Image
Welcome to the first #FanCastleSunday!  Today's spotlight is on  @tmithc_fanpage . It has been a pleasure interviewing everyone. If you'd like to be interviewed for a future #FanCastleSunday, drop me a line at mlcartthings@gmail.com , and I'll be happy to! And now without further ado....*drum roll*  It's Interview Time! @tmithc_fanpage The Man In The High Castle Humour and Discussion Tell the world a little bit about yourself! Well, I’m like every other ordinary human who gets by everyday and LOVED The Man in the High Castle! Hence why I created the page! One of the best decisions I ever made :) What drew you to Amazon’s the Man in the High Castle? When the show first came out I remember adverts coming up for it quite a lot (especially on my kindle I had at the time!) I didn’t think much of it but was always a little intrigued. Skip forward a couple of years and I began watching the period drama Victoria where I got to...

Fan Castle Sundays: A TMITHC Fan Celebration

Image
With November just over the horizon, Season 4 is inching closer and closer, which means that the end of the show will be here before we know it. I’ve met many wonderful people through TMITHC, fans just as dedicated as I am. I’ve made friends, I’ve laughed, and I’ve lamented over characters. I’ve even swapped things in the mail with friends across the pond! Truth be told, I don’t know what I’m going to do after Season 4. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: TMITHC has been a huge part of my life for the past couple of years. I look back at all mky Rufus Sewell drawings (ha, ha!), peg dolls, fake props, and Club High Castle and wonder what the hell am I going to do once it’s over? The thing is, fandoms last forever. TMITHC will never fade so long as we keep it alive. I’m going to Keep watching, keep creating, and keep making friends, which is why I’m going to put some of the fans in the spotlight! Join me this Sunday for the first ever #FanCastleSunday, a series of fan ...

Behind the Iron Eagle

This post was inspired by a conversation I had with @tmithc_fanpage and my amazing #HighCastle friends on Twitter. We were talking about the multiverse and coming up with different worlds. We wondered how many would show up in Season 4 and if there was one ruled by the Red Army. This reminded me of the alternate history novel I never finished where, you guessed it, the Red Army conquered most of the planet. Enjoy the first two chapters for a look inside an alternate reality! Just in case this needs to be said...This is not a political excerpt. It is pure fiction. That's it. :)    ------------------------------

The End of the Worlds: High Castle at SDCC19

 “The ending is epic, it is conclusive, yet ambiguous, and delicately done.” – Daniel Percival * They released a clip from the opening of Season 4, which you can watch here: I’m going to paraphrase the quotes from the panel that intrigued me the most, and then I’ll dive right into my thoughts. Here's the link to the recap video on the official @HighCastleAmazon Facebook page. “At one point we see Helen at her happiest. We see the true Helen.”  “As you know, Kido has a wife and two sons. We get to meet one of his sons briefly.”   “Before the war she and her family were in segregated Alabama. After the Axis won, they were sent to a labor camp which became an extermination camp. She escapes and flees to the neutral zone.” The official synopsis: In the climactic final season, America will witness rebellion on both coasts as Juliana and Wyatt join forces with an emerging Black insurgency led by Bell Mallory. Takeshi Kido will be forced to reckon with t...
