QUACKCAST 590 - Fave Superhero Movies?
Ozoneocean at 12:00AM, July 5, 2022Fantastic Bestiary 9: The Wookie
Andreas_Helixfinger at 12:00AM, June 5, 2022
In this newspost I thought I’d start breaking away from myth a little bit. So far I’ve brought up species and entities from myth and legend, but this is not a series of articles that is just about mythical fiction, but also popular fiction. So! Wookies! Absolutely iconic ...

Adaptations of one thing into another is an interesting process. What's lost, what's gained, what modifications do you have to do to make it happen ...

I don't wanna be remembered; I wanna be forgotten
MEMORY and MEMORY LOSS in FICTION
Playing with memory and memory loss is a handy device for fiction writers, from soap opera-type melodrama to exciting-but-thought-provoking stories like The Matrix, and in all kinds of stories betwixt and beyond.
Like any ...
The Villain Combo Platter
Banes at 12:00AM, April 21, 2022
Back when the Deep Space Nine series was developing into a more serialized kind of story, the writers wanted to define the major threat from the distant Gamma Quadrant. Who was going to be the big villain for the series?
The stakes were pretty high, here - what if the villains ...
A Matter of Perspective
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, April 16, 2022
Consider this typical fantasy story:
There was once a young handsome man who was good with the sword, excellent with everyone in the village he lived with, and loved and cherished by all. However, he was unhappy because the one girl he fell in love with did not love him ...

Like the pic I found for this post? I personally LOVE what I see on this pic. Credits go to brazilian illustrator Marcelo Braga. He has a website where you can see this pic up-close in all of its glory, as well as more of his work HERE.

The Disaster Episode
Banes at 12:00AM, Feb. 24, 2022
The Disaster Episode is a template that I noticed in the different Star Trek series from the 90's.
It's a neat way to separate a big cast of characters into different small groups. And when it's done well, it can be very powerful and show a different ...
Fountain of Nostalgia
Banes at 12:00AM, Feb. 3, 2022
I've had this Newspost in mind again since I saw Spider Man: No Way Home. That movie pushes the nostalgia buttons with abandon, to an extent I couldn't believe. To avoid having anything spoiled I rushed out to the theater to see it as soon as I could ...
