I have Hamlet, Midsummer night's dream and Romeo&Juliet.
Yay, boo and eh in that order. Hate me some Midsummer Night's Dream. That's my least favorite play.

I am disappoint. Not a single Shakespeare book... tsk tsk tsk.

Did Shakespeare ever fight off swarms of undead? Save the Great City of Amber? Help Frodo destroy The Ring? Form the first druid council with Galaphile? Assist Sam Fisher in stopping "The Shop" from wiping out "Third Echelon"?

Well!? Did he?
Uh.... yesssss? Well, he was a lyrical genius, if that helps.

I encourage that you pursue Macbeth! By far my favorite play of all time. Coming up in second, Hamlet then I think Othello. And I am really starting to dig Titus Andronicus as well. Also, if you'd rather watch it, I think they still have the modern day Macbeth with Patrick Stewart on Netflix, but I could be wrong. But that's an amazing play.

Going to go out on a limb here and say Ina likes R. A. Salvatore.
Hes the author that got me into reading so yeh I have most of his stuff.

Bismarck.Magnuss said: »

Couldn't get into his stuff : ( I pritty much only read the fantasy genre, I like the idea that the author isn't compleatly chained to the real world so pritty much anything can happen.
You know, if it's Fantasy you're after, you could always try reading some stuff by Robert Jordan... And yeah, Shakespeare isn't for everyone.
I have the first book of Wheel of Time but didn't get very far in it... It's on my one day list but Malazan series and Song of Ice and Fire are definetly a head of it.

Bismarck.Narshee said: »
I want your Dragon Age books, Ina. D: You should pick up The Witcher too

Stolen Throne and The Calling are really easy to find and work as prequels to the games, they are worth a read but there is some slight contradiction to the game. Not enough to hurt anything though and the biggest one is actually a big point of argument amoung DA plays as to if it's true and what was said in the game is misinformation or if it's just a mistake.

Phoenix.Sehachan said: »
Suggest me some fantasy book Ina, need to get into something new.
Homeland by R.A. Salvator is a good one to check out and is the first book in the Drizzt Saga, timeline wise at least, the 4th-6th books were actually written first. Theres I think 23 books in the saga now so if you like the character it will give you alot to go through.

Malazan book of the Fallen by Steven Erikson is good if you are looking for something a bit heavier, it follows a ton of different characters and weaves their storys together along side the kinda main plot and eachothers really well. The only catch with that one is the first one was kinda slow because there is alot of groundwork to lay, if you check that one out try and go to atleast the end of the 2nd book (of 10) since it does pick up alot.

If you get into the Drizzt books War of the Spider Queen is a good series as well. It splits off from Drizzt after Seige of Darkness so you can read it anytime after that and before Gauntlgrym to avoid any spoilers for either series. Spider Queen was a team effort 6 books each written by a different author so it will give you names to check out if you like a specific one.

They do, it's in my queue. I've been meaning to watch it (mainly because Patrick Stewart is the man >.>)

Oh yeh Seha for Malazan don't let children near it if you do go for it... Game of Thrones has more gore and sex (from what I've read thus far) but Malazan has made me need an adult a couple times.

You probably already seen it, but if not, really check out Baz Luhrmann's Romeo and Juliet!

Anyway, lifeguard time bye folks!

Idk, for the cultures in his world hes kinda mashed up a bunch of real world ones... Like the Malazans make me think of far east but their military structure is similar to the roman's + throw in some ninjas. Tiste Edur as a second example make me think of native americans in clothing and buildings but have a strong warrior aspect to their culture and approve of slavery.

Pen and paper. D&D, FFd6, etc. :x
Drizzt tends to be babbies first clone character that no-one ever plays right. Description, class, personality all matches up perfectly, but it's totally not Drizzt, guys.

Ah yeh, hes the Cloud of D&D when it comes to roleplay. The "real" Drizzt is awesome though imo and it's interesting to see where he is going with the character.

Apparently Sony has registered 3 domain names:

Three Gundam-related domain names — "Gundam-movie.com", "Gundam-movie.net", and "gundammovie.com" — were registered with the host name server sonypictures.com. Sony Pictures Entertainment, Inc. is the U.S.-based television and film production/distribution unit of Japanese media conglomerate, Sony.

Pacific Rim is also kinda Gundam/Macross/Evangelion/Eureka-ish. Also looking forward to what they do with Godzilla in 2014 lol

Some guy just said that reading philosophy he found there wasn't enough action.
I always thought there weren't enough explosions in Descartes, and where are the zombies in Marx?

Book... Seha was asking for books after all :P It's worth a read if you're not afraid of terrible things happening to characters you may come to like.

Yeah, current assumptions are that they're re-releasing the Mobile Suit Gundam movie trilogy. Hopefully with a new dub this time around.
If it's not that, we're probably in for another G Saviour or Dragonball Evolution.
Looking forward to Pacific Rim; sounds like it'll be a fun watch.
