Cat-Tales 56: Armchair Detective
Some nights, you get to swing across the city on a silken batline, pose on rooftops like an ever-present Angel of Justice, and pummel bad guys to the pavement with a satisfying thump... Other times, you have to sit and exercise the little gray cells.
The story begins with Chapter 1: L4 Revisited on the Cat-Tales website.

There's still liquid in that glass
It's hard to come away from Randy Pausch's The Last Lecture:� ; Achieving Your Childhood Dreams without feeling inspired. It's impossible not to sense that you've just spent an hour with one of those truly superior individuals who hasn't been passively putting on time on the planet, he has been living his life.� ; It's impossible not to notice that he has learned a lot, and because he is a born teacher, he is sharing it.
A very good friend of mine watched this with me recently, and I was struck by the first thing they referenced afterwards was virtually the only negative in the entire program. Fairly early he talks about practicing with a football team.� ; No ball. Coach asks how many men on a team. 22.How many has the ball at any given moment? 1. Right.

Iconic Catwoman in Museum Superheroes Exhibit
No one who has listened to me spout for more than 10 minutes will be surprised to learn that serious people take superheroes very seriously. The Metropolitan Museum of Art just opened a special exhibition running through September.
The symbolic and metaphorical associations between fashion and the superhero are explored in this compelling exhibition. Featuring movie costumes, avant-garde haute couture, and high-performance sportswear, it reveals how the superhero serves as the ultimate metaphor for fashion and its ability to empower and transform the human body. Objects are organized thematically around particular superheroes, whose movie costumes and superpowers are catalysts for the discussion of key concepts of superheroism and their expression in fashion. Doesn't sound like kid's stuff, does it. For those who can't make it to the exhibit in person,... -
The Day Something Happens
Many years ago we had a thread based on Aristotle's Poetics for Screenwriters, luscious little volume which broke down these timeless principles of storytelling with examples from movies that we all know. Oedipus, Odysseus, three bags full. We kinda-sorta know the gist: slept with mom, trojan horse, bitch of a time getting home. But we don't really know the story, not to follow Ari dissecting the moving parts. But Michael Corleone, there we know the story fiber by fiber, molecule by molecule. An offer you can't refuse. You broke my heart, Freddo. Leave the gun; take the cannoli. The title of that thread was "Never follow rules…" and that is taken from an Aaron Sorkin quote, which is simply the best piece of advice for... -
