I knew you would like it. I felt same in the end too. People either really loved it or hated it. There did not seem to be a mid ground. I sometimes wonder if it is their inability to handle fantasy?? I have never had that problem so cannot relate.
**nods*** some things more than others...........I think fantasy is in the realm kind of by itself. I think the fact that mom and dear grandmother read fairy tales etc. to me....and later to my sister also is part of it. I could easily visualize. I watch SciFi and have no difficulty looking at it in terms of acceptance where some would say 'that is absolutely ridiculous' AND they would be same who would read your Jabberwocky and say "Oh come on. Sheppard turns into a dragon?" COME ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I found it fascinating, e.g. the scene where he is in the Atlantis infirmary and suddenly morphs into the dragon slithering out of the infirmary and down the passageway. Cool. Totally cool. :-) It is fiction but must EVERYTHING in life be based on fact??? zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Oh, and I finally saw Pan's Labrynth. Very powerful movie. It almost had me in tears at the end.

I think fantasy is one of those things where you're into it or not, you either get it or you don't. Then again, the same could be said about anything.
