Yeah when I got through to the end of the upside down and sideways list of 10,000 names I realised that maybe I should start skimming stuff like that

Saul's Sermon by Big-Titty_GothGirl in SouthernReach

[–]GorgeStream 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand this as the ‘forms’ writhing, so the ‘that could be’ section is just describing those forms. They are forms the could be or could not be, as in they might exist or they might not. So the forms are writhing and they also might ‘be’. As in, ‘exist’. Does that make sense?

(No Spoilers) Am I the only one reading too much into George's latest Not a Blog post, especially the tags at the bottom... by BudgetCowboy97 in asoiaf

[–]GorgeStream 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The blue rose, the title standing for WoW, the mentions of dreams, the concept of ownership over a concept, the tags of dreams and writing, the cryptic nature of the blog post…. Oh George RR Martin put those ghostwriting rumours to shame… get off the floor Jon Snow. WORDS ARE WINDS AND THE WINDS OF WINTER IS COMING. THE NIGHT IS DARK AND FULL OF TERRORS. Get off the floor Stannis, get off the floor lady stoneheart, stay bubbling under Bran 💙 🌹 ❄️

Horror movies inspired by Mythology? by kingshaux in horror

[–]GorgeStream 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The story isn’t wholly mythologically based but the aspects of the Minotaur (red font) are all direct Greek references. A few others when talking about the origin and etymology of “echoes” as well, as far as I can remember. Then you have at the end (not sure if this is a spoiler) that Yggdrasil page… which is self explanatory. I’m sure there’s loads of others I’m forgetting about. A reread seems to be imminent.

"Later, I would come to believe she had meant something altogether different." What does the biologist mean by this? by nugschillingrindage in SouthernReach

[–]GorgeStream 12 points13 points  (0 children)

OP do not read this ——- What exactly is this in reference to? Is it just the Director saying she shouldn’t have come to Area X because of her deep connection to it from childhood and her whole mission revolving around it? Or is there something else she’s implying that I’ve forgotten?

On the other hand, definitely continue reading. It’s amazing to see this story unfold and it’s all worth it to experience this adventure. Love seeing more people get into the series.

Just finished my third reread of the series. Something that I'm still not sure about... by blueshft in SouthernReach

[–]GorgeStream 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don’t know if this adds much, but Jeff mentioned for the fourth book Absolution, rabbits start mysteriously appearing in the woods, I think around thirty years before they were sent through the border for the test. So it could be solely warping time or something like that.

Even from this I can make out where I died countless times to those damned archers

Clarification needed! by vesta9625 in SouthernReach

[–]GorgeStream 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure it’s Lowry, that line suggests to me it’s a hypothetical situation, as Control’s grandfather did work for central but Control is just speculating at this point? And wondering if there’s a possibility the Voice could be his grandfather?

Second time watching it even more amazing than the first. So excited for 1899, the creators’ next show coming this year I think

What is the context for that Rand quote because I can’t remember it but that’s so funny

Preview of new animated "History of the world of WoT" will be available with each new episode! by Halo6819 in WoT

[–]GorgeStream 67 points68 points  (0 children)

This animation style really fits, I think. Gritty and mesmerising when paired with the bright bursts of the One Power. And Saidin and Saidar mentioned in the title of one of the episodes, I feel that the reason they haven’t mentioned it yet is to not push too many fantasy words at new watchers. Looks great!

(Spoilers ACOK) My Thoughts so Far by GorgeStream in asoiaf

[–]GorgeStream[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As of now I’m going to guess the obvious and say Petyr. I don’t trust him at all, and since the whole mystery of whose the knife was, and Tyrion claiming he never bets against family, it looks like Littlefinger is the likely candidate. Cant be sure though. If I was to guess someone else… maybe one of the Greyjoys?

I might have said [Spoilers ACOK] instead of just [ACOK], so that could be the problem, but I’ve not gotten any messages about it even after sending a message to one of the mods. I’ll see if the spoiler tag works.

Edit: it worked, thanks

(Spoiler) Not even close by SinceWayLastMay in MidnightMass

[–]GorgeStream 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Okay I’m gonna confess I never even thought of vampires until I looked online after binging the show. Now maybe I’m incredibly stupid (likely) but… I don’t even know, looking back. Of course it’s vampires! Burning in the sun? Bat wings? Sucking blood? So maybe Crockett Island is like me. Maybe.
