First day here, folks. It seems a very kewl place.
I'm curious about what people read? If it has anything to do with what kind of movies they like.
I like the Tom Clancy books--only the Jack Ryan/Clark series, LOTR, Umberto Eco-- the Name of the Rose (both the book and its film version with Sean Connery), Stephen King's horror, The Sparrow--Jesuits try to colonize a planet, Shakespeare--I like a lot of the Shakespeare films especially Mel Gibson's Hamlet, Branagh's Henry V (and Hamlet), Kurosawa's Throne of Blood (Macbeth) and RAN (King Lear), Lovecraft--I don't remember a lot of films based on his work--Somebody remind me if there is! And I read a lot of history. So I tend to go to films based on historical figures and events. Rob Roy. Sorry I didn't like Schindler's List. Elizabeth. Yeah Spartacus & Gladiator. (I don't insist on accuracy; I just like to be entertained! All I can think of for now. Hope I don't overstay my welcome!
