About 'Dream of a Thousand Cats':
Late one night, a Siamese cat holds a gathering of other cats to tell her story about her encounter with Morpheus. The cat dreamed of meeting Morpheus, in the form of a black cat, and begged him for a solution. Morpheus presented her with a parallel universe in which cats were the dominant species over humans until they fought back by dreaming, turning them into the cats mankind sees them as they are today. Upon finishing her story, the Siamese cat urges the other cats to perform the same enlightenment to which they will reclaim their status as the rulers of the earth.
About 'Calliope':
Struggling author Richard Madoc visits Erasmus Fry, an elderly former writer who has imprisoned a Greek muse named Calliope in his house. Fry transfers ownership of Calliope the Muse to Madoc, who discovers that he can take inspiration from her.
Calliope sends a desperate plea to Morpheus, her former husband, who she has not seen since the tragic death of their son Orpheus. Upon receiving her plea and learning of what has happened to her, Morpheus becomes enraged and confronts Madoc. When he refuses to release Calliope, Morpheus punishes Madoc with an uncontrollable stream of ideas.
Madoc soon frees Calliope, who asks Morpheus to lift his curse of Madoc. Morpheus lifts the curse of too many ideas, but Madoc finds himself unable to remember Calliope, Morpheus, or any of his ideas. Calliope vows to make sure what happened to her doesn't happen to anyone else. She and Morpheus share a tender goodbye with her expressing hope that sometime in the future, she can visit him in his realm and they'll be able to grieve their son properly.

The Broadway musical Hadestown does a great job of telling Orpheus’ story, so it was cool to hear the Neil Garman version!
Was really a good twist all of it in my opinion I like 2nd part in show mostly
Tom Sturridge as dream is perfect. He is absolutely terrifying and you feel his authority, as being a king. But you see so many layers he puts into the character and his development. Perfect cast choice.
This ^^ so much this
Yup. 💯. Lots of #BDE.
I also love how his delivery is slow and deliberate and kind of "sleepy" unless he's angry.
Man that bonus episode hit way harder than I expected, looking forward to the future of this show
I love this adaptation! This episode was great! I appreciate that the story of Calliope was not centered on her abuse but on her strength and dignity. Even with everything Ric did to her, he was the one who was portrayed as small and weak.
The depiction of both stories to me were spot on. Translated brilliantly and appropriately for television. If we do get more seasons, I wonder how they're going to do those conversations between Dream and Orpheus.... the whole Orpheus saga will be so interesting to watch.
I loved the chemistry between Tom and Melissanthi. Though a brief encounter, you feel the emotions and the love they had/ have for each other. Tom is just such an intense actor. He doesn't need to do much to display a huge array of emotions on his face.
I repeat, this was such a good episode of Sandman. It’s one of those things that you can rewatch multiple times. I really hope they green light the next season.
I would actually love a whole season of standalone episodes to be honest
I felt that the Kindly Ones were reassuring her with giving her a glimpse of his temple.
I guess I took ‘grieve’ to mean ‘discuss this like adults, & perhaps find a way to visit him and give him solace.’
But then I fully admit that is partly due to my need for poor Orpheus to find a way to finally live or die.
Great breakdown.
You can also grieve a person not dead, but in a state of having no meaningful life. A vegetative state, or in this case, only a head.
I kinda want an anthology series like this episode.
Just wanted to add a comment about the ending. The addition of the line from Calliope to Dream that she wants to "visit him in the Dreaming and mourn their son": for people completely unfamiliar with the comics it was brilliant way to foreshadow. In one line it told an entire story. (BTW I am totally obsessed now! I may be behind but after binging the entire series in 1 day I ordered the 1st 2 volumes of the comics from Amazon and cannot wait for them to arrive!)
This show has stayed so loyal to the source that I really doubt they would change up Orpheus’s story in such a major way.
You did pronounce Naxos correctly. Also I don't know if you noticed but Calliope is played by a Greek actress. It was a nice touch and a surprise that finally someone pronounced greek words and names correctly in a movie. Also "oneiro" means dream and Oneiros is referring to the Dream person
Loved this series! The extra episode was the icing.
Another great Bonus breakdown video of a bonus sandman episode! Much love your pal in the UK.
having read these issues countless times, I was so relieved about the way they shot certain key moments of "Calliope." that scratch does a lot of work, and I'm so grateful to not have to endure another onscreen R scene.
Yes, cats and dogs dream. They often kick and hunt in their dreams, sometimes even pur. Scientists have also recently discovered that spiders might dream as well.
I was referring to the ants :)
I’ve heard my cat talk in his sleep. So cute.
Love the comic, the show, and ur channel
I fell in love with this show it’s so deep and beautiful, this last episode was awesome 👏
Great run down of ep 11 my fave episode and thanx for the spoilers I so love ❤️
I did not spot that temple in the episode. Nice catch!
I really didnt notice that small background image, but the dome and the island is shown before the scene you mention, did you miss that? When Erasmus Fry and Richard Madoc are talking they stop for a couple seconds in front of a painting that show the structure, its a little different from the comic so I wasnt sure, but it is identical to the structure in the scene with the Fates, so now Im sure
the season was very good overall, despite a few uneven spots. but _calliope_ is one of the greatest adaptations put to screen
McAvoy has to play an alternate Dream in Oveture
good stuff, thx for sharing. Put vid on pause at title while I had to take care of something IRL... took me a minute to get the ref to "A Death of a Thousand Cuts." I did have the original prints but my ex cleaned out my library; she had a better library than me so went to good home.
David Tennant can be Loki again! 🤩
I think Tom and dream look so much alike. I think he is made for this roll.
I missed this last night (Early night for me!) I love your idea you said, doing the wedding, underworld in first half & Johanna Constantine's task in the second. Kind of like they did with Ep 6 this season. Another great breakdown video Boba, Much love your pal in the UK.
Just seen this! Thank you SO much!!!
Wasnt fortunate enough to read the comics but IM gonna buy the whole thing now. That was incredible. The stories were so great, it was everything I love in a show. Taking us for a wild ride
Michael sheen as puck please. "Oh what fools these mortals be!"
Boba I watched this again and I thought maybe you can do rewatches of best Dr who episodes in the live stream then we all can chat about it. Love your videos you're my favorite youtuber at the moment and I just love your way of thinking man you so good keep going brother
You are probably going to make another update on The Sandman how Neil Gaiman said on twitter that despite the show has done well on Netflix... it is not a guarantee for a season 2... the show is apparently pretty expensive to make and that could factor into the development of future seasons if approved.
Thanks for the info, it was the best I saw of the 5 I've watched, better written and had a bigger emotional impact. The acting is always very good, the writing is often as well.
Thanks for the full breakdown. I was confused too about her line at the end and I'm sure he never told her, maybe to spare suffering...or maybe to spare himself more conflict. Can you imagine knowing that your son is half dead as a disembodied head and your husband never told you? I'm sure they'll explore in S2 or 3 and hope to see more of Dream and Calliope. Also, they'll want Jenna to come back very soon since she was in the press tours.
Btw...does Calliope knows that her son is a talking head in the comics? Because I cannot imagine a mother leaving her son in that state for millennia.
Thanks for watching! Yeah I mentioned towards the end that Calliope went to visit her son from time to time on Naxos which added to a bit of the speculation of her using the word "grieve" cos it could infer that she doesn't know in this version/adaptation perhaps. But she may very well know at the same time in this adaptation, but used the word anyway since they never processed what happened to him as a couple :)
What happen to their son? Where is he?
@@ayenyeinthu6071 If you know the myth of Orpheus you have a good idea.
Brilliant show, Boba always brings the best of the industry and shows
Holy crap that Easter egg!! I didn't realize it while watching this episode...that's major man! Makes sense they would show that mausoleum in thr background while the fates popped up. Ugh this show is so god damn good!
I was wondering when you would cover this episode.
The sandman is awesome I want more :))
Love sandman thanks
Easy David needs to come and play Loki in the next seasons. He voices him in the 2nd novel on Audible :D
I didn’t even know there was a bonus episode
I've seen a couple of Loki suggestions for David. If that doesn't work out, I think Puck would come a strong second.
Episode 6 and now Episode 11 is the MVP episodes. Story telling was just too good. I can't wait for more Episode or season 2. If they continue to do a great worth while story like this and more. I'm really invested. Will get the comic just for this.
I'm so glad they adapted Thousand Cats, as it is my favorite issue in the comics, I was really worried they wouldn't adapt it, but THEY DID.
I really love that story because religion is a huge part of my growing up, and I saw that as an analogy for religion. These religious people tell each other there is something afterlife, and if you do good you'll get great things in heaven and etc. Now if pursuing that wish fills them with hope and purpose, and in a way they are happier because of it, makes good and moral people out of them, so pursuing that, even if it never comes, may still be fulfilling. You may never get the destination you want but the journey to get there is arguably more important
Calliope was also really amazing.
Tell you honestly…im buying the comics…downloading the audibles and watching the series too many times…im so hooked lined and sinker of sandman…i love it❤❤❤…pretty much there’s a slight changes but still very true to the nature of the comics…the dialogues and snapshots…i cant wait for season two…
I love how the animation of dream of the thousand cats and calliope the intense emotion of both characters…no flowery words…not much physical actions but the delivery of words the depths…i felt it…my heart beating so fast…this is really the best adaptation ever…
I could totally see Reeve Carney being a kid from Dream and Calliope. (Where are my Hadestown fans at?)
This was so amazing. Loved the style of animation. It was like a painting. The Calliope episode was stirring in the best way. Fit the tone of the show and really entices me to see more. So many stories and types of people can seek out Dream. I love that you always feel you are in his world without him needing to be in every or most scenes
Bobatalks I liked the series overall, parts not as much but overall I enjoyed it! Thanks Boba!
Tennent: Lori
Sheen: Puck
McAvoy: Daniel-Dream
Michael sheen would be great as either destruction or Orpheus
So this is where Rip Hunter went to... he became a struggling writer
The cats was hit or miss to me probably because I’m a dog person. Didn’t love it didn’t hate it. But the second half of the episode was Brilliant! Had no idea it was coming, a total treat and loved all the comic references. You can really tell how much involvement Neil G. Had
Me too I love dogs too no offense to cats people
@@miyatadeen7593 haha i know right. We can’t offend the internet cat people 😂
@@FrankM812 exactly true lol
Can you breakdown every episode? I havent read the comics, i dont know who some of the characters is, like the girl constaintane, is she related to john? ik john is in the comics but i dont know who he is
He did whole video like a breakdown of the season
There exists a SUPURB podcast called “the Dreaming” from Mote of Dust, it explains EVERYTHING.
so technically I'm not done with episode 11 yet... nor am I watching this video yet... but the story the siamese told about her past... animated or live action... I cried for that siamese
this is why I will always defend animals first, humans second.... animals have their set path, we have that choice... so when we choose to be cruel and apathetic... it just drives me more and more to this mindset
comment section... don't crictize me, don't mock me, let me have my opinion and move on with your day
I agree to a certain point. Sometimes animals rob us from a choice in order to human preserve life. For example black bears comes into my house and traps us upstairs. I also cried and hated the Siamese cat’s owners in The Dream of a Thousand Cats. The second story was excellent and done in a tasteful way. I read the graphic novels so I was on the fence on watching it knowing a scene that could be shown, but I was really happy how they told the tale to a newer audience.
@@kt-4383 I listened/watched the comics through dannymalt..... but yeah I loved the calliope part....
I just hate humans when they hurt something so innocent
It's the reason I can't watch it right now. I'll wait until I am in a better emotional place.
I would love to see David tenant play destiny in sandman
Oh so Orpheus's story is like the story of Izanagi and Izanami??
In what is this at?
Chekhov's armies and armories.
I got a question.. Did anyone else think that "The Dreaming" that the Cat was in looks awfully similar to "Hell" that Dream had to go through before. Plus "The King of Cats" had golden eyes. It all gave me the vibe like Lucifer was impersonating Dream to make some chaos in the mortal world using cats, but he never really calls himself Dream so he never directly lies, I seem to remember that even though he deceives he never really lies directly.
I'm so confused, so what is the end end of Season 1? was it "Lost Hearts" which does make sense. Or was the end end of Season 1 "A Dream of a Thousand Cats / Calliope" which makes absolutely no sense to the over all story of Season. I which "Calliope" was part of the main season
David tenant as loki right now!
huh
@@ally88350 David resembles Loki the way as illustrated in the comics. Look up "The Kindly Ones" for reference.
Also, I was looking for this comment cos I completely agre!!!
the ants have already taken over while most of us haven't been paying attention. are they not the most successful life form on earth? i have often wondered about that hive mind thing, maybe they can dream even if the single ant cannot. perhaps we should be looking to find out, the dolphins are clearly not talking with us.
the way they had not one, not two, but FOUR doctor who actors in these eps: David Tennant, Georgia Tennant, Arthur Darvil, and Derek Jacobi !
Is it Kassandra from Assassin's creed Oddysey, or am I imagine things:D
Would have been more amusing had Tom Sturridge's ex-girlfriend Sienna Miller got cast for Calliope. We could have seen their chemistry on screen.
🤣
I think they would be very uncomfortable on screen. Not a good idea.
When I saw this 11th episode I totally don't see the link with the 10 other episodes. I thought: Why did they do this episode? What is the link with the others? Why are there 2 parts?!
🤔🤨🙄😶
The most used words in this season is ... Perhaps..... Can't wait for the next used words in season 2
Gaimam love his mythology Greek viking
Now that I think about it, I think David Tennant could have been a good Corinthian.
Damn I came here to know what was the deal with the old mans book and I still don’t know
What had happened between lord Morpheus and his wife? Why did she left morpheus?
👍🏽
Would Calliope vacation on Themescira?
Okay, spoiler about Orpheus.
When Orpheus goes to see Aunty Death, she warns him that the only way he can enter Hades is if she promised to not "take" him. In other words, the only way Orpheus could die, should she make the agreement, would be for Dream to kill him, as the parent who is of the Endless. Orpheus, desperate to get his beloved back, agreed. That's how Orpheus can enter to travel to Hades and also exit.
I did not realize David Tennant was voicing the first half... cool
Michael Sheen has major #BDE.
Orr orpheus not morpheous
Season 2 episode 7
Eh?
I have zero knowledge of the source material, so I speak only as someone who has seen the Netflix series. For me, the sets and story were excellent, and the cast was for the most part pretty good...except for Tom Sturridge! I didn't get any sense of power or regality from him. To me, his voice sounds wimpy! Compare the depth of his low-spoken voice with that of David Thewlis (John Dee/Doctor Destiny). Thewlis is a brilliant actor and when he speaks under his breath, you can hear the menace, you can hear the power, Sturridge just sounds weak and warbling. (It reminded me of Noel Fielding's character in The IT Crowd, a comedy!)
I think the British actors, in particular, were top-notch, Thewlis, Dance, Howel-Baptiste, to name abut a few, and I would love to see Olivia Colman in there. There must be a meaty role for her!
Kinda agree with you, I feel like he had potential but also gives me twilight vibes 🤢. Bit over skinny broody tall white dark haired men who can't emote or communicate 😒
Michael Sheen's character here is worse than Michael Sheen's character in the audiobook argue with the wall
david tennant can be god
So what was the purpose of the cats and calliope( didn't have time to watch your whole video)
Didn’t mind the first part but was an ehh was intrigued with it was more interested with the 2nd half some of this part remind me more about legends of tomorrow because the dude look like rip hunter and also the muse remind me of legacies in my opinion but the twist that her and dream is are husband and wife I was one intrigued and more confused how that’s??? lol???
forget the cats. it's not about the cats. it's about the power of dreams and the powers of dream (morpheus). it's expanding the lore of dream's abilities right under our noses
@UCy902iozGFVXyQSC1kCAUlg oh ok I wasn’t really thinking that but that sounds so intriguing and powerful and inspiring to know
Is it me or is he mixing up names
Nope, Orpheus is another character
@@BobaTalks gotya realised but he talked too fast si even when i realised i had to say huh to get it plus only saw up to ten episodes. Where did this 11 one spring from. Da. Amazed that the same writer did american gods. Wasnt sandman vertigo comics at first
Night of a Thousand Cats was absolutely AWESOME. Calliope was meh. The acting was fine but the pacing/editing and a lot of unwarranted cringe woke dialogue ruined it for me.
Tbh I was bored in Episode 11th
This programme is Terrible!
Watch Mario then
I hate Desire so much. Fuck all desires. Mine ESPECIALLY included.
