I think we've got the Stand. Let me look.


They just recently came out with the uncut version. Chances are the one you have is the older cut one.

Hardback is over 1200 pages long, oh but it is worth it.

Five Tenets of Bungie.net Forum Life:
1. Trolls will always be well fed.
2. Blame-ability thy name is stosh.
3. Bungie has no control over retail prices.
4. Watch out for low-flying defense drones.
5. Seven is not optional, but rather, an inevitability.

Don't have The Stand, hated the movie of Delores Claiborne, and all we've got is Night Shift and Dreamcatcher. Which one do I read?

ObbiQuiet, I know I wrote this a little earlier but no one responded to it. Have you ever read any Kurt Vonnegut? He has a very interesting view on the world. You may like it.

edit: Ajenteks, you too.


Nope. I haven't read his stuff.

Can't say that I have. His website is interesting enough though.

Jesus!

What's even better is that the pages are huge and the type is medium-small. :D

It's a great book, though. And it gives you a good background for the Dark Tower, which is the monster of stories.

So, the original version had naughty words in it? Then they edited it and then they made an uncut version, with all of the naughty words in it?

I checked out the website.

Two or three of his books look like they have a Christian theme. Personally, I cannot enjoy those types of books. I simply cannot relate, and the meaning behind the book is lost.

The movie was meh, and so was the book. Duditz was cool though, but his alien form looks weak in the movie.

Screw this. I'll finish reading the Flood for the fourth time first and then I'll go check out some Hello Kitty books...

Lol, no. The first version was way too long. No one would publish such a long book. They forced Stephen King (still early in his career) to cut out like 1/3 of the book.

Now that he's famous he added it all back in.

I agree about the alien. The other one looked worse to me though.

The only intense part in DreamCatcher was when Beave was on the toilet. :/

What's funny is that the intense part is what was in the toilet.

Yeah. The alien thing trying to get out and kill and maim or just take over that one guy's body. Turds can be so mean. I guess Mr. Hanky just felt like going on a rampage...

I must say that I liked the memory warehouse idea.

So did I. I thought that was pretty awesome.

Unfortunately the movie didn't give it much explanation.

Where the red haired guy was collecting all of Duditz's memories or whatever? That was interesting. I liked when they bombed all of those aliens. They tried in vain to get the humans to ceasefire. It was kinda cool.

If you want to watch something about aliens that's cool, and really scary, try and find a copy of Intruders, it's probably the scariest made-for-tv mini-series I've ever seen.

I liked it when the guy that had the alien in him talked to himself/the alien.

The movie that's scared me the most, EVER, was IT.

I watched it when I was twelve. It was one of those movies that sucked you in.
