Daeus replied to the topic Favorite Movies in the forum Film 9 years, 5 months ago
This is a great idea.
I recently watched a movie that I really loved called The Hunt For Red October.
The story takes place during the cold war and the premise is that there’s a Russian submarine captain who is trying to defect to the Americans. There are a couple problems though because he happens to command a special nuclear submarine that…[Read more]

@daeus Ooh, nice. So far, I’ve written a 13 verse poem and 78 *cough* words to The Legend 2. But I’m still going, so hopefully, I’ll add a whole lot more to that.

@dragon-snapper @rolena-hatfield I got to a scene break so I stopped a little early. I got 470 written though.

@feedingmygoldfish Wow! That’s a really neat idea! I’m beginning to learn Spanish, but I doubt I’d understand half of what you’re saying…Lo siento pero no puedo.

@r-j-wordsmith I don’t even know how to begin to say that…it probably have more ‘i’s than Mississippi does. 😛
Rampike: a dead tree, especially the bleached skeleton or splintered trunk of a tree killed by fire, lightning, or wind. (definition from dictionary.com)

@daeus @jenali @spradlin I think that we are outnumbered by introverts. Probably a good thing…less cooks in the kitchen make a better concoction.
@that_writer_girl_99 I’m working on it. I haven’t written much in the past few days, but I have it all planned out.
@christi-eaton Aha! Another extrovert!Okay, if Daeus is the dictator, and…[Read more]

I won’t be responding to most reviews unless something really–and I mean really intrigues me. But just a word on the reviews.
Reviews need to have three elements.
1) basic premise of the movie– so we know what’s it about (but don’t spoil it too much)
2) positives and negatives of the movie (why you liked or didn’t like it; and generally all…[Read more] -

Daeus replied to the topic Please critique! Three poems here. in the forum Poetry Critiques 9 years, 5 months ago
@f5a8c3e92 Do you mean age nine? If so, I’m really impressed.
Not that they’re Byron or anything, but for a nine year old, they’re quite good.
I feel really bad, but for once I can’t really pinpoint what needs to be improved with these poems. I know there’s some tone, methodology, or approach about them that’s all the same but I don’t know what…[Read more]

@anyone
I’ll do some reviews!
I don’t think anyone has reviewed the movie Minions yet. All I have to say about it is…it shouldn’t even be a movie. The beginning was okay, but then you wonder where the original plot went and the main characters are far more annoying than they are amusing. My advice: don’t waste your time watching it. The Despicabl…[Read more] -

@f5a8c3e92 Ok, here’s my edits.
Prologue:
A tree loomed up ahead.
This is a drag on the pacing. Remove or see if you can incorporate into the next sentence.
The girl covered her ginger hair
You already said her hair was ginger. No need to repeat.
The corners of Halle’s mouth turned upwards
Replace ‘Halle’s’ with ‘her’.
She wasn’t far fro…
