shadowkat1. Eh...pretty much this: John Scalzi shares his thoughts on A Wrinkle in Time.
Take away quote? "So why are you crying through the entire film?"
Yep. Except I don't have a daughter...do have a niece though that I wish I could have taken to it. (Can't -- she's five hours away in Kinderhook, NY and in the custody of her parents who for some reason insist on doing it themselves.)
2. Apparently the Church of Scientology had decided to start their own television channel?
Well, everybody else is, why shouldn't they try it too? Although you'd think these groups would figure out by now that a)too many tv channels with over 2000 and counting in the US alone, and b) too much content on all of them...and c) they all want money...that how anyone is going to find yours or care...
Anybody else remember the good old days when there were just five television channels? NBC, CBS, ABC, UHN, and PBS? And you turned a knob on the television set to get to them? Good times! No? Just me then?
3. Hmmm, definitely watching RISE on Tuesday nights, it appeals to the high school theater geek that still resides inside me.
Well that, and I love Jason Katims work. (Parenthood and Friday Night Lights).
4. Hmmm...Timeless is back. Will start watching it again. It was fun. The plot didn't work most of the time, and it has the same problems most of Eric Kripke's shows have -- convoluted plotting and conspiracy theories...but other than that, it's fun.
How Timeless was canceled and saved in just three days
Take away quote? "So why are you crying through the entire film?"
I cried because the film has empathy not only for bright but difficult children but for all children, and because it wants so much for Meg to see herself, just as I would want to be seen and would want my own child to see her value. I cried because I remembered being lost like Meg was lost, and remembered everyone who helped me find myself, as everyone in this film does so for Meg, and as I hope I have helped my own daughter become who she is meant to be.
