I can only repeat.
I am not going to see it. I do not need to see this kind of thing.
How about a fifth option on the poll?
"I haven't seen it, and I am not going to."

Good Lord, I don't know. :confused: I have been reading books ever since I was 7-8 years old. So That will be over 35 years. :eek:
Since 1998 I have made a list of books I have read, which will include well over 100 different authors.

I have read 31 of them, which I am quite happy with. Given the fact, that they are almost all of them English or American - and I read a lot of Danish / Scandinavian litterature as well.
Some of those the list, I have read in English, and some in translations.

My favorist poets are: (in no particular order)
W.H. Auden, John Donne, Emily Dickinson, Pablo Neruda, William Wordsworth, William Blake, Rabindranath Tagore, William Shakespeare.
And from my own neck-of-the-woods: Dan Turell, Johannes V. Jensen, Morten Nielsen, Michael Strunge, Henrik...
I don't know if you are aware of it (probably you are, being book lovers and all). But next year a huge cultural event will take place in Denmark: The celebration of Hans Christian Andersens (would be) 200 years birthday. :)
The purpose of the celebrations is to make sure, that as many people...
Almost. The right way would be: Jeg elsker Lars von Triers version af filmen.
(that was a very good try, by the way) :)
On a different note, I am with you on the Stephen King - thing. Why is it, that americans insist on making remakes of foreing films - in stead of just showing the...
Well, Mile-O-Phile. You never know. :(
Originally we were promised 13 episodes all together, but several of the leading cast has passed away, and Lars von Trier is hasting off to new horizons. So for the time being, there is no plans of making the last 5 episodes. :(
But von Trier is...
Oh? It's that good?
They are showing it on Danish Television sometime during Easter. I was planning to see it, but now I definitely will. - And I will think you. :)
A scotsman speaking German :confused: :confused: Wow!
Well, I am not really into religious stuff. Apart from that, I have heard that it is quite "graphic" with a lot of horrible details. Don't need to see that... :eek:
Then again, I might see it. I might cave in to peer pressure - and go...
Thank you, Jonzey, for your words of comfort.
Psst. Can I? - no I can't - ... :confused:
No, I have to. I am dying to know... :o
Which film was it?
(You may whisper it to me, I am not going to tell....)
Hobitten :o
PS: I don't think I will see Passion of Christ...
My recommendations are - in no particular order:
Jane Austen: Pride and Prejudice
Ken Follett: The Pillars of the Earth
Tolkien: Lord of the Rings Trilogy
Jan Kjærstad: The Seducer (as well as the next two in the trilogy: The Conqueror, and The Explorer).
Paul Auster: The Book of...
I went to see Return of the King, yesterday, I must admit.
I had to. My friend had not seen it, and she didn't want to see it without me. So I had to make the sacrifice. :rolleyes:
(Pssst. Hobitten whispering: It was the fourth time I saw in the cinema).
Do you think, I need help...
I know what you mean.
Whenever (and that doesn't happen often, because I hate it...) I go out to buy clothes. I often end up with a book or two in stead. :o
It seems so much easier. You don't have to try it on, for one - and you don't have to look at yourself in the mirror in that...
Yesterday I bought the newest Elizabeth George crimenovel in paperback :) (FINALLY reached these Danish shores! :rolleyes: ).
Oh, and I ordered the illustrated edition of LotR. Illustrated by Alan Lee, that is. :o :o
(I do think, I need therapy. I am much too hooked on this Middle...
Wouw! That set people's imagination going... :o
I must make a small correction, no doubt due to my shortcomings in the language English. :o I shared a beach with the penguins (they had most of the beach) :(
Got it?
