Immediately the concept of the reptilian overlords come to mind, the lions are the predator in the savannah, and also the leaders. Are they teaching us to metaphorically give our lives to the royals or that the royals plan to eat us, so long as we stay in the ‘light’, or are they saying that the lions are the equivalent of the Pleiadians and they look after us so long as we stay in the ‘light’, but if we enter the darkness and stray from our destined path we will end up with evil tyrannical rulers.
Jack DevaneyPublished 4 years ago in Geeks"The Brothers Karamazov" by Fyodor Dostoevsky
I first read “The Brothers Karamazov” by Fyodor Dostoevsky when I was about fourteen years’ old and I’m not going to lie to you, it confused me. It confused me because it was unlike any other Russian novel I had read up to that point and I realised then that things were about to get ever more interesting on my journey in literature. The way in which I discovered this book wasn’t actually at all that interesting. I had heard of it because I had seen the classic movie poster and thought it was a book cover. I looked it up and I got turned towards the book rather than the film (I would only realise some years later that it was actually a film poster I was looking at and not a book cover). I did not yet know, looking at that picture, that this book would come to change everything about my perception of Russian Literature and my perception on the possibilities of human connections in literature. It was almost overwhelming.
Annie KapurPublished 4 years ago in GeeksThree Underrated Anime Series Worth Watching
I watch a lot of anime. It's a diverse genre with many different art forms, covering just about every kind of story that people have conceived, from comedy and slice of life, to psychological horror. Anime isn't just for children. Indeed, many anime, including some very interesting, though quite disturbing, horror shows, would probably leave a child scarred.

We all know that our parents give us advice to help and guide us, and that they have our best interests at heart. That doesn't always mean that they're right, or that we agree with their way of thinking. Living up to the expectations of your family isn't always easy either. Here's a list of ten Disney characters who went against what their parents wanted from them.
Tone BreistrandPublished 4 years ago in GeeksTop 3 Underrated TV Shows
3. Lucifer (2016-Present) Tom Ellis in Lucifer Season 4 Well... if this photo of Tom Ellis from Lucifer Season 4 doesn't make you want to watch it... I don't know what will. On the other hand, I am putting Lucifer at number 3 on this list. Although it was most watched TV show in the US in 2019 (for obvious reasons^), it was not well advertised in other parts of the world. Lucifer is a show based around the devil himself, or 'Lucifer Morningstar', a nightclub owner who he portrays when he decides to leave Hell for Los Angeles. He also decides he wants to be a police informant and take criminal matters into his own hand and punish wrong-doers as he would in Hell, well because he is the DEVIL. The Devil, Nightclub Owner, Police Informant... what could go wrong? You would have to watch and find out for yourself to answer to that question. From Season 1 all the way to Season 4, Lucifer is filled with twists and turns as more of Lucifer's 'family' start making an appearance on Earth instead of being in Heaven or Hell. Not only that, Lucifer is a notorious playboy and loves to sleep around but throughout the show develops strong feelings for his 'partner', detective Chloe Decker of the LAPD, who if you saw her yourself you would fall in love with as well. But wait... there's more! Due to COVID-19, Lucifer season 5 has stopped final production but will still be released towards the end of the year... and that's not all! The show was supposed to have stopped at season 5, but Tom Ellis and supporting staff have reportedly signed on for a 6th season due to the ratings and critically acclaimed 4th season, which in fact does keep you guessing every second. So... if you're after immature comedy, love, sex, alcohol, partying, crime-solving, heaven and hell, Lucifer is definitely the show for you.
Stefan KulasPublished 4 years ago in GeeksMy Review of "Captain Courageous (1996)"
Captain Courageous is a movie that I have never heard of. Netflix has had a good batting average with me so I thought I'd check it out. What I experienced from this movie was nothing more than a cookie cutter low budget movie. There's elements of entertainment but for the most part it wasn't that great a ride.

Ema KravanjaPublished 4 years ago in Geeks10 Memorable Clown Moments in Movies and TV (1932-1989)
Most Popular Clown Movies and TV Shows (1932-1989) 1. Freaks (1932) There's debate over whether Tod Browning's Freaks is horror or drama. One thing we do know, though: It's got a clown in it. Despite the film focusing largely on characters with birth defects of various kinds, Phroso the clown (Wallace Ford) is considerably more average. He relies on traditional clown gimmicks in his actions throughout the movie. Though he's a relatively minor character, he is potentially memorable and sometimes even wise.
