I think the other way around, where he was made in the books, with a significant story arc, and now they're slowly moving him into the visual media (he's prominent in Star Wars Rebels cartoon).Reign in Blood wrote:So like a popular cat like Boba Fett they throw some books down on?

This should be mandatory reading in schools worldwideTiggnutz wrote:Shock Value is so good I don't have words to show my joy so much knowledgeHeadhunter wrote:Shock Value is one I'll be getting to soon because I've been on a film history kick.
In recent months I read Easy Riders, Raging Bulls (about the great 70s directors) and Down and Dirty Pictures (great 90s directors, Miramax and Sundance). Right now plowing my way through City of Nets, which is sort of a mosaic of 1940s Hollywood.

Re: What Are You Reading
yeah, i'm finished. there were some possible inaccuracies. (like the black christmas/halloween stuff) and he seemed to rag on 21st century horror, which i didn't like. but it was a good listen or read, depending on how you did.Tiggnutz wrote:I'm starting chapter 11 so zombie is probably finished.

i can buy halloween being inspired by black christmas. but that's the extent of it. also a black christmas sequel would have undone a lot of the power of the original.Tiggnutz wrote:Finished.

I tried to get into the Bond books. Diamonds are Forever was just such a drag.
