Book and movie discussions!

I am soooo glad we can talk about them here. I finally got my movie and books back from my friend, immediately watched the movie and also almost immediately remembered that it made me soo flipping angry! So different from the book.

I am now half way through with the book this time. I am at the point where Arthur has forsworn himself, and no longer rules under the Pendragon banner. He sure is a whimp where it concerns his wife! But I think it is because he has no set beliefs himself. Although he did have the one were all men were equal and have the right to worship as their souls tell them too, not as ordered by any man, be he king or not!

lol, I guess this touches too close to home for me.

And, I have been working on my shawl, but guess what??? Hubby was working on my computer, and now I cant upload pictures from my camera!!!!!!! ARGH!!!!! I also knitted a triple moon doily for my bedside table. In black & heather Simply Soft Caron. The heather is really a soft silver color. So the moons are in silver with a black background, and a lace edging.

Blessed Spring everyone!

Oh no!! I'm dying to see pictures! :)The triple moon doily sounds awesome. Where did you find the pattern for it?

I'm also curious as to how that touches too close to home for you...is your husband king of something *grin* (I hope you know I'm kidding:) Do we have royalty in our midst? lol!


OK, I think i need more coffee, or something...

Brooke took the words right out of my . . fingers . . I want to see that doily!!! Please post pics as soon as you can!

I agree . . I thought Arthur was quite a wimp at many points throughout the book.

You know, I never did see the movie. I remember it coming up and the trailers . . with Angelica Houston, right? For some reason I got the vibe that it was going to ruin the whole thing for me so I avoided it. From the little you said here, I'm assuming my hunch was correct.

The movie was "okay." The book is always better, though.

Can't wait to see the moon doily too. I crochet as well as knit, myself. I have crocheted some "pagan themed" shawls, a while back. I have a triple moon design saved somewhere...must look for it.

I made the triple moon design myself, first time for me to do two colors other than a line of one color then a line of another. I am still pretty much a newby at knitting and such. I got graph paper and drew it out, counted stitches and then went for it! lol

Where the book hits too close to home, isnt so much the personal relationships she has, but those of the church and community at large. Such as she must be evil since she isnt christian, yet they come to her for charms and spells, see the power in her, yet damn her for it all while wanting it themselves. Not to say I can do the things she does LOL but I am much freer and cofident than my sisters, and many of my christian friends, because they worry about having *sinned* so much, or they are simply afraid to claim their own power and enjoy it.
