Oh man. Its soooooo good!

The book is also good. One of the few true book to movie translations IMO.

I have not read the bookā€¦ why did I not get an English PhD and study dystopian literature!

It is perhaps not the right book to read after retreating to a cabin in the woods following the death of a loved oneā€¦ or maybe just right?

And I imagine you didnā€™t because you didnā€™t want to work at Starbucks?

I loved that movie. It has really good music too - I kind of had a little fanboy freakout when I recognized the Roots Manuva track playing on the car radio

Is it only me that finds Clive Owen to be a really boring actor, then?

I mean, yes, I like Children of Men too, but heā€™s just so snoozeworthy all the time.

Iā€™m not really a fan of his, but his style of acting was pretty spot on for this film.

Iā€™m studying the music industry in the Cold Warā€¦ wonā€™t I be working at Starbucks anyhow? Or adjuncting myself to death, I guess.

Donā€™t adjunct yourself. I did that and the pay sucks, the hours suck, thereā€™s no payoff. Iā€™d rather work in Starbucks than adjunct. Seriously. Donā€™t do it!!!

I was recently banned for a week. No warning. No indication of what post triggered it. No indication of who did the banning. Nothing at all, except the one word ā€œsnarkyā€. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? If that were a reason for banning, 80% of the posters here would be in a constant state of banishment. And it appeared that all my recent posts were still on line. So how is a post ā€œsnarkyā€ enough to get someone banned, but doesnā€™t rate being deleted? And how are you supposed to know what to avoid in the future?

Someoneā€™s got some ā€˜splaininā€™ to do.

She could move to Athens and go work at Wuxtryā€¦

You are seriously playing with fire here, Buster. If you so much as employ irony, you are OUT.

Sorry. Positive feedback doesnā€™t always have the desired effect.

Well, I think youā€™re one of the nicest, most helpful Tough Old Broads out there. :wink:
