And Hogfather! Can’t forget my favorite quote of all time about believing the little lies, because if you sieve matter with the finest sieve, there’s not an atom of Justice or Truth in the universe.
“Sideney prayed as he ran down the stairs. He didn’t believe in any gods, since most wizards seldom like to encourage them, but he prayed anyway the fervent prayers of an atheist who hopes to be wrong.” #TerryPratchett#Hogfather
You can't give her that!' she screamed. 'It's not safe!' IT'S A SWORD, said the Hogfather. THEY'RE NOT MEANT TO BE SAFE. 'She's a child!' shouted Crumley. IT'S EDUCATIONAL. 'What if she cuts herself?' THAT WILL BE AN IMPORTANT LESSON.

Yeah, the live action Discworld movies/specials are all pretty interesting. But the Hogfather one is just perfect. The Color of Magic one is just... kind of odd. Sean Astin as Twoflower? Ehhhhhhhhh....?
Id argue Hogfather is an outlier because it features both.
The Hogfather (2006) was not the movie i was expecting from the title, barely even saw a bone
Lstening to the Ouroboros Cycle and it's the part about dealing with the O5 council and the Chaos Insurgency's own Calvin in taking them one by one. Why does this sound like the SCP equivalent of Teatime in Hogfather?
#MyfirstTerryPratchett was "The Hogfather", in original, after a failed attempt to read "The Light Fantastic" in the Italian translation (NOPE, as big a nope as the LOTR in translation). Picked it up in a bookshop, started gigglilng at page 2, and was hooked.
