True story: one time in high school I wanted to read the Invisible Man so I checked it out of the library but I accidentally checked out the OTHER Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison. And because I'm a dumbass, I was like halfway through this book about race relations before I was like "...You know I don't think this guy is going to turn invisible at all!"
Seeing the screenshots on Twitter don't really do justice to how cool a simple green screen suit effect looks in motion. It's so neat
Last time I was this early Dom was still opaque.
Seeing a 30 year old talk about books while dressing up is strangely adorable...
Ironically the "Griffin was always a bad guy even before the invisibility" is what the new Elisabeth Moss version goes with, to great effect.
I do so wish we could have a modern retelling of the Universal Monsters. But alas, they misunderstood what made the Monsters so great
In that case, I can't wait till we eventually get to the Island of Dr. Moreau where Welles goes absolutely bonkers even by his standards....yet one of those books that seems like it's made for Hollywood but for whatever reason never done right....even if Charles Laughton was the best Moreau.
I feel the Dom has invented a new fan service - the “kitty service”. Rather than surprising and somewhat unnecessary nudity, he instead satiates thirsty fans with adorable kitties. I know I’m not complaining.
I can't tell if he's just doing an Invisible Man thing, or if he's over-prepared for Coronavirus.
Must... immediately like the video, Must protect from... Algorithm!
“Not as sexy as Dracula” is coward talk, unhinged science is always sexy
And sin, young man, is when you treat people like things.”

"Now I'm covered in floof." That's a regular occurrence around my place
I particularly liked the little comedy bits, like when Terrence zoidburged off screen. 😂😂
I've always loved the amount of acting some one can convey from being invisible as a trope. Gloves, glasses, and a shirt floating in the air can make such an interesting way to create personality
"...and I will see you soon."
I see you've changed your opinion on Mary Shelley. ;) I wonder how that happened? Your intro is fantastic, it looks amazing and matches the visual of The Invisible Man perfectly. I agree with your reasons on the lack of adaptations - the character himself doesn't have much charm. When it comes down to it, he's just an asshole and not as sympathetic as monsters like the Phantom or the Frankenstein Monster. Still, a classic. Nice job, Dom. :)
"Even the moon is frightened of me! The whole world is frightened of the Invisible Man!"
Upvoted for the "floof" song in the bloopers.
