fun stuff from FlickFilosopher stats week of Feb 09-15 2013
Actual unretouched phrases that people plugged into search engines this week that led them to this site (with some commentary from me)…
QOTD: What characters from classic literature would you reboot, and how would you do it?
But don’t choose Oliver Twist, because Hollywood has already beat you to it…
question of the day: What’s your favorite or pet “conspiracy theory” about a book, movie, or TV show?
I was quite proud to have developed my own conspiracy theory about Hamlet (although I discovered later that I am not the first person to have thought of this)…
question of the day: How can we update archetypal stories and characters (such as Sherlock Holmes) to be more gender equitable?
Are there cases where it wouldn’t make the most sense to leave an entire story intact and simply change the protagonist’s gender? Would a better updating be retelling classic stories from the perspective of female characters who would have been on the periphery?
Doctor Who blogging: “The Snowmen”
This isn’t a story: it’s a wibbly-wobbly fuzzy-wuzzy ball of Doctor Who goo.
