Connection 7

I will connect the end of the book Sophie's World to South Park Imaginationland.

The End of the book and leading up to it was full of imaginary characters and romantic irony. It talks about how once something is imagined then it lives on its own, or if an idea is created, it grows on its own. The south park episode is about another world that is filled with all the good and bad thing that anyone anywhere is imagined. People find a way in and they start to try and draw conclusions over what is real and what is imaginary, talking about how you can qualify if something is real or not, just like Sophie. The government decides they have to nuke our imagination because terrorists are taking it over and since its not real, they don't need permission from congress. I feel like this would be like Albert ending the book. Like he is ending the creation but it lives on no matter what since someone imagined it. By the end of the south park they accidentily nuke the imaginationland but someone (butters) imagines everything all back since it never disappeared, like sophie moving into the spirit world.

What i thought about the ending

Well the ending to Sophie's world kind of split me. I liked it because it was unique, there was a twist, and it was original. I didn't like it because it made the entire book pointless and none of it happened. It was like there was no story and the book was written so that the author could write a philosophy text book without it being a textbook. You have to admire the author though for trying to write an informational book while trying to make it interesting with our generation of digital zombies, but a well crafted ending goes a long way. The ending kind of made me angry like wow the characters don't exist and this is not possible. Even with the philosophy its hard to believe in a spirit world where all the fictional novel characters go to live. Its like Imaginationland (read connection). Anyways the ending was good and bad, it left a bad taste in your mouth but was good while you ate it, if that makes any sense

6 looks like b, b is for band which CONNECTS THINGS

Romanticism, strong ties to folklore, traditional language, nature, and customs. The movie Gangs of New York reminds of some of these things with its strong social differences and nativism. the irish in the movie were more or less the romantics. though nature was never a big thing, they stuck together based on language, customs, and tradition. The irish fought the "native" americans whose customs were, we were born in America, hate everybody who wasn't. Not very romantic. A "natury" love like romanticism can be seen in AVATAR. Though it is a repoff and special effects remake of another bad movie, dances with wolves (goodfellas was better), it is a VERY romantic movie. Screw industry, screw development, and no expansion and hostile takeover. The movie's soul is about nature's soul. Its basically propaganda about how nature is more important than anything else because it provides for us so we should provide back. The movie also has ties to traditional customs with the Na'vi (native americans) trying to keep their land and customs while the white man tries to steel the UNOBTAINium. Possibly the most romantic movie ever.

iiF ii WaaS SooPHiiee SiiiiiiiiXXX

Im crazy yay. The definition of romantic irony is staring me in the face and my forehead cool with a chilling sweat. Why is aladdin in my life with his Jeenie buddy telling me that its a new paragraph. My childhood winnie the pooh came to say hello and deliver a package. I can't be in a book because i have physical realities, or do i. i am not controlling anything that is happening to me, everything seems to be planned out and created for me. Maybe this is god watching over me, or a vivid dream that only seems like days because its a dream. When i wake up, i will have forgotten the first "months" of the dream and hopefully ill see a philosophy book on my chest which explains the dream. but no, im in a book. Damn. Please don't stop writing, i can't do anything to reach you and i can't really accept the fact that im being written into existence. This philosophy is controlling my life and every new philosopher and his views changes my life. Im not just in a book, im in a damn informational novel that tells facts, this sucks. Why do i read the letters about philosophers in clear detail and why im a so interested in these biographies of old thinking geezerz. BECAUSE IM IN A PBS SPECIAL BOOK NOOOO. hopefully you'll end the book with a "and sophie went on living happily with friends and family for another 100 years". that would be great

V for V(c)onnections

The current chapters are showing Sophie that her world is not real, but i tlies in the pages of a book, and if the pages stop turning, her world ceases to exist. This is a lot like the Man watching the shadows on the wall of a cave scenario, which is represented well in Source Code and Fight Club. In source code, the main character, like sophie, constantly receives clues that his real is some sort of altered state. When he finds clues, his world bends into a wider area, opening his mind. Sophie just sees things like characters from other fictional writings appear and characters exclaiming a change in page, paragraph, or chapter. In Fight Club, the main character has created a 2nd personality in order to live a life he wishes he could, a free life of mayhem and destruction. But he does not know that another world inside his mind exists, like that of Hilde or Sophie. Hilde is like "the narrator" in Fight Club. He sees his 2nd persona who does not exist and they live very similar lives. Sophie is Tyler Durden. The mode up person, living a life without rules, one lives without law and the other without any restrictions at all. Pretty similar since you could attach characteristics of their lives to both.

If i was Sophie. CHAPTER V

It sure sucks to be Sophie. Probably because at this point she is beginning to realize that she is not real. Or maybe it is ok to be Sophie since if you stop reading, she does not exist so she has no feeling, which would mean i have no feeling since this is "if i was sophie". If i was her at this point, i would try and comprehend what is going on. There are fictional characters coming into my world and the laws of reality are being broken. There is something deeply wrong when a jeenie is telling me its a new paragraph. I would try and contact anyone who i believe is in the real world. Actually, if i had come to peace with the fact that i am in a book and if the reader stops reading then i stop existing, i would try as hard as i could, to make my life more interesting so that the reader would not stop reading. My only worry would be flashbacks and skipping ahead, or maybe the author wrote about my tragic death. I would have to buckle down and go HAM for a while to survive

connection Numba Fouuur

I will now relate the mediocre but cool looking movie Tron: legacy to Sophie's world. The new tron was a buit nerdy for me. Its about some old man's son going into a computer game and fighting it out, trying to find his father. I did not see the one in the 70s so every little kid who went to the PG action movie missed every plot point. But a connection is needed. Sophie is spending a lot of time learning about how scientific and natural rules and laws are not real and can be broken sense they don't really exist. This is from people like Descartes beliefs. The kid in Tron traveled through a little camera like thing into a computer, where all these "programs" had personalities and acted on basic free wil in their specific task. In other words, they fought eachother, and were not controlled when they fought. These breaks everything we know on science and Quantuem theory. It breaks our laws of Physics, you cna't just teleport somewhere, its like distroeying matter and creating it from nothering somewhere else. Descarets doubted evrything, he would have doubted those laws. Or its like Transformers 3, Dark of the Moon. In that movie, the final battle is abiout destroying pillars that are bring CYBERTON to earth, it came out of no where, and was destroyed into nothing. Desccartes would have been like, for sure, while everyone else is like, hey wait a sec- you can't just go ham and bring a planet thats impossible. HAM
