Which Books Had The Most Impact On You?

Too right you are.

do you like reading stuff with a lot of philosophy and/or history? existing and not.

Yes, I'm in to both philosophy and history. I don't know what you mean by "existing and not."

fantasy like lotr. realistic (existing), stories based on real events in history. like pearl habor and some wars.

Oh, actual history and fictional history. Definitely real history and some fake history, such as Star Wars and Terminator. LotR is interesting but I haven't seen all the movies yet nor read the books. You can always check my personal information to find out more about me.

how about lxg and the last samurai? there's a book based on the movie and also there's a book that was written by helen dewitt. (i think that's her name...)

Sorry, don't know anything about The Last Samurai or lxg, whatever that is.

lxg, i've only seen the movie. it has classic characters of literature from the 1800's or so. for example: rodney skinner, mina harker, dr. jekyll/mr. hyde, dorian grey, etc. they saved the world with their unique knowledge and powers. the last samurai, never read the book by that lady. but i want to get it!

Is LXG the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen? That movie looked kind of dumb to me. How do you like it Bop?

i liked the movie, but it could use some improvement. but not by australlians adding all these aussie actors. anyways, i think people would like the graphic novel better.

the belljar

hey scorchy! what's that book about?

writer86: there's news or rumours that aussie's want to make next lxg movie. i'm not happy with what i heard about that....

Isn't Sean Connery in that film? Which character was he?

he was allan quartermain, the leader of the league. although it was mina who was leader in the graphic novels, from what i read about lxg.

So LXG was a novel before a movie?

graphic novel, more say. by allan moore.

i think it's supposed to be an autobiographical account of her life... it follows the story of a young college girl who goes insane... quite depressing, really

that's sad. do you always read or like depressing stories or one's that deal with going to college?

it was for a class... i don't enjoy reading depressing stories cuz they remind me too much of me, but this one stuck out. i liked it a lot.
