Η λέξη doxa επανερχόταν ακατάπαυστα στα έργα του Ρολάν Μπαρτ: Ήταν η κοινή γνώμη, το πλειοψηφικό πνεύμα, η μικροαστική συναίνεση, η φωνή του αυθόρμητου, η βία της προκατάληψης. Νεκρή επανάληψη, εξηγούσε, που δεν προέρχεται από κανενός το σώμα, ει μη από το σώμα των νεκρών - επαναλαμβανόμενο νόημα σαν να μη συνέβαινε τίποτα. Μέσα απ΄αυτό που αποκαλούσε πανδαιμόνιο των κοινωνικών λόγων, απέδιδε στη Γνώμη έναν ιδιαίτερο τύπο αλαζονείας, έναν ειδικό τρόπο ρητορικής δεσποτείας: Η βασιλεία που αντιτασσόταν στον θρίαμβο του στρατευμένου λόγου, επαναστατικού ή θρησκευτικού. Η Γνώμη δεν θριαμβολογεί, αρκείται στο να βασιλεύει, διαχέεται, κολλάει σαν λέρα, είναι μια νόμιμη, φυσική κυριαρχία, ένα γενικό επίχρισμα, ένας οικουμενικός λόγος, ένας τρόπος πλατυρρημοσύνης που εμφωλεύει στην απλή πράξη ομιλίας για οποιοδήποτε θέμα.

Someone please tell me I'm too addicted to HTTYD, because even though I tell it to myself it's not enough to get me to back down.

Tell me why all day today I was crafting HTTYD theories and the like. Literally spent hours on Youtube watching videos. Specifically Craig Ferguson's late night talk show.

It was even like falling into old habits too, because I addictively watched his interviews with Alfred Molina. Youtube channel @The Jayleno Fly btw

What I came to find to out today however, is that he interviewed practically the entire HTTYD cast.

He had Gerard Butler on 5 times, Jay Baruchel 2 times, America Ferrera 1, Jonah Hill 1, TJ Miller 1, David Tennant 1, Kit Harrington 1. If you'd also like to know, he had Alfred Molina 16 times.

Then I came to shift, now it's interview videos with the cast. Gerard and Craig for HTTYD 2, America and Jay for The Hidden World. Then I watched the trailers.

Now I am prepared for youtube to recommend me more interviews, let's go with Dean and Chris, see if I can find one with TJ or Jonah.

And hopefully, also be able to find where they actually mention the shows. Because the odd thing I had found is that they can't go into specific detail. Jay does say Riders of Berk on Craig's show. So far found a single video where there's a brief mention of RTTE, but it's still just 'a show'. The literal name wasn't mentioned. You only know it's Race to the Edge because it was at The Hidden World's release, and the interviewer says it got to six seasons.

I want more though.

How To Train Your Dragon 2 (2014)

If How to Train Your Dragon 2 isn’t as good as the first, it’s only because the original offered the kind of first-time visual spectacle that could never quite be duplicated. This is a more mature film whose evolving relationships enrich the vivid world that’s quickly becoming a favorite. It’s got plenty of adventure, plenty of laughs - and a surprising amount of romance too.

Set 5 years after Hiccup (voiced by Jay Baruchel) and Toothless met, dragons have become as much a part of Berk as its human villagers. While exploring and charting unexplored islands, our hero encounters Drago Bludvist (Dimon Hounson), a warlord who is building an army of dragons.

If the first movie was about showing us how different Hiccup was from his father, Stoick the Vast (Gerard Butler), this sequel is about how much he resembles his mother, Valka (Cate Blanchett), who we meet for the first time in this film. Then, the story takes him further by showing us how he is his own person. At this point in his life, Hiccup is no longer a boy. He’s an adult who hasn’t quite accepted all the responsibilities that come with being the son of the village chief. It’s clear that someday, he will lead Burke. He single-handedly changed human-dragon relationships completely through his willingness to listen and empathize. We can see those qualities, as well as Hiccup’s understanding of the fire-breathing reptiles in his mom. What ultimately makes him grow into his own is the villain, a man who actually has a lot in common with him.

Now that we’ve learned about this world and we’ve met the dragons, we're able to explore the characters. Some of the movie’s best scenes have nothing to do with Drago or the titular creatures. They’re romantic scenes where we see the chemistry between Hiccup and his fiancée, Astrid (America Ferrera), or between Stoick and Valka. The chemistry between the actors is so good you forget you’re looking at living drawings. You just see them as living, breathing people. That’s quite a feat.

By comparison, the film’s villain does not get a whole lot of development, but that’s sort of the point. Ever-hopeful, Hiccup believes Drago is simply misunderstood and that a hand extended in friendship will transform him. It worked with dragons, after all. Maybe he even thinks himself a little bit better than all the adults who warn him about the warlord, that they just don’t understand something that he does. After all, Hiccup and Drago have a lot in common. They’ve both been scarred by dragons but their time with them has ultimately made them stronger. The truth is they might’ve been friends once upon a time but somewhere along the way, the two became mirror opposites. Just as the giant dragon in the first movie couldn’t be reasoned with, Drago also can’t be reasoned with. That might sound like a cliché, but it isn’t, not in this movie. It’s a lesson Hiccup will have to learn before it’s too late.

Ultimately, How to Train Your Dragon 2 is a very different kind of adventure. Rather than boiling down to a boss that needs to be beaten up/killed, it’s a battle of wills and beliefs. If that doesn’t necessarily sound visually dynamic, you’ve figured out the film’s only flaw. While there are plenty of gorgeous scenes, the soundtrack is just as good as the first, the jokes are hilarious and rewarding, the character designs inspired, the emotions rich and the action scenes are rousing, the finale is not the same kind of jaw-dropper we saw in 2010. Is it a big deal? Only if you demand the movies be on the exact same level. If this was a standalone adventure, it would easily earn itself a 5-star rating. Because it’s a sequel and those have different expectations thrust upon them, I’m going to give it a 4.5 - but only because we’re rounding down with extreme prejudice. (On Blu-ray, May 27, 2022)

Dracula 2000 theory: Mary was actually gay the whole time - that's how she resisted Dracula and killed him. She was also still a virgin for that reason. Lucy knew Mary was still a virgin, too; she just didn't know Mary was gay.

Autumn 1895: Ravenclaws and Gryffindors play a friendly game together while Glenn plots on how to distract the opposing team's keeper and his rival, Nolan.

Characters featured: Nolan Miller @hogwartsmysteryho, Oliver Gerard @kc-and-co, Ethel Hexley @the-al-chemist.

Characters mentioned: Selene Fraser @lifeofkaze, Lysander Mercury @slytherindisaster, Daniel Gibson @catohphm, Siobhan Llewelyn @kc-and-co.

Warnings: mentions of Sethel

"That was a foul!"

"Not again, Miller," cried his teammate. Ravenclaw looked like they were having a tough time with their reserve keeper. Glenn minded little, except for Nolan Miller's incompetence which was getting on his nerves. He wanted a nice clean, and fair game, which shouldn't be a hard ask. Especially since Hexley and Fraser made the least amount of trouble on the quidditch field.

As all the quidditch teams have completed their tryouts and added new members to make up for the lost ones, his friend and captain, Oliver Gerard, made a deal with Ravenclaw to share the pitch for a quidditch friendly due to an accidental mishandling of the reservations. It allowed the reserves to keep up with the practice.

"He wasn't haversaking Miller. Sorry guys, let's have a rematch." The Ravenclaw captain called with the quaffle under his arm, returning it back to the referee. He was getting all the different balls back in the box before re-releasing them.

Both the Gryffindor and Ravenclaw team groaned out loud before flying back into their respective position.

"Augh! I wish Miller wouldn't spoil the game so much. He's worse than Lys and Hexley." Glenn groaned.

"Miller may be annoying but he is also their weakest link, Rosewood." Oliver flew beside him. "Besides you know how to get to him fumble better than anyone else."

"Well, he is only a reserve. It's not like he will affect the big matches."

"And so are you." Oliver retorted back, almost in a backhanded way. Glenn groaned at him before focusing back on the game.

"As much as I would love to give my sole attention on quidditch I have other duties to attend to."

"Ah yes, becoming the number one prefect that Gryffindor has ever seen. You're doing a great job at that." He teased.

"Be quiet, Gerard."

Oliver laughed before everyone was finally settled and ready to go. The referee opens the box of quaffle, bludgers and snitch, and the opposing team grabs the quaffle first.

Oliver and Glenn swerved to either side of the chaser, trying to hold her in. Hexley followed behind, blocking the other Ravenclaw chasers.

"Scatter!" Hexley yelled. Glenn took a quick glance to see why. A bludger was incoming at a rapid speed. There was no way that any beater could come in time to defend the chasers.

Glenn and Oliver abandoned the chaser. The bludger came at lightning speed before almost knocking the Ravenclaw chaser down. He dropped the quaffle just as Glenn had hoped.

Hexley was sharper and quickly swooped down to grab the quaffle before any of the Ravenclaw chasers had a chance. She shot straight towards the hoops, already crossing the midline of the pitch.

Glenn and Oliver followed quickly behind. Fraser and Daniel Gibson were in a chase below them for the snitch. Glenn was hoping they would stall a little more. It would be annoying to end the game so quickly without even putting in a score.

"Rosewood!" Hexley yelled as Glenn got close. He saw it too. Siobhan Llewelyn was ready to swing the bludger towards Hexley's broom with her stick, and he knew what she wanted to do. Oliver swooped in and blocked any other chasers interrupting her pass.

With a good throw, the quaffle landed heavily on his hand before almost dropping the ball. He groaned slightly in pain when he saw Hexley give a slight smirk. 

Nolan looked ready, prepared for Glenn to come. He swerved about, trying to cover all the hoops.

"I would take a heads up if I were you," Glenn warned, but Nolan smirked.

"I'm not falling for it this time, Rosewood." He shifted lower to block the bottom hoops.

Perfect.

Glenn made his arm look like it was going to throw down, but at the last second, he made an overarm throw at the tallest loop.

Nolan swiftly moved his broom up, but it was too late. The quaffle smoothly sailed through the hoop.

"That's ten points to Gryffindor." The commentator stated.

Glenn smirked broadly at Miller. The Ravenclaw pretended not to be shocked by Glenn's tactic and muttered excuses about why it wasn't his fault.

"Well done, Rosewood." Oliver complimented. "Figure you would be able to fool Miller."

"He's a fool." He said. "Which is a shame. If his incompetnece weren't in the way the game would be more interesting."
