Or you could just make one for yourself? Can you not???
No no philosophy :(
Reading a book that explains a book I don't understand and failing to understand either at the end.
That interior instantly made me think of lazy town
Or drive too good
I don't think I've ever seen someone over 15 do it
A guy 2 streets down had a lion up until last year. That was ... something. My niece would cry anytime it would roar and we were passing by
Not much vanity there
The grandfather paradox.
But also, even Tolkien borrowed from those before him, thats the nature of art. Hell its the nature of everything. You build on the shoulders of those before you. Beowulf for example.
The prophecy of the witch king is inspired by Macbeth. The ent attack from birnam woods.
A lot of the book is influenced by the first world war, like mordor.
Also borrows from Christianity and the classical era. Feanor from Prometheus, Turin from Oedipus, beren and luthien from Orpheus and Eurydice.
I could make a million comparisons. Perhaps we wouldn't end up in the world we're in. Or perhaps all that was layed before him had already allowed a pathway to where we are now. He was just the incredible vessel.
Well there's a lot of shows with a dated sense of humour and morality. So I won't call any of those out. Y'know anything racist or sexist etc whether intentional or not.
I'm also ignoring the fact that many shows would fail now BC what they did back then would be cliche by now. If Tolkien wrote lotr now it would be a good genre book but not what it is.
Having explained my criteria I'll go for the comedies of Jim Carey. I guess anything with a laugh track for one. I think comedy dates bad, slapstick physical comedy on the other hand is more universal and lives on, like Conan O'Brien for example. But I still don't think that dumb and dumber would work. I'd also add superbad to this.
The thing is all art is a product of it's era, being timeless is difficult and nearly impossible. An Alfred Hitchcock movie released today would fail since all that he's done has changed cinema already.
The obvious one, tags and flairs
It was more the vibe, the offering was just the most clear thing I could describe. But I'm still inclined to think i was reading too much into this or else act it wasn't even in the unlikely case that it was until the end of the week.
