Quote from: Verrt
The first dune book was amazing totaly killer
the follow ups are examples of the worst writing Frank Herbert has ever done
I thought they were reaal average, and you know how bad average sci-fi can be

the first dune movie with sting was ok, not great but ok
but so far I don't think anyone has done the book justice as far as movies or a series are concerned

I liked the other books. I first read it as one - The Great Dune Trilogy"

But the first one "Dune" is just fantastic - deep and powerful. BY the film is nothing compared to the book.

as i had suspected, i beleive we also have a series of the books packed up above the ceiling somewhere. I only have seen the films. Even then i didnt think the film and its sequels were that bad.

I supose for sci-fi they were alright
but for frank herbert they were pretty crap, all I could think of while reading them was
"this isn't as good as any of his other books"

I recomend getting a book called EYE, its a recent publication of short stories by Herbert
awsome read
only problem is it just wets your appatite

babylon 5 never struck my fancy. Perhaps its because i only watched 5 minutes of each episode but it fell to the ranks of startreck; deep space 9. needed more giant ships getting blown to smithereens

Come back tiwa, miss your quotes mate.

I am going to celebrate the 4th by allowing my 4 1/2 year old  to watch copious amounts of clone wars. I have 5 series for him to wade through.

Might get him a tee shirt also.

Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical liberal minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

For some reason this reminded me of what happened a couple of weeks age.

Was in Burger Fuel getting dinner with a female friend, she sees the refurbished Pacman game and is watching the Ghosts running around the maze.

"Which one is Casper?" she asks.

I was about to lol when I realised that she was serious. OMG!

Did you tell her they're called Blinky, Inky, Pinky and Clyde?

Because you should have.
