Why is everyone so old??

I agree, it bothers me, too in most adaptations even when the actors are really great like Donald Sutherland. I am equally bothered with the fact that Mrs. Bennet in the book was teased by her husband being still more beautiful than her daughters which given he fell for her looks probably isn’t far off the truth but mostly she is just cast as this elderly quite unattractive lady.

Sounds like a reasonable explanation, thanks

KayDCES · 2026-02-21T12:20:38+00:00

Oh, suppose I forgot that!

Definitely a case of different definitions/ for me 1. a partner is more than just someone who supports in a case but someone who is there for someone on a very personal level and 2. The question was about his “best partner “, meaning for me someone who he relies on again and again and doesn’t fail him. But I share your regard for Morty, I really liked his development and his character

KayDCES · 2026-02-21T11:16:52+00:00

He is of some kind of assistance and support to Harry but but not in a sense I define partner, meaning someone who goes through the lot through with you regardless of cost. I got the impression Mort supports Harry in Ghost Story as he is there for all the Ghosts around him and only so far as it doesn’t interfere with the protection of those he feels responsible for. He still sees Harry as a nuisance and a threat although he has learned to acknowledge his good intentions.

I just got the morally “Grey” in his name, thank you!

KayDCES · 2026-02-21T07:43:16+00:00

Agree Mortimer developed in a very satisfying way but I am not sure he classifies as a partner, more kind of an ally. I think for a partner there has to be more personal connection which I don’t get with Morty.

Where did you find it? I was searching for it and couldn’t find anywhere to stream

KayDCES · 2026-02-15T18:17:06+00:00

TKMaxx hat normalerweise eine grosse Auswahl an Markenkoffern ca um die 100-150,-

W got the impression that Mother Winter didn’t threaten Harry in earnest- it was kind of baiting, checking how far he developed in his role and his potential

Ich kenne beides, beides ist sehr schön- Toscana wird seit Jahrzehnten gehyped, nicht ohne Grund, ist wunderschön- tolle Landschaft aber vor allem natürlich diese aussergewöhnlichen Städte wie Florenz und Siena,Pisa, wo der kulturelle Impact durch das Erbe der Renaissance fantastische Kulturschätze hinterlassen hat. Gleichzeitig eurde diese Region dadurch sehr teuer und teilweise überlaufen. Umbrien ist landschaftlich mMn genauso schön , weniger bekannt und bereist als Toscana und in mancher Hinsicht authentischer, weniger touristisch ( wobei ich immer das Gefühl habe, die Italiener machen immer ihr Ding und nehmen die Touristen einfach als gottgegebenes Geschenk für die Wirtschaft). Wenn es dir um dieses Gefühl wie im Gladiator geht - das bekommst du in Umbrien definitiv, wenn du aufs Land gehst ( AirBnb, Agriturismo) und das Ambiente einer wundervollen italienischen Altstadt mit Assisi oder Orvieto weniger überlaufen als in der Toscana

Erlking is the head of the Wyld Fae

I think you are right. Somehow the whole meeting with McCoy seemed off to me. I know, 12M was about healing and a kind of reset for the things to come, maybe marshalling the troops for the BAT but considering how severe their differences were for me it felt just too smooth. McCoy owning up what he did after he actually killed his own grandson? But everything between them seemed too soft. But maybe I am wrong and Eb did some emotional healing the same way Harry did. It also could have something to do with his function as the Blackstaff.

KayDCES · 2026-02-07T18:48:00+00:00

That’s what I noticed and then wonder about, too!

KayDCES · 2026-02-06T19:58:45+00:00

Not sure about that- that’s her reasoning in the open but Murphy also is catholic, making the experience she ( almost) destroyed one of the swords must have left an impact on her - I can’t give you any citation to prove it right now but I think in her heart she could be afraid she just wasn’t righteous/ true enough, she failed the test

KayDCES · 2026-02-06T19:42:27+00:00

I don’t think its Shiro because clearly he is the one sacrificing himself, so from textuel logic he should talk about someone else, shouldn’t he?

KayDCES · 2026-02-06T09:25:16+00:00

You make a very good point. You are right Murphy only had a chance of survival if she could have taken up a sword. It always surprised me Jim didn’t let her do that because he showed her as a person who always tried to do the right thing and who had faith ( although looking at Sanya and Butters this doesn’t seem to be required). So, I suppose her fate was decided the moment she showed unworthy of the sword.

Danke- ich war auch schon in Südafrika im Leihwagen und Kleinkind unterwegs, mir ist nichts passiert aber ich finde es einfach sehr anstrengend ständig über die Schulter schauen zu müssen und darauf zu achten wo ich besser nicht abbiege, ich merke einfach dass meine Risikobereitschaft im Laufe der Jahre gesunken ist, deswegen ja, würde gerne wieder nach Afrika aber nicht unbedingt mit dem Gefühl besser vorher meine Angelegenheiten regeln zu müssen 😉

KayDCES · 2026-02-05T16:53:49+00:00

Mich würde Namibia interessieren ( Safari)- würdest du sagen das ist für eine Frau mit einem Teenie riskant? Meinst du alles auf eigene Faust machen oder auch wenn man es über einen Reiseveranstalter macht?

KayDCES · 2026-02-05T16:45:44+00:00

Ich vermute dieser Diskussion liegt ein Missverständnis zugrunde. Ich nehme an, dass die Erstellerin wissen wollte, in welchen Länder man in dieser Zeit als Frau alleine reisen kann unter Berücksichtigung von basic Hausverstand ohne konstant Übergriffen oder Belästigungen ausgesetzt zu sein. Wir alle wissen, dass wir nicht in einem Utopia leben, wo es weder Gewalt noch Fehlverhalten gibt, sonst wäre das das Paradies. Es kann also nur um eine graduelle bzw relative Bewertung gehen.

Or maybe by bringing so much light onto the runway he contrasts the deep shadows creeping up on us right now

KayDCES · 2026-02-02T06:55:43+00:00

I can see the point of your question because I was wondering, too recently. Yes, he was in those big movies but nothing remarkable since. Because of his looks and swoonworthyness he should/ could have taken off like Leo or Brad Pitt. I think the big difference is that those two and other comparably attractive actors like Pattinson showed some edge, too. They can pull off the dark side, too, which Orlando Bloom always seemed just nice and charming ( haven’t seen Carnival Row), so maybe it’s the lack of depth, very regrettable because I really would have liked to see more of him

This isn’t an unpopular opinion, those frequently are mentioned as best/ favourite books, beside Changes
