William Butler Yeats - The Second Coming
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi
Troubles my sight: a wa...
'Tis the season
"Natal oh oh oh Feliz Para Todos"
Porque não há nada de mais pessoal que eu possa oferecer do que oferecer-me nisto.

A Lady of a Certain Age
Back in the day you had been part of the smart set
You'd holidayed with kings, dined out with starlets
From London to New York, Cap Ferrat to Capri
In perfume by Chanel and clothes by Givenchy
You sipped camparis with David and Peter
At Noel's parties by Lake Geneva
Scaling the dizzy heights of high society
Armed only with a cheque-book and a family tree
You chased the sun around the Cote d'Azur
Until the light of youth became obscured
And left you on your own and in the shade
An English lady of a...

Que força é esta?
Estreia hoje aquele filme-cujo-nome-não-vale-a-pena-dizerporque está em todo o lado. Todos os anos, contudo, dou um par de aulas no ISCTE debaixo do título esotérico "Narrativas Digitais e Entretenimento Transmedia" e um dos temas que abordo precisamente é o das franchises que dominam o mundo do audiovisual em geral e o do cinema em particular. Escolhi, aliás, para nome das ditas aulas, este ano, "A Tale of Many Franchises".
A paráfrasede Dickens, é propositada:
It was the best of times, it...
