you'll love it!
I got it Currently Reading!
-
Wow! Lucky you
I read 'The Dark Beneath' by him AGES ago and thought it was brilliant!
-
I saw 'The Haunted Airman' on BBC4 quite a while ago when it was on, and I remember thinking it was really good. Ages passed and I just forgot about it. Then, I went to see Twilight, and afterwards I looked up Robert Patterson because I knew I recognised him from something other than Harry Potter. I then realised it was 'The Haunted Airman' I saw a while ago, so I asked for the book for christmas which I got and im now currently reading, and im looking for a copy of the programme to watch again
-
Me and my sister watched the film and both loved it
She is now one-up on me as she has just finished the book which she thought was equally brilliant to the film!
I am now going to read the book to compare
-
It sounds odd but I don't know really
I saw the film and then read the book, and I was just like... WOW!
I couldn't explain it - but it kind of gave me a feeling of how trivial certain things are, mostly material things! I truly believed the line:
"It's only after you've lost everything that you're free to do anything."
Great book and great film!

For Hamlet, I have seen the Laurence Olivier, Mel Gibson and Kenneth Branagh versions, which has helped me more with the text and given me different interpretations of it Ok, i'll try that with the writers frame of mind thingy when I re-read Hamlet... thanks!
-
Id love to see the David Tennant version of Hamlet! But then the whole way through, id be like AHHHH THE DOCTOR and not beable to concentrate on the play! I would love to see a version though if I can
-
The teachers just told them what each sentence meant and told them to copy it down. How silly!
That is what my teachers do-and its why I don't like Hamlet which i'm doing at the moment cause its taught so boringly, which means I will probably fail the exam! Over the christmas holidays, i'm going to read it again and study it on my own which will hopefully make it more intereasting and I will hopefully learn to like it!
-
I always try and keep my books in the best condition as possible!
If I lend them to anyone, I have to exam them when I get them back (away from who I lent them to of course!)
-
Generally in the evenings before I go to bed, but sometimes in the day if im bored and have nothing to do (which isn't often!)
-
I really love Shakespeare, and in order of like to dislike, I have studied:
-Othello (just brilliant)
-Macbeth (quite good)
-Romeo and Juliet (everyone at school thought this was brilliant so I 'rebelled' in my own way by saying it was alright)
-Hamlet (we had a rubbish teacher so it was awful! If I read it alone or studied it with a different teacher, I probably would have enjoyed it!)

When I was in year 11 (aged 16) at school, we had a brilliant English teacher who had a massive cupboard in the back of her classroom full of old books that were never used. We always joked with her that when we left at the end of year 11, she would give us all a book to save her having to clear them out. When it came to the end of year 11 before we left, she had in fact picked out a book for each of us personally, wrote a message for us each in the book and gave them out. I got 'Tom's Midnight Garden' by Philippa Pearce so I treasure that book from such a brilliant teacher
-
Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk!

-

I watched Dead Poets Society yesterday evening and I thought that was a BRILLIANT film
I'd love to start a 'Dead Poets Society' up!

Oh yes, with the lovely Julian McMahon taking his clothes of at every opportunity!
The thing is though, I can't remember how the last series ended apart from it being a cliff hanger.....
Definatly true about Julian McMahon
I can't really remember how it ended, all I can remember is...
*SPOLIER* *SPOLIER* *SPOLIER* *SPOLIER* *SPOLIER*
Juliet getting shot and losing her memory, but I can't remember what happened to Matt or anyone

Moulin Rouge!
It blew me away the first time I saw it several years ago and it is still my favourite, despite the hundreds of films I have seen since
-
In my A-level class, we just read Journey's End by R.C Sherrif which was SUPERUB! Its a stage play which is about 100 pages so it won't take you long to read and it is brilliant- highly recommended!

I like 30 Seconds to Mars also! The only album I have is 'A Beautiful Lie' (which I love!) and my favourite song on the album is probably 'Was It A Dream?' I also saw 30 Seconds a few months back in London! Anyone like The Rasmus?
