My ratings go like this:
1) Episode 4 - A New Hope
2) Episdoe 5 - Empire Strikes Back
3) Episode 3 - Revenge of the Sith
4) Episode 6 - Return of the Jedi
5) Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace
6) Episode 2 - Attack of the Clones

I love episode 4 the best just because it’s such a classic story and had such great characters and sound effects. It brought me into the Star Wars universe and made me believe in science fiction and has altered my life….
Plus I love me a good Darth Vader lightsaber fight!

Considering the recent success of ERAGON and HARRY POTTER from bookshelves and movie theaters, does anyone else believe that the stories lack the substance many well-developed classics have come to be known by? Can anyone else tell me why characters and plotlines are so predictable and one-dimensional? *For those who are fan-boys and fan-girls, look away and do not answer. I will simply not regard your angry replies with interest, because it has been established that ERAGON and HARRY POTTER are both commercial fiction and hold no literary value, as far as depth is concerned.*

Why do you think that there is prejudice against fantasy and science fiction in literary circles?

zymbar asked:


I believe these forms are higly creative ( although they can also be highly copied so is regular fiction ). I can site many works that are equal or superior to mainstream fiction or classics. For instance you would be hard pressed to find a work more with the depth and breadth of Lord of the Rings in mainstream genres.

Your thoughts on this.

Melissa asked:


Anything but science fiction/fantasy, please. Preferably less well-known classics or older pieces of literature that were never considered classics, like I’ve been reading some Christopher Morley lately, it’s quite good and makes for light reading. I’m really looking for adventure, historcial, romance, and maybe some light reading.

Is it just me or has Danny Boyle created a science fiction classic and cemented his reputation as the next James Cameron, Ridley Scott in Sunshine? Whilst I have not actually viewed the movie and originally thought the premise of reigniting the sun was tired I feel Boyle has created an exotic, exciting movie by reigniting and reworking formulas created in Alien and Aliens as well as his own masterpiece 28 days later.

I was wondering if anyone has any books to reccomend?
I pretty much read everything there is, except science fiction, but I’m willing to try reading some if there’s a good sci fi book.
I like historical novels alot, and classic stuff, but I’m seriously willing to read ANYTHING good.
Thanks guys =)
