Ok. This book was fluid and beautifully written. The concepts on how to run a Utopian society where the indiviuality of every person is understood and utilized for the greater good of the community were, in my opinion, fascinating and plausible.

I felt that the ending was very unsatisfying though. Aldous Huxley was apparently very in to the hallucinogens in his later years and as this book (being his last published book before he died) seems to be very disjointed by the end. It was kind of a ‘What the Fuck?” ending really.

It was still just lushly amazing to read and probably one of the best books I’ve read in the last 365 days. I guess that the first half had me hoping for a new messiah in Huxley and he couldn’t deliver.

So much for looking to one man for leadership, though I guess he warned me not to do that.

I doubt you will ever find a book that more endears and enthralls you with the trials of a warren of rabbits. It’s very humanizing and yet stil distinctly feels ‘rabbitty’.

This book was so beautiful. I picked it up on a lark once at the public library and it blew me away. The story of the old man is so simple and yet so compelling. I felt like I was alongside him through the whole story just waiting and struggling and holding on with all of my willpower to best this fish. As a side note I hate fish and think that they’re absolutely gross so it was big for me to care so much about how this man fared. I found the ending extremely powerful. Check it out.

According to my ‘History of Costume’ teacher this movie is one of the most historically accurate movie of all time lookswise. The costumes, the interior decorating, even the pets. It’s bizarre to say the least and it deals with a lot of gender definition and confusion.

At the end of the movie everyone in my class was asking ”..... ssooooooo was she a man or a woman?” to which my teacher laughed and said “Noone ever asks me how she managed to live for over three hundred years. It’s always the gender question.”

When a movie looks this good though, anyone who likes to see how we (or at least the English and French) once looked should check it out.

If you liked ‘Monty Pythons Flying Circus’ or ‘Kids in the Hall’ then you will probably laugh your butt off at ‘Little Britain’.

The characters are hilariously rediculous. Keep your eyes out for Lou and Andy and for Dafyyth (the only gay in the village). These guys have no shame and it’s awesome!

A cheesy, good-natured romp. It’s actually one of those movies where you pick up more and more little side jokes the more you watch it (the kids I used to nanny for had me watch it with them about forty times- I’ve picked up a lot).

The kids are adorable, the adults are hilarious and the art direction is superb! The plot is silly, but totally enjoyable and the cast plays extremely well off of each other. The ‘moral messages’ are clear and smart.

Few movies use specific colors for their characters so blatantly, but it looks gorgeous and vibrant in this movie.

If you don’t enjoy this movie (even secretly) then you are just an old grump with no imagination.

Wow. It’s hard to randomly grab a book out of the library and enjoy it. I had never heard of this book or this author before. It was a pretty interesting read with fairly well measured amounts of suspense, mystery, compassion, humor and heart. If I could change one thing about it then I would have made it more apparent that the story was building up to the ending that it did because said ending blindsided me quite a bit. I enjoyed that the story takes place on and around Vancouver Island and really offers up some lovely visuals and intriguing historical facts about the area. It’s worth reading.

I was disappointed with this one. It wasn’t anywhere near as fantastical as the previews showed. It was pretty brutally violent in many parts. All in all I walked away just not caring that much. It was a powerful movie at many points, but I found no staying power afterwards. Great acting, just some strange plot points and twists that greatly took away from it.

Beautiful illustrations, just beautiful. If you consider yourself a Star Wars geek and you love to flesh out the universe then this book will look great as part of your collection. Learn about the habits and habitats of many of the major and quite a few of the minor species of creatures throughout the Star Wars ‘verse. Bonus points because we finally see what the Sarlacc looks like.

It may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but I love this show. The plot lines are usually so goofy, but still done in such creative ways that you can almost believe that Earl really is some well-meaning American screw-up out there trying to make his life better. Stand-out performances by Jaime Pressly and Eddie Steeples as Earl ex-wife Joy and her new husband Darnell. Give it a shot.
