Those are very pretty, Elentári! Thanks for the links.
I only know L'enfance by name, I've never heard it, and I didn't know there was anything that famous by Peter Cornelius. I know his name as a composer, but don't think I know any of his works (or didn't till now ).

You guys already have it on DVD? I'd meant to get it for Christmas but was told the DVD will only be out in spring here. :| Loved the movie, too, and cried a lot, but in a good way. :) Sure, there were some moments that were a bit too cartoony (the air-battle for example), but that didn't spoil the ...

Why did it astonish you? I think he is awesome, but I wonder how he can be translated. There are so many word-games and so many anagrams in his books, if it's well-translated, the ranslator must be awesome too. I really, really like Moers. Well, like I said, I don't think he's bad, but I don't thin...

Just throwing in another vote for anything by Lindgren for children. :D Though I'm not sure if 11 isn't already too old for her. Nin, yep, I couldn't believe it when I noticed that Moers of all people gets translated so much. (Not that I think he's bad, just that there's a lot of great stuff that do...

Pearly linked me here. :) I think this would be pretty cool for the moot. :D Maybe not the whole five hours, but excerpts for sure. :) I've watched the first two episodes so far and thought the Bilbo-Gollum meeting was genuinely scary. Gollum as a real person is so much more frightening than as a CG...

(Summary of main points of the article)... the design shows a parabolic shaped building with concave walls. Seating for 1800 people is planned, building is planned to start ...

Wow, thanks all for the answers on the Puritans! :) I guess it's true what's been said about the distortion of history through legend. I mean, I think of the Puritans of the English Civil War as being a pretty unpleasant lot, but the Puritans who went to the US I've only ever heard of presented as s...

I don't know. I think that as a description of the effect charisma has on people, the quote from Tolkien is extremely perceptive and insightful. And Obama does have charisma. Note, please, that I'm not saying Obama's evil like Saruman. But I do think that when people listen to him what happens is ve...

That was a fun thing to do for breakfast. :D I got 23 out of 33, which for a non-American isn't so bad, I guess. :) But :bow: for Tosh. Anyway, I'm not sure this test actually tests what its writers think it tests. It was more of a 'highlights of American History' quiz than a 'Do you understand civi...

LOLOL, I'd not meant to look in here again, but it only takes a certain dose of alcohol (which always makes me very favourably inclined to all mankind, just as described in the Ode to Joy, which is really a drinking song, if you read all the verses, but that's just btw), old threads revived with int...

Alatar, true, but none of the 'concerts' that you describe are actually proper music-making. They are, as you say, for people who expect pre-packaged things, mass-events. It's ok, I suppose, for these audiences, but not for anyone who wants to hear music, rather than entertainment. So, I do hope tha...
