Recommendations

[Marie 73]

I am now back from spring break and find myself bored. And so I ask (demand) of you to recommend something to me. Anything. Books, movies, anime/manga, whatever, I don't care!

 

And so this isn't a one sided affair, I shall participate:

 

Books: Any Discworld novel is worth a read. There is also of course... A Shadow in Eternity.

Movies: The Fifth Element. Everyone should see this at least once, and if you have seen it once.... What's wrong with you?! Go see it again!

 

And that's all from me.

*blushes prettily*

 

Okay, here are my recommendations for books: If anyone's looking for heroic fantasy, I'd recommend Tamora Pierce; for crime, Reginald Hill, Ian Rankin, Peter Lovesy

 

As for movies... I'd love some ideas myself. I recently saw "Million Dollar Baby", but it was sooo sad . I heard "Memoirs of a Geisha" is really good too.

 

Ooh, games: If you haven't played the Sims 2 or Deus Ex, your life has so far been incomplete

"The Historian" by Elizabeth Kostova.

 

And Jan's book, of course.

Movies: Taxi Driver, starring DeNiro; Boondock Saints

 

Misc: Smoke weed, then play Mario Kart 64. If you need emulator or roms, PM me.

+1 Deus Ex: The Conspiracy

 

*perks up* What's that?! Where can I get it?

 

Oh, I'd also recommend the Diablo games! For some reason I've been feeling like playing Diablo II: Lord of Destruction these past few days, but I have so much work! :-(

 

Books wise, I'm trying David Eddings' Belgariad books. Not bad...

Deus Ex:The Conspiracy was the very first Deus Ex. I was just agreeing with you.

In my previous post I forgot to recommend stuff...

Wow... and I didn't know that! *sheepish*

So I'm not crazy, or we're just both crazy!

 

Games:Well... Elder Scrolls IV is out, but it's $60 dollars and is either DVD PC or Xbox 360 and has high system requirements.

 

Movies/Anime: Howl's Moving Castle I guess... I've still got mixed feelings about it.

[Marie 73]

I've heard Howl's was a good film. Never seen it though. Spirited Away is a good film, even if you don't like anime.

[Sivart Reborn 7]

Well, I don't like anime and I have to say... I like the film. I think I'll see more of this Miyazaki's work actually.
