Q u o t e:
And I think you hit the nail on the head, Brugh. She draws the reader in and grows up with them throughout the stories. She always said she was aiming for kids about the age of the characters.
Harry Potter makes me happy. :P
If nothing else, even if you dislike the whole franchise, getting kids interested in reading is one of the greatest and more important accomplishments of that series. Heck, getting many adults to read is wonderful too.
I love the book series, I'll refrain from giving any opinions on the movies in blue. :D

Q u o t e:
Heya cutie!!
The movies are what they are. I, personally, have enjoyed them. but only after convincing myself that they're not really related to the books. There just isn't any way to capture the books into a film that people will go see. :P
Hai! <3
I don't know, I think Peter Jackson did a fantastic job of translating Lord of the Rings into movie form. Though they weren't identical to the books, they changed a bit here and there and left out large sections of the story, the essence of the characters and journey was there for me.

Q u o t e:
Speaking of books, anyone going to get the new Dan Brown book?
Probably.
If only because I'm starting to run out of things to read again... I picked up War and Peace simply because I haven't had a chance to read it. I'll most likely start reading it next week. =P

Q u o t e:
Um, you're asking the person with a collection similar to yours (i.e. still have some sitting in their wrappers)... I have Fight Club sitting on my desk right now. I'm really tempted to watch it. I love that movie.
I just picked up the director's cut of Watchmen and received Momma Mia in the mail. :D
#103 - Sept. 16, 2009, 3:56 a.m.
Q u o t e:
Mamma... Mia... the musical?
/spank
What? I missed seeing the musical on stage so this is the next best thing. It was supposed to be really good.
#106 - Sept. 16, 2009, 4:04 a.m.
Q u o t e:
It is.
Its a fun movie
WHAT??
Don't judge me!
A good show is a good show no matter what. :D
Q u o t e:
It is!!!
Oh and does the directors cut of Watchmen have the Pirate comic woven into the movie or is that only the one they are releasing in Dec.?
I don't know yet. There are 24 minutes added so my guess is that at least some of it may be there. I mean they were pretty true to the graphic novel, except for the end. O.o But the results were the same I guess.

I am currently Watching Fringe, and am looking for a place to download the full series of Life, (which isn't being shown in Lil ol' NZ)
Doesn't the new season start this Thursday (Fringe)?
And I loved Life.

Thanks for putting a Blizz tag next to all but one of the threads on the first page... now the rest of us have nothing to reply to. I hope you're happy now. :(
Seriously, though. Way to be on top of things. :D
We're certainly stronger with your assistance, though, and thank you all dearly for it. :)

Just a quick hallo before work. I wish I had more time to read and ramble, but . . . well, I just wanted to bask in the happy that is CSF-OT before going back to the salt mines. Hope everyone is well. I will try and pop back in during break.
*waves* Have fun, Betha!
Q u o t e:
Vrak, you don't work on Saturday. That makes me depressed... Since its "talk like we normally do" day.
If I'm not terribly busy on Saturday perhaps I'll stop by. :D

You mean I'd have to put up with you four days out of the week!? I don't know if I can handle that...
#355 - Sept. 17, 2009, 4:54 a.m.
Q u o t e:
Wait you actually work four days a week?!?
Five, actually. =P
#370 - Sept. 17, 2009, 5:11 a.m.
Q u o t e:
vrak...what happened to the custom sigs you guys used to have?
They were replaced with information to help prevent confusion as to who we are. :)
#375 - Sept. 17, 2009, 5:18 a.m.
Q u o t e:He means to clarify who we are as Blizzard Employees (e.g. Game Masters). ^_^
I think the blue post,custom avatar,no report button,and no ignore feature tip them off nicely =P

Q u o t e:
Vrak what are you going to do when the expansion is released? Your avatars background will be out of date.
Hmm, I wonder if I could bring the artists some cookies to update it. :D
#417 - Sept. 17, 2009, 7:21 a.m.
Q u o t e:
Oh! Good point! Do GMs ever get completely new avatars?
Not that I'm aware of, though I don't know if I'd want to part with mine. Who knows if they will render my flies the same way? What if R is more R/O? That wouldn't be good.

I can't win. As a young girl, I used to get in trouble from my Dad for not eating my peas. Now that he grows them himself, I get in trouble for eating them as I shell them... :P
