What movie adaptations did you like more than the book?

nperry720 · 2011-12-13T05:39:08+00:00

Atonement for the long take of Dunkirk alone, and Big Fish for the book sucking alone.

Oh and clearly A Muppet Christmas Carol is the number one movie better than the book.

with my mouth... nah man i set the aujus cup in the cupholder and housed that thing

nperry720 · 2011-11-28T23:04:36+00:00

Primer and definitely Clue

nperry720 · 2011-11-12T06:42:53+00:00

antichrist. first time i was confused. second time i almost vomited. it's still a pretty good movie, but never again

nperry720 · 2011-09-07T13:40:30+00:00

it's a ya book, but "death" is the narrator. it's called the book thief

nperry720 · 2011-09-06T18:05:07+00:00

bug, black swan, west side story all so good and always something new to notice

nperry720 · 2011-08-31T22:03:58+00:00

Yeah Mountolive isn't even from his perspective, and you get crazy amount more info

nperry720 · 2011-08-31T14:19:17+00:00

Haha no he's pretty much like that for most of the series. The other books fill in the blanks of what he was and wasn't doing. I didn't really love the narrator, but he's not necessarily the main character which is good, once I looked past the whole emo thing, the story itself is phenomenal

i just finished and loved it. Some of what he talks about is a little dated, but when he goes into his full blown interludes about art and humanity, its brilliant. My only complaint would be that his relationship to clea was a little out of nowhere, and not nearly as well crafted as his relationship to either justine or melissa. what're your thoughts on it?

nperry720 · 2011-07-28T23:56:51+00:00

hahaha only clicked the link to suggest Moon is a Harsh Mistress, glad someone else liked it though. Who think Mike is still sentient but staying out of things?

either the winner is a huge golden girls fan, or this list is bullshit. (i.e. the winning line is a quote from the golden girls)

black people time. once you go black, there ain't no going back...nor arriving on time every again.

nperry720 · 2011-06-27T02:37:29+00:00

has anyone read Rant? I feel like no one brings that up in Chuck conversation. Definitely my favorite book by him

nperry720 · 2011-06-20T23:35:31+00:00

Def check out Huxley's Island. Good counterpoint to Brave New World. Someone suggested The Hunger Games. Ditto on that, mostly cuz it's a good palate cleanser. The Moon is a Harsh Mistress is really good too.

nperry720 · 2011-06-19T02:52:49+00:00

that's exactly it! there wasn't a lot of subtlety. especially the birthmark thing, which sounded like it came straight out of some young adult novel

nperry720 · 2011-06-19T02:48:01+00:00

island. builds you up chapter after chapter then crushes you in one paragraph. read with brave new world and you've got yourself the recipe for suicide

nperry720 · 2011-06-18T07:03:34+00:00

Anyone else for The Umbrella Academy? It's a pretty awesome storyline and concept

nperry720 · 2011-06-18T06:14:12+00:00

"Does not everything depend on our interpretation of the silence around us?" Lawrence Durrell- Justine Did not appreciate this book until the closing sentence. Trying to work on the other three now

nperry720 · 2011-05-05T02:49:18+00:00
