That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,' said the Cat. I don't much care where -' said Alice. Then it doesn't matter which way you go,' said the Cat. So long as I get SOMEWHERE,' Alice added as an explanation. Oh, you're sure to do that,' said the Cat, 'if you only walk long enough.”. 8213; Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland. I hope that Caitlyn finds them.

Empires and Mangers: Movie Reviews

http://empiresandmangers.blogspot.com/p/movies.html

Being A Hero vs. Doing Heroic Things: Katniss, Bond, and James B. Donovan. Several blockbuster movies this fall have presented very different views of heroism. James Bond (Spectre, 11/6), Katniss Everdeen (Mockingjay Part 2, 11/20), and James Donovan (Bridge of Spies, 10/16) all embody a version of what it means to be a hero. Are they all worth emulating? Should we make a distinction between being a hero vs. doing heroic things? Age of Ultron: Human Visions, Second Chances and Filled Gaps:. Creates a rem...

http://empiresandmangers.blogspot.com/2013/07/the-ocean-at-end-of-lane.html

Sunday, July 21, 2013. The Ocean At The End Of The Lane. Monsters come in all shapes and sizes. Some of them are things people are scared of. Some of them are things that look like things people used to be scared of a long time ago. Sometimes monsters are things people should be scared of, but they aren't.". This review will look at The Ocean at the End of the Lane. The latest from best-selling author Neil Gaiman. The film rights were optioned. But, as Chesterton said, happiness is a hard taskmaster.

Empires and Mangers: The Best Stories

http://empiresandmangers.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-best-stories.html

Saturday, July 25, 2015. What good are fairy tales if we can't find our way? Ransom Riggs, Hollow City. As the peculiar children in Ransom Rigg's series are desperately trying to find a way to save someone they love, several of the children keep reading a book of fairy tales that apparently contain important truth. One of the children complains that the tales are useless. As far as he can see, they are lost; they need concrete truth, not fanciful stories. A woman with ten silver coins lost one. I would a...

Empires and Mangers: The 'Ick Factor' And The Planned Parenthood Videos

http://empiresandmangers.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-ick-factor-and-planned-parenthood.html

Tuesday, July 28, 2015. The 'Ick Factor' And The Planned Parenthood Videos. That's true. Something is not wrong because it makes me squeamish any more than it is right because it doesn't. Make someone else feel the same. So is this a legitimate argument? Am I and other pro-life advocates simply wanting to create a moral framework to support our weak stomachs? Obviously, I don't think that's the case. The presence of the ‘ick factor’ has no bearing on an argument's merits. Maybe some people have an 'ick' ...

Empires and Mangers: June 2015

http://empiresandmangers.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html

Thursday, June 25, 2015. Neil Gaiman's Interworld Trilogy: Heroes And Cautionary Tales. I was first introduced to the writings of Neil Gaiman through  Neverwhere. A dark, moving, parallel universe fantasy that takes place beneath the streets of London. As I further explored his writing, I found him to be constantly creative, often profound, and entirely capable of writing books for both adult and youth audiences (American Gods and  The Ocean at the End of the Lane.

Empires and Mangers: May 2015

http://empiresandmangers.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html

Thursday, May 7, 2015. Age of Ultron: Human Visions, Second Chances and Filled Gaps. The Avengers have invaded your local theaters - and the public consciousness.   Critics like it and audiences love it. . Im not going to rehash all the (appropriately) congratulatory things others are saying about the quality of the film. If we can grant that Joss Whedon knows what hes doing, we can move on to issues that go beyond the artistic merits of Age of Ultron. Where is our salvation? Saturday, May 2, 2015. If yo...
