exactly, Jilli! just like with my movie taste, it doesn't have to be award-winning greatness to get me to love it. it just has to be entertaining and these books certainly are.
I willingly watch
Queen of the Damned.
I giggle all the way through it, but I do own it on DVD.
question for you. did you love or hate Jacob?
I was ... exasperated by Jacob. Well, by his character archtype, I suppose. I thought he was okay.

I can't really say anything.
I willingly watch Judge Dredd. And while I do not own it on DVD YET, it's only a matter of time.

well...at least you don't hate him. that's an improvement. there are so few Jacob supporters.
Judge Dredd is underrated.
Cough.
Queen of the Damned, movie version, OTOH, is very pretty and makes me very angry. It's like a guide in how to heterosexualize yourself.
Err. Jilli's heard the rant. I'll stop.
Judge Dredd is underrated.
I DARE YOU to say that to Pete. I think you can guess his opinion about the movie.

Oh, it totally is. But still amusing!
Err. Jilli's heard the rant. I'll stop.
But I
like
the rant. It's fun.
The ones they picked were some of the most inarticulate Jello-headed bimbettes ever.
"I, like, like Edward because he's like...a vampire but not, you know, like, all vampire-like. And the love is so...love-ish and junk. It's AWESOME!"
Oh yeah. Those interviewees were some serious closed-head-injury cases.
Judge Dredd is underrated.
Cough.
I liked
Judge Dredd
! Also,
Demolition Man.
And I will admit an inordinate fondness for the silly Queen of the Damned movie.

I don't know - I think it's more a case of tween/teenager-dom. Lord knows I couldn't have been much more articulate at that age if I had been interviewed about something I really liked (and I liked some crap. Young Guns, I'm looking at you).

I love the book. Never seen the movie.
I don't think the book is quality *literature,* mind you; I just love it for all its bombastic crazy-ass excess.
Sort of like Moulin Rouge.
