informal poll for you guys. if you had to choose, is this place more like:

a) fantasia, from the neverending story
b) oz, from the wizard of oz
c) wherever the hell it was with the muppets and stuff, from labyrinth
d) wonderland, from alice in wonderland

[ The question might seem like a frivolous one, but the answers should actually be pretty informative, and it's way more fun than just asking people to describe what this place is really like. ]

All of those are gonna go over a lot of people's heads. We're not all from Earth, my dude.

I fear I only know two out of the four.

Perhaps I am missing out on the correct answer.

So like. Only old people movies?

[ His dad would fit right in. ]

Are you familiar with a show called Sliders?

C

If C also included a breakdown of the multiverse? We're all Sarah.

I'm gonna go with Oz, but I'm still waiting for my ruby slippers.

I've never heard of any of them.

i'll be joining the sad, sorry lot of folks who haven't the foggiest, i'm afraid. quick summary for the woefully uneducated? :)

If I had to take a guess based just on what I've seen with the ongoing festival, I would have to say d. It's something of a wonderland, with magic that no one can explain. I already want to start a mad tea party for everyone to attend, fufu. ♪

Do we get to vote for other places we've been? I'm afraid I'm too new to this moon to have a firm opinion.

( he doesn't know all the movies in question, but since there's been a whole chiming in from people, well. not really necessary to add in, is it? )

I mean, the festivals are definitely Mad Hatter level - classic storybook Mad Hatter, not the Mad Hatter I know, thank god - but I think there's some shading of option C as well. I never actually watched option A because the neverending bit kind of terrified me.

Haven't come across any Oz parts yet, but I'll let you know when I get sparkly red shoes and yellow bricks to skip on.

100% labyrinthe my guy.
on that note, have you seen a bowie looking guy looking to steal some babies and marry a teenager?

i'm a little disappointed in the lack of sci fi representation.

[ He was right there with y'all on the pop culture references and making light of circumstances that are stranger than fiction, up until he had a glance over someone's theory that this might be an elaborate, uh, breeding program. Yikes.

Joke's on somebody; in some cases, a resounding lack of interest isn't the only hurdle, but sheer incompatibility. Feeling rather let off the hook, he's glad to consider this Not His Problem and get back to the real point of reading this:

Besides, uh, scoping out how many of these guys might actually be humans from his own world, and who are from somewhere a bit far outside the planetary post code.

That's more exciting than anything else. ]

i dunno about you, pal,
but some of these responses seem to be tellin' me one thing:

movie night.

[ What, no helpful speculation about their circumstances?

Nah, other folks got that covered. ]

*Chandra is doing better at this whole camera thing, more of her face is in view as she answers in video because text seems so informal.*

I have no idea what those places are, have you really been to all of them?

*Chandra doesn't really get fiction, that involves reading and she doesn't do a lot of that.*

This place is like any other big city, less magic, more technology. But it has all the stuff you find.

Oz. There's a man behind the curtain.

Put me down for Labyrinth, although I really think you oughta aim for more sci-fi than fantasy.
