Myths and Monsters

Stumbled on this series on Netflix. First episode covers the "Heroes Journey" by Campbell quite well and touches on its influence on Lucas in "A New Hope". Enjoy.

I saw that. It tied in pretty close to that section of the IP. Unfortunately I stumbled upon this a week after I had already submitted my journal entry on "the hero's journey"

Not to worry, Joseph. The Hero's Journey will likely be a recurring theme throughout your studies here. My own copy of "Hero With a Thousand Faces" by Campbell is full of highlighter, notes, and dogged eared pages at this point :laugh:. I just can't get enough of the wisdom he has to share!

Didn't I recommend this in another thread? I told you guys it was good, another person confirming it!!! Watch if you have Netflix, seriously

Might give this a spin when I get back from vacation.

This series was pretty good, overall, though also very basic. I liked it because it had a couple of myths I hadn't heard before, and some of the artwork was fun; it was totally worth having it on in the background while I did knitting.

I'd love to find more series' dealing with mythology. Cosmos, but for mythology?
