On the next rainy day, the children play a game of hide and seek. Lucy wants to check and see if the wardrobe really is empty. Edmund peers into the spare room and sees Lucy vanishing into the wardrobe. He follows her into the wardrobe, intending to keep teasing her, but once inside he finds himself in Narnia. Edmund sees no sign of Lucy and Edmund is unsure what to do. Suddenly, a deathly pale woman approaches on a sledge pulled by white reindeer. She is carrying a wand and wears a fur robe and a crown. The woman stops in front of Edmund, demanding to know what he is. Edmund introduces himself awkwardly. She sternly informs him that she is the Queen of Narnia and that he must address her appropriately. Edmund is puzzled, and stammers something incoherently.
A mysterious magician, and the last of their people, found in a semi-hidden desert city sealed from the rest of the world.
Apparently they made a prequel to the trilogy I've been watching? I assume it's about Sam and his origin story. I know THE HOBBIT is going to be good because a full baker's dozen of you were like "you don't have to, save yourself" when I mentioned I'd watch it for this series.
I have seen all the movies before... once... in theaters... and the lack of captions was a bad thing. Maybe I'll like it better once I can understand what people are saying! I am going to say AGAIN that all I wanted going into this movie was for the casting director to cast half+ of the dwarves, at random, with lady actresses. And the cowards did not do that.
I really like seeing the thriving dwarf community. It reminds me of the space station on Valerian. I like seeing fantasy cultures just doing their thing. I hate hate hate that they turned "greed" into "mental illness" and explicitly say that "where sickness thrives, bad things will follow."
The text is from The Mabinogion, "The lady of the fountain". The Mabinogion was first fully translated from Welsh into English by Lady Charlotte Guest. 3301's Reddit usernames are anagrams of "Mabinogion" ("ImagoOnNib") and "Charlotte Guest" ("CageThrottleUs").
In Meredith Sue Willis's "Tara White", we're presented with a young, white lady, Taliyah, who seems to have escaped her undesirable, drug-ridden lifestyle by joining a sex business. She's introduced to a man nicknamed "T-Rex" whom she expects to escape with but soon realizes whose lifestyle is quite different from hers. His mom is very religious and so is immediately opposed to her staying in their household. Through their encounters, I can agree with both the main character's, Taliyah's, perspective, and T-Rex's mother's. It is quite evident that Taliyah had a hard upbringing and so she was kind of forced out of her way of living. She was attracted to T-Rex and his description of his family life and she wanted so much to be a part of that that she decided to escape into it with him. However, his mother did not accept her with such grace and so it took Taliyah much explaining. After everything, you can see that T-Rex's mother came to somewhat understand Taliyah. However, I can understand her hesitance as she was very religious and opposed to such lifestyles that Taliyah lived.
