I want to rent Michael Moore's latest movie.

It's called Sicko and it is Mr. Moore's second of third movie for The Weinstein Comp.

His next movie will be called Fahrenheit 9/11 & 1/2,
a sequel to Fahrenheit 9/11.

I still need to see the end of Resident Evil Apocalypse. I have yet to see Extinction. I don't know if Blockbuster has it yet...

I am currently reading the Chronicles of Narnia series. I will soon be reading book six, "The Silver Chair."

I watched the movie "Four Minutes," the biography of Roger Bannister. There is an older movie, "The Four Minute Mile," made in 1988, also about Bannister. From the description, it sounds a lot like the book "The Perfect Mile," about Bannister, John Landy and Wes Santee.

The last three Dark Tower books by Stephen King

do it! i love his books, especially the dark tower series!


The last volumes weren't as good as the first four - I mean, I haven't read the last one yet but Song of Susannah and Wolves of Calla didn't fit the former ones.


in what way do you mean?

Karla was a terrible film - really amateurishly written with low production values. Just like Dahmer. When it comes to true crime films, I find you're better off reading the Max Haines versions... it gives you all the interesting parts, without a lot of filler and bad actors.

For books, I'm going to try and read the entire Hans Christian Anderson collection of tales. :)

Their action takes place in NYC and Maine not in Roland's world. Anyway the previous books' action wasn't that fast, events seemed to go in their own steady tempo. The last books have more in common with each other than with 4 first volumes of the last gunslinger's adventures. Atmosphere is a bit different - there's no such magic like in those fist novels, it vanished - it's hard to explain it but when you read them yourself you'll know what I'm talking about :D
