CJ and I are coining this new neologism.
Mythotopical
Adjective
- referring to the confluence of current events with events, creatures or symbols of mythological origins.
- referring to a creamy medication, possibly mythical or magical, which when applied to the skin, counteracts the effects of curses or bad sci-fi/fantasy media.
An example from our TV viewing this afternoon, that satisfies both definitions: SciFi channel's Manticore
During Operation Iraqi Freedom, a US Army Squad is sent to a small Iraqi town to locate a missing news crew, only to find the residents of the town dead and a living Weapon of Mass Destruction, a Manticore, awaken from it's long slumber by a terrorist leader wanting to rid his land of the American invaders at any price. - imdb.com
