I liked the Hobbit, but found that the trilogy went better if I read about every third page...it seems like they walk faster that way.
Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Good strategy, but you're never going to learn Sindarin that way.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I found that LotR works much better aloud (yay, rah, audiobooks!), which I attribute to his epic-esque writing style.

Time to re-read all of them again, I think.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
But I can't get into it! Such a slog for me.
My two disparate authors who I cannot get into, though I have tried and tried, are Tolkien and Jane Austen.
The movies based on their books, however, I quite like.
Some Lit. major I was, huh?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
You'd think someone would have released a patch by now.

Not only is there no patch, there's no tech support.
