That was a bit of a long response but this is the film thoughts and reviews topic, haha. @eliasg I would love to hear your thoughts!

@eliasg

Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey.

I wrote out a detailed response to this, but my post didn’t go through. 😒 So I’ll try again.

I think it’s a flawed adaptation but a quality modern film. It is very stylistically “Christopher Nolan” which is exactly why it is flawed yet still quality.

As an adaptation, it gets several things wrong – the b…[Read more]

@quicksilverwyvern

I have heard, but have not read.

Chocolate, however, I have consumed. The best is a ballance between dark and milk with some deied fruit or cookie bits in it. Unless it is Spanish truffles. Mmmmmm….

Have you heard of/read Christina Baehr? I have a feeling her work is a very different genre from what you are talking about,…[Read more]

@bilbo-baggins

I never thought I’d be writing to Bilbo…but it’s not impossible.

Hello! My name is Liberty Durmaz. You’re not related to Frodo Baggins, by any chance, right? Because I know a Frodo Baggins. (for real, though, I have a friend who loves Frodo Baggins, so she uses his name for a profile, like you.)

So, I’m guessing for you it’s L…[Read more]

Hello! My name is Liberty Durmaz. I’m the King’s young daughter (18, to be exact), and I love history, siblings, reading, writing, and a whole host of other things. I’m not super active on KP, but still around.

A  couple questions!

Are you a guy or a gal? I would really like to know.

What kind of business are you interested…[Read more]

@savannah_grace2009

Thank you for sharing. Could you share a little about your parent? How was/is it for you?

@reaganramm

Thank you for sharing that verse! I will also check into the video.

@quicksilverwyvern

Oh, hello! You’re new! I’ll have to introduce myself…thank you so much for praying! Yes, it is rough at times, but it’s also helped us grow a lot. Welcome to KP!

@whalekeeper @koshka @linus-smallprint

Thank you, guys, so much! I really appreciate it. Thank you for your prayers.

@elishavet-pidyon

Aw…thanks so much. I love what you said about “unexpected joy”. It warmed my heart. I see God’s hand in this trial, even though sometimes I forget about it when I’m focusing on myself and not Christ, and I…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Very good. It’s a delicate matter.

So Inglor is a monkey. 😀

Precisely.

That makes me think of the god-disguised-as-a-beggar, and I love the themes associated with that trope. Except in this case, you have a lot more variety going on. This is not just a message about judging a book by its cover – this is also about preconceived b…

@elishavet-pidyon

In his world “elf” is a racial slur. *narrows eyes at Koshka*

Of course it is. XD I will never speak that word around Inglor again.

He has heightened senses generally, talks to trees, and is ridiculously agile.

So Inglor is a monkey. 😀

For instance, a stranger traveling through the Wode expects to see lots of animals, maybe a r…

@bilbo-baggins

Hmm. That is a good scene. I love Rivendel in both. It’s such an ethereal yet cozy place. The dramatic camera angles had me laughing a lot too, or wiggling in awe depending. It’s funny how specific scenes will stick on one’s head. Do you ever imagine your books as movies?

Ah.

Yes! Actually read that aloud to my Mom once. It was…[Read more]

@Whalekeeper

ACK! I did not respond about Remi…

Ye. The whole story feels very French; I have a playlist and half the songs are just French.

That. Is. Fabulous. How else does one get into the right mood?

But it’s a fantasy and everyone gets into weird wacky hijinks. (With many games of croquet.)

Croquet! *stares into the distance h…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Smeltinggggggggg…… Yessss.

Technically he’s not an elfling, he’s a Dílis… that is, a descendant of the Vow Keepers. In his world “elf” is a racial slur. *narrows eyes at Koshka* But basically, yes. XD He has heightened senses generally, talks to trees, and is ridiculously agile. But his real gift is that he can see truth.…[Read more]

@stellybean

Wouldn’t it be great to own an ice cream or candy shop, and spend your days making pretty treats?

@stellybean

…If cereal has a lot of milk, is it a soup?

Hmm. I don’t know. It’s not cooked, so I’m a little skeptical. Not to mention, soup is savory. But I am willing to be persuaded.

……Are burritos/tacos a sandwich?

Decidedly no. Sandwiches are made from two pieces of bread with another type of food in between them.

………Is ice cream beautiful?…

@stellybean

There’s a reason I don’t drink caffeine.

I have a lot of things to thank God for, and this is certainly one of them. I can practically feel your radioactive energy shooting out of my screen.

Soooooo… ye like whaaaaales?

Wouldn’t you believe it, I’ve never been asked this question. Huh.

I actually have neutral opinions when it comes…[Read more]

@stellybean

You’re crazy. I like you.
