Conversações: 1972-1990

by Gilles Deleuze

eu li uma boa parte dele, e ‘tava achando legal… mas começou a fazer tantas referências cruzadas sobre cinema e literatura, sobre coisas que eu nunca tinha visto e lido, que eu pensei que eu precisava de um pouco mais de preparo antes de seguir em frente. um dia eu volto…

Universo Numa Camiseta: à Procura da Teoria de Tudo, O

by Dan Falk

uma ótima leitura. acabei me enrolando bastante para começar a lê-lo, mas depois de começar a leitura me capturava a atenção sempre que eu podia. apesar de passar pelas teorias mais importantes da história da física, o livro não é maçante, muito pelo contrário. recomendo a todos que gostam de história, de ciência em geral, e de um bom e divertido livro. :)

A story about "Homem que Fazia Chover, O"

Homem que Fazia Chover, O

by John Grisham

Acho que foi um dos livros que eu mais gostei do John Grisham até hoje. Algumas cenas me fizeram rir um bocado, e desconfio que só não fizeram um filme até hoje porque seria um pouco repetitivo outro caso de processo contra uma empresa malvada pela família de alguém que morreu por causa dela (tem o com o Gene Hackman, “O júri”, ou “Runaway jury” no original, que fala especificamente do mesmo tema). Mesmo assim, acho que daria um filme divertido.

Depois de um minuto de pesquisa, descobri que já existe o filme (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119978/). Oh, well, eu odeio estar sempre certa. ;P Agora vou dar é jeito de assisti-lo. :)

A story about "Encontro com Rama"

Encontro com Rama

by Arthur C. Clarke

a great great great book… I’ve heard of Clarke for a long time since I decided to give it a try. started some months ago, with 2001, and this is the second I’ve read. absolutely fantastic, can’t wait to read the others!

Sherlock Holmes e Einstein: no Caso dos Cientistas Assassinados

by Alexis Lecaye

a bit fun, I must confess—but no way comparable to Arthur Conan Doyle. I still prefer the classic Sherlock Holmes books…

A story about "2001 - A Space Odyssey"

2001 - A Space Odyssey

by Stanley Kubrick

a masterpiece, indeed. everything on it is just magical, from the scene selection to the special effects and, of course, the soundtrack. magical.

hint: I don’t think I’d enjoy it so much if I haven’t read the book before… I wouldn’t notice the little details that make it so perfect. perhaps it’s a hint for those who want to watch it, in the future.

Star Wars Trilogy (Widescreen Edition with Bonus Disc)

by George Lucas

I don’t like choosing, but these are for sure among my favorite movies. very well-written, done and directed; very nice, rich and detailed stories behind them; great actors… oh, and the soundtrack, of course. a genious’ work!!

A story about "Independence Day (Single Disc Widescreen Edition)"

Independence Day (Single Disc Widescreen Edition)

by Roland Emmerich

for me, it’s more about an action than a sci-fi movie… but it’s fun, nonetheless, and kept my attention the whole movie. at least the first time I watched it. :)

A story about "The Ring Two (Unrated Widescreen Edition)"

The Ring Two (Unrated Widescreen Edition)

by Hideo Nakata

it’s not everything the first movie was, but it was to me scary too, and… well, I don’t think I would watch it alone at night. :P

A story about "The Ring"

The Ring

by Gore Verbinski

I guess this is the scariest (or one of them, at least) movie I’ve ever seen. EVER.

Why I recommend "The Nameless (Los Sin nombre) (Uncut Version) [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.2 Import - Spain ]"

The Nameless (Los Sin nombre) (Uncut Version) [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.2 Import - Spain ]

by Jaume Balaguero

this is one of the best horror movies I’ve ever seen, because it’s so… surprising, and scary in the sense that it doesn’t concern about demons, monsters or anything supernatural, but about the human being itself (and the evil in us). very well made, and a great story, also!

Why it's taking me forever to finish consuming "Crime e Castigo (Crime and Punishment)"
