response to The Legend of Zelda Timeline shifts.

The Legend of Zelda Timeline... Revealed? - Wii News at IGN

click link above if you'd like
 to know what i'm basing  this response on:


In terms of the paradigm of planes involving the legend of ZELDA, the one and only that seems to be latent, even to be the skeleton of the series is the one that follows scenario B. why? simple, it's the one that's subsequent of the actual events that transpired in front of the camera, monitor, video game's reality.
we the players, see it come true and, as a result of the physical final fight against GANON, the triumph, and ultimately LINK's physical reward given by zelda; although zelda's gift is a paradox on its own that raises many other questions; among many that may rise, we have the most important one that leaves us wondering even after the game ends:
was that what link's heart really desired? was that what zelda longed?
but the theory remains hypothetical, since scenario B deals with the actual physicality of Hyrule's own reality, which is what we. or at least, what NINTENDO allows us to see regardless of what we could've contemplated. the reward is of a physical nature: returning to link those lost 7 years, make him relieve and grow in his own pace and enjoy the skipped childhood life.
Scenarios A and C, without jumping too much into detail because all i want is to point which one is the skeleton, are more of an etherial even conditional fabric.
they failed to exist on its own without basing its foundation on a conditional time shift event. they are never presented, or at least so far to us the spectators, in any physical form like a video game or even a side story in its own universe. Both happen outside of what we witness or live through link. i might even dare to say that where scenario B is the physical form of zelda's reality, scenario A and C are like the soul and mind of it. they exist without a corporal script or manifesto. they are part of the universe that is shattered in different planes by the omnipresence of the WHAT IF.
Connected to OCARINA OF TIME, scenario A is the what if link would have never awaken from his slumber? what if ganon managed to create other realities to assure his own existence, given the abundance of his new godly powers: the piece of the triforce of power? what if ganon managed to destroy the temple of time, in order to never allow link's spirit to return?
In the same manner scenario C deals with the rhetoric idea of what if link, after saving hyrule and being rewarded by zelda, never returns to his actual time or space? what if he gets lost in the time continuum? what if link is returned to the kokiri forest and in fact manages to live a normal life unaware of the events that are happening outside?
therefore scenario A and C are existing in the same zelda universe, but in different planes respectively; they are the outcomes of different metaphysical occurrences, as in not inside or shown on any actual game. Scenario B becomes the actual solid link to the game's own and original reality before the disruption begins in Ocarina of time.

My top 10 bad news of the year

The year 2011 hasn't ended yet but so far, im able to name and point my 10 most disagreeable news of 2011. By all means, these topics provided discomfort and a certain level of awareness from my own subjectivity;they don't mean that they were the worst either:
The impending booming of the kardashian trash show. Needless to say, why do the world needs to make these women even richer than they already are for being nothing and doing nothing? It beats me why the world watches and follows the ecstatic and stagnant lives of these people.
The tyranny of apple. Scared of competition, apple put itself in bad eyes before countless of consumers over the year for its insanity to sue everything and everyone over trivial and generic details, and everyone that proved to be a rising competitor. Many speculated that its next target was gonna be mother nature for using a shape and name that they claimed invented, the apple.
Nintendo's void to maintain its hardcore fans satisfied. After years of top popularity and sales, Nintendo's wii begun to lose momentum and interest. Mostly based on its obsession to cater family casual gaming to the new masses that sought the wii as a good distraction. At the end, the distraction lasted for so long and the new masses moved on to the next big thing, xbox kinnect. The only people that stood by Nintendo are the hard core gamers that embraced the wii since its release date (where everyone else was still skeptical about the new motion control system.) unfortunately, those same people were the same ones that Nintendo neglected for so long. It added more fuel to the fire, when nintendo refused to bring more hard core games to the states, and the absence of its biggest promised stars.
The death of a rising old school soul muse, Amy whinehouse: her early departure brought grievance to many, to the music world in general. She opened up the door to many out of the main stream artists to pursue and stick to their individual styles and be honest to their music.
The beheaded of a Saudi woman that's accused of witchcraft: this one in particular provided such a level of shock for its archaic inhumane and not tolerable occurrence. How come there are governments that tolerate and even accept such acts? It doesn't matter what country or religion you're in people. How dare you accuse and execute someone with ridiculous charges of witchcraft? Would you have enjoyed being accused of the same chargers hundred years ago because your religion was not considered the religion of the catholic church? No. Now a day, it would've been a global genocide.
Pain on the rising sun land. It seems that Japan was the target of mayor disaster. The scope of the tragedy was not really even matched by the frequency of events that seemed to happen one after the other. Many even dare to say that the potent earthquake was no match for the amount of destruction that the following tsunami caused on the land; country side and small providences in particular were almost completely washed away by the waters of an invading sea. The pain of its people, specially the poor and working class had no rest. Houses, cars, and lives were lost in such a short time.
Occupy Wall street protesters martyrdom. What else can be said about this that the media hasn't covered crystal clear? The fact that the motivational movement inspired billions around the state to walk out and march for a good cause is not in question. What shattered many hearts and ideals was the witnessing of how authorities handled the peaceful protests was the shocking and almost disturbing factor.
The legacy of a publicly opened jerk, ill mannered individual, and that after death is turned into an iconic symbol for polishing and making more accessible a technology that already existed. I give him merits, but not to the point of making him a cultural icon. Specially if he had no recollection of helping back society or the less fortunate: not even going into detail for having complete knowledge of the hard labor imposed on young workers, children even, of his factories in Asia.
The many misfired theories of the end of the world: this year was marked with several false or over indulged prophecies regarding the arrival of the apocalypse. From the internet to Mayan's calendar, people have gathered theories that involved a numeric sequence that's mathematically readen that predicts the exact day and time of the upcoming doom. I seriously do not know about that one, since the man formulating these hypothesis have missed multiple times on his own predictions or frantic fanaticism. The calendar mayan on the other hand, it evokes a certain level of curiosity that leaves you thinking.
Two very close tragic losses. One of a relative that left in pain and mourn a beloved cousin and her three children. then shortly after, the sad death of a former coworker that was a given time a great and close friend. It is sad to see young people leaving this world in abrupt manners, but it is even heart breaking to let them go. Cheers to you pastor and you beloved bailey. Always Hoping that the new year brings to all loved ones and friends more joy than pain.

From MY WEEK WITH MARILYN

What we get, it's a subtle and heart felt genuine non sexual affair that reaches the borders of innocence. Sex is an idea not a fact outside the camera: sensuality is at every corner, but the notion of sexuality is an abstract submerged in an alluring and beautiful portrait.
Eddie redmayne plays Colin clark, the protagonist, whose perspective gives a fair amount of highlights during his employment in the production of the british film THE PRINCE AND THE SHOWGIRL; which is always the case of subjective stories to retell experiences that are seen through the own narrator's point of view. In most cases, those stories are always tainted or colored by the narrator's memories. We don't get the details or most intimate bits: the narrative at points seems to play in colin's own favor, and some parts are as credible as filling in the blanks of a quasi surreal nonfictional story. Nevertheless, the ambience of the film is inviting and relevant on every turn due to the amazing acting of Michelle Williams, redmayne, and a prominent supporting role by Judy dench.
My week with marilyn prevails as a coming of age experience. Its richness in characters adds color to a would be sad fairy tale. By any means, the film is far from being a sad/moody affair. It's in fact full of laughs and radiance. The characters are sympathetic and nonlinear.
It's always a joy to see the amazing one on one scenes between marilyn and colin that one only wishes that their one week affair could've turned diffrently in real life. There's a certain level of sadness that springs from the realisation of what comes next historically speaking for each character. The film wastes no time in telling us their outcomes, except from a couple of text descriptions, cause it emphasizes on what was hidden inside the pages of a young Colin's journal.
Michelle Williams gives shine to the character like no other could've had: her performance is astounding and simply mesmerizing in a way that flashes a spell on you and makes you relieve Marilyn again. Ebert suggests that the film is a homage to what Marilyn Monroe was and continues to signify: a devotion of a peculiar admiration for beauty, sensuality, sex appeal and innocence that altogether equal Marilyn Monroe, the icon.
If this is what Simon Curtis, director, was going for, then it remarkably triumphed. It's a story of a young man tackling his dreams that by chance meets and shares an unforgettable week with Ms Monroe. He shares with the public a glimpse of a juxtaposed woman that stole breaths away publicly as the most famous bombshell of the 1950s, and yet it yielded frailty and a charming child like innocence up close that only few were aware of.
