A story about "The X-Files 2 [Theatrical Release]" — 4 hours ago

NOT WORTH CONSUMING

Oh dear gods, this was one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen.
This pretty much sums up my thoughts:

A story about "The Devil in Miss Jones" — 46 weeks ago

NOT WORTH CONSUMING

I didn’t like this as much as Opening of Misty Beethoven, The Punishment of Anne, or Taboo 2.

A story about "The Fairy Tales of Hermann Hesse" — 1 year ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

I finished the audio version, narrated by Donovan (dear gods, that man can read, I could listen to him narrate a phone book, enthralled).
This was just a limited selection, unfortunately, and had only 6 of the stories by Hesse.
Nevertheless, they were quite well written and interesting.

Why I gave up consuming "Dune Messiah (Dune Chronicles, Book 2)" — 1 year ago

I still really want to read Dune Messiah.

The audiobook version, however, read by Connor O’Brien, is terrible. I had to suffer through his rendition of Larry Niven’s Ringworld. His voice is very mechanical sounding, slightly whiny, and his inflection rises weirdly at the end of the sentence.
For a second, I even thought that this was a text-to-voice rendition of the book. But no, that’s just O’Brien, he’s done that on other books it seems.
So, I gave up on this book about half an hour into it.
Will still read it, printed (as this seems to be the only audio version).

A story about "Ovid: The Art of Love" — 1 year ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

Short, funny, sometimes insightful.
Ovid cracks me up—he has a great love for women and the courting game, a rapper’s style of self-aggrandizement (he frequently reminds us of all his conquests, poetic talent, sexual prowess, and that in general, poets are ideally suited for the art of love). This reads like an ancient Roman version of Cosmo magazine, and gives tips like “where to go to meet cute girls” or what hairstyles to wear, how to evade chaperones, and so on.
I recommend it, in spite of the light cheesiness.

A story about "Trigun - The Complete Boxed Set" — 1 year ago

WORTH CONSUMING!

One of my two or three all-time favorite anime series.
Starts out simple and goofy, but very quickly you start to see that there are dark and interesting undercurrents.
