<p>Yeah yeah, you’ll get to it by April ;)</p>
<p>Haahaha I’m not THAT fast.</p>
<p>And I need to visit you in April so I can get The Sequel.</p>
<p>@Maelstrom let’s swap dads just for tomorrow. <em>pokes her own dad nervously</em> If I don’t go to college I blame you.</p>
<p>Ooh yes, The Sequel.</p>
<p>Have any of you ‘bookies’ read ‘War and Peace’ in its entirety??</p>
<p>I’m actually not as well-read as you think! No, I haven’t.</p>
<p>War and Peace is overrated. Not that I’ve read it though 
its like bigger than a friggin dictionary!</p>
<p>It’s been on my booklist forever. A lot of things have been on my booklist forever. Damn you, board examinations <em>shakes fist at it</em></p>
<p>I know. I think it’s overrated too. The contents page of War and Peace actually rivals the scope of syllabus given in KL Chugh! Maybe, I don’t know, you have to be wizened to appreciate it? The movie adapted from the book is 8 hours!!</p>
<p>Even ‘Citizen Kane’, considered the greatest film of all time, couldn’t keep me engrossed for more than half an hour. And even that I saw in 3 10-minute sittings!</p>
<p>I was planning on watching Citizen Kane. Not worth it, eh?</p>
<p>By the way, everyone needs to watch American Beauty.</p>
<p>Well, it’s just that since it was made in 1941, everything will be MAJORLY different to us. What might have been revolutionary back then may seem like some second-rate work produced by college students. The flashbacks are those grotesquely funny fast-forwarded scenes where everyone walks uber-fast and such. Information is relayed in nothing but huge sentences covering the entire screen rather than small lines while the movie is playing, actors talking real fast in a very unnatural way…all that just put me off. </p>
<p>By the way…I LOVE American Beauty! Easily one of the ten best movies I’ve ever seen. :)</p>
<p>^ YEAH! Totally!</p>
<p>It’s just one of those movies which you are watching and when you see the time bar in your media player dwindling down you go, “Damn! The movie’s getting over…”. You just do not want to stop watching it and get removed from the world it creates.</p>
<p>It is SO disturbing - and that’s what makes it so powerful - and it’s definitely one of the best satires I’ve seen. Better than American Psycho, and right up there with Fight Club.</p>
<p>I honestly liked it a great deal better than Fight Club.</p>
<p>Haven’t seen American Psycho yet…will have to.</p>
<p>And I thought that chics liked fight club because of brad Pitt :)</p>
<p>For Fight Club, read the book. Palahniuk’s style of writing is f-ing awesome.</p>
<p>I just had a deja vu now while watching Kiss Kiss Bang Bang. Wow.</p>
<p>I can’t find that book anywhere! DANG</p>
<p>my pton interview was good :P</p>
<p>congrats gary!!</p>
