Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

You're just jealous that I get to eat her poop. Why are you always so jealous of me?
duh
Brandon Routh for Todd Ingram
oh wait
i have already written two blog posts about it because it is making me think so much

what is the antecedent for this
Antigone makes me think about things like why is Ismene such a whiny baby at first and then she tries to take credit and get punished later for something she didn't do

I'm joking by the way. I think you're swell enough.
Somebody said earlier that Antigone could continue without Antigone.
wait a minute...
that makes no sense. I think I'm just really tired.
Howard was a beefy motherfucker, but HP was one of those tall, lanky dudes. You know the kind: quick, springy, killer left jab.
That's a tough call, but I'd have to side with HP.
The play actually did continue without her, although not for long because her death is like the first domino that knocks the rest down, but it couldn't have gone without her from the beginning. I mean, it could, and that would be an interesting take, but it would deprive the audience of her unique perspective. You could argue that Kreon and the chorus were really the only necessary characters but the others give it depth that it would lack without them.

this one is from waaaaay back.
But anyway, I love this book, and it's a lot easier to read if you imagine Sean Connery as the main character (he played him in a bad movie adaptation). We studied this book last in a class on Gothic stories.
Antigone the character is just a caaaattaalllyyysssttt
the story's about Kreon and Kreon aaalllloooonnneee
if that were true then as previously stated, her presence would not be necessary, only a description of her actions
she also would not get to make a bunch of long speeches and go head-to-head with kreon over who is right
it's an unstoppable force meeting an immovable object
and kreon is the one who chickens out, but it's too late

and isn't she only in one scene with Kreon?
if someone chickens out then it isn't really "an unstoppable force meeting an immovable object"
because, you know
one either stopped or the other moved
she is in at least three scenes that i can think of without referring to the text
one with ismene, one with kreon, one with the chorus
and vann you are correct, so the interesting thing is that while antigone was convinced of her rightness and willing to die for it, kreon was not
making antigone the victor

but she dies
