I dig his solo work; it's cool that he really went off on his own and experimented with styles instead of trying to replicate his work w/Led Zeppelin (which I don't think the arena rock sound was ever the greatest fit for his voice anyway...)

Haha I love when that happens too! Although once I checked out Peter Straub's Julia - which is about a woman who goes mad after her child dies - from the library and found a photo of a small child inside it halfway through. Kind of freaked me out. Typically I use whatever's at hand - usually...

At the moment I've got Scoutmaster Ward (played by Edward Norton) from the movie Moonrise Kingdom. Because like me, he's passionate but constantly befuddled - and because Norton is one of my favorite actors. :)

He also wrote the screenplay for the 1943 adaptation of Jane Eyre. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0036969/?ref_=sr_4 Busy guy :)

The Kid Stays in the Picture by Robert Evans was pretty great. I highly recommend the audio version of it. I don't read a ton of autobiographies but I also liked - If Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a B-Movie Actor by Bruce Campbell American on Purpose by Craig Ferguson A Journey by Tony Blair

I notice George Clooney isn't on that list. Gee I wonder why.... :p

Prior to 1999's Office Space, Swingline did not make a red stapler (or rather, they had discontinued it many years prior). The filmmakers painted a grey stapler red in order to make Milton's obsessive prop easier to see. When the movie became a cult favorite people began requesting the red...

Kevin Conroy will always be the only Batman for me.

I watched Oblivion the other day and now I can't get the soundtrack out of my head.

I like a dirty romance now and then but I'm definitely not into the mashing it up with existing works.

I love them both, but I would say I favor Poirot, for kind of the same reason Landslide said. He's more humane & involved with the psychology of the crimes, while Holmes is more about the external clues & details. Also when I was a kid I used to watch the the Poirot movies on PBS' "Mystery"...

I wonder just how many of these they're going to attempt. There's already at least one for Wuthering Heights: http://www.booksamillion.com/p/Wuthering-Nights/Emily-Bronte/9781455573028?id=5771895657486 Yeah.....

Just watched it last night. Loved it! Total shut-off-your-brain fun. I do wish the fights had been a little less shakily edited though. I'm a big fan of del Toro and this didn't change my mind :cool:

Yeaahh, I'm sure you're not meaning to be condescending right now, but I did go to grade school, I know what "overrated" means. A writer can still be overrated without being void of talent.

Yeah, me too. There aren't enough eye-roll emoticons in the world for this.

I love To Kill A Mockingbird, but I can see where the other two would be disappointing. I was school-forced into reading The Old Man and the Sea in junior high and hated it. I still don't like Hemingway, apart from some of his short stories.
