We haven’t had a random positivity thread in a while, so how about this: Answer one or more of the following.
- What TV series deserved another season?
- What book would you adapt as an anime?
- Suggest one movie that you think belongs in the required viewing of an Introductory Film Studies college course.
- What film or film series most needs a Muppet version? Hard mode: not the Benoit Blanc murder mysteries.
Let’s go with (3). I have a list of films and other media based on the idea that the highest form of storytelling is when the story is an analogy for the process of telling the story, as in Hotel California or House of Leaves or Myst. I think that I would require students to consider one of the top three films from my list: The Matrix, Inception, or Shrek, viewer’s choice.
