Fun summer read back in my teens. ** -- ColoVT82 09/24/2020 3:28PM Yes. "Fear is the mind killer" ** -- HortHokie 09/24/2020 2:49PM Yes. And I can't wait for the movie. -- VTSnake 09/24/2020 2:37PM Enemy came after Prisoners but people didn't "get" it ** -- Synaesthesia 09/24/2020 6:41PM I actually enjoyed the original -- Burruss Writer 09/24/2020 3:14PM So did I, and the Syfy miniseries ** -- WestyHokie 09/24/2020 7:17PM Read it way back long time ago -- `lag 09/24/2020 2:11PM Ever seen the documentary film "Jodorowsky's Dune?" -- DJ Golf 09/24/2020 3:10PM No, I sure haven't, but that makes a lot of sense... -- `lag 09/24/2020 3:29PM Yep, the detail is amazing. I read he spent ~4 years just doing research, -- ArdbegHokie 09/24/2020 2:20PM Awesome book. Good series. Horrible films to this point ** -- Newt 09/24/2020 1:57PM I've enjoyed the films but felt they were too rushed, trying to fit a story -- HortHokie 09/24/2020 2:51PM Exactly, he and say, GRR Martin are alike... -- `lag 09/24/2020 3:43PM Movie versions of SciFi novels haven't been good.
