Manticora --> Hyperion <-- Dan Simmons

I think Leonardo DiCaprio was mentioned as the main actor (which would be Raul, who is introduced in the Endymion books).

DiCrappio as Raul?! *twitchtwitchconvulse* YARG!

His smug I'm-too-sexy-for-this demeanor will blow the movie all to hell.
 
Raul as the main character? Interesting!

Let me also recommend Dan Simmons' Summer of Night -- it isn't SF, but it's great! It was recommended to me years ago (1992?) by a certain Kirk Hammett and he was sooo right.
 
This is just a spout out to Bryan,

I figured out why the Consul is so reluctant to tell his tale :D I dare not tell you if you really are going to read the book. His story didn't really make a hell of a lot of sense as it jumped all over in its chronology, and it really doesn't give me insight into his strong motives. It's one of those things where you would have never guessed, and then after you find out you say "well geezus, i should have figured that out"

Had I not known there was a sequel I would have been mighty pissed about the ending, so far the sequel seems to start at about the start of the pilgrimage from the first book, but from a different perspective. Looks to be equally interesting!

I can't wait for the EIGHT DEADLY SINS!!! hopefully they'll have the 9th deadly sin (amputee midget porn) on a japanese bonus track or something :)

If it's the Japanese bonus track, it'd have to be about that goddamned Legend of the Overfiend shit then! THAT was a fuckin sin to be forced to watch that crap! LOL
Why, whatever do you mean? Giant angry penises destroy defenseless hospitals alll the time in MY universe........ :loco:
 
Sorry! ONE penis is good enough for me! I don't need THREE of them! I don't need three women mad at me after 2 minutes in bed!


Is it masked bragging to say that I've had three women in bed at the same time mad at me, or shameful? :loco: I mean hey... I had THREE of em... but then again... would it be any different than 6 minutes with one? Any way you do the math, still got a woman mad at ya... this is all hypothetically speaking, I assure you... I mean really.... I don't have an endurance problem or anything.... I use the Tony Bennett Listerine method... :erk:

:D




2 minutes....


To midnight....
