I'm surprised. But then, most of Miller's works are entirely dependent on the quality of the cast. I had a class on Eugene O'Neill, which was phenomenal.Captain Seafort wrote:For the last one we went (i.e. were forced) to go and see it at the local theatre. Virtually everyone fell asleep.

I'd much rather read Shakespeare than the Catcher in the fucking Rye. God, I hated that book.Cpl Kendall wrote:My entire HS English curriculmn consisted of Shakespeare, Shakespeare, 1984, Shakespeare and yet more Shakespeare. I would have done practically anything to get to read something else, I picked up Moby Dick on my own cause I was so fragging sick of that shite.
The only Shakespeare that we read was MacBeth, which was pretty good.

Re: sfdebris: TWOK!
Oh, come on. How can you not love a book about a bunch of muderous children stranded on an island?

Although I haven't read it in years, so I can't really remember most of it.

It wasn't a bad book IMO, a little off, but not bad per se...

I have to admit, I wonder how he's gonna handle Search for Spock and Voyage Home.
Re: sfdebris: TWOK!
Maybe by reading the complete works of Jacqueline Susann, and the novels of Harold Robbins.RK_Striker_JK_5 wrote:I have to admit, I wonder how he's gonna handle Search for Spock and Voyage Home.

Just got around to watching this straight through. Got to say, I would love to have this guy on the forum. I really couldn't disagree with anything he covered even if I tried.

And you haven't gotten him to sign up here. Why not? He would be an amazing addition to our little group of friends.
