off a bit, which is due to the fact that Pratchet and gaiman wrote it mostly via Letter and email. Here, gaiman just uses the opportunity to introduce some characters earlier and such like

  • @storageheater
    @storageheater Год назад +35

    I dunno if anyone mentioned yet, and it's not a *great* answer, but some of the strange choices are because the original book is based on the old movie, The Omen, in which an American diplomat is persuaded by an evil priest to secretly adopt a child whose mother died in childbirth (much like Good Omens, baby switching in the hospital etc), who they name Damien, and who is looked after by an evil nanny and acquires an evil rottweiler. Good Omens just throws another baby into the mix - it does mention the third baby in the book, and says something like "It would be nice to think Baby 3 was adopted by a loving family, and grew up happily. It would be nice, wouldn't it?" and I thiiink then leaves it hanging for most of the book. Eventually I think it confirms that was the case, though I can't recall whether it's clear if that had *always* been the case or whether Adam willed it.

    The baby switching was confusing but the point is some babies were switched which meant Crowley & Azeriphael followed the wrong kid.
