It's like a godzilla movie: Go see for the fighting, not the story or acting.

Also, was anyone else disappointed with Devastator's appearences? I expected....... more.

Pant, pant, pant... I have watched over 130 episodes of Ranma1/2, studied for a History quiz on the English Civil War, and survived reading Paradise Lost by John Miltion, all within the last week or so...

We're reading To Kill a Mockingbird in English and I'm dying of boredom. Dullest book I've ever read - don't care if it IS a classic.

Oh dear gosh... I read that book years ago, back in 6th grade. I don't remember much of it, but I think it was set during the 1940's...

That book has NOTHING on Robinson Crusoe. We were given that to read last year, during 9th grade. and it wasn't the abridged version, either. Let's just say I want to chuck that book out the window for Mr. Bond having to make me read that tedious book with paper-thin characters like Friday...

Hey! Atleast both of them are better then the Twilight series...

Bowser: AAACCCKKKK! My lungs! They're burning cuz someone mentioned those atrocious books! CURSE YOU, STEPHANIE MEYER!

Ugh. You could hand me the worst book you know of, and it would STILL be better than Meyer's series. -______-

NO! My English/History teacher's name is Douglas Bond. He's written quite a few books and is now busy on a biography of John Huss... or was it John Knox? Or even John Bunyan? or perhaps it was John Milton... TOO MANY JOHNS!

Ridley: I just had the best dream... that CS fell into a cursed spring in China that turned him into a panda!

Now where have I heard that before?

I had to do To Kill A Mocking Bird as well. Better than some of the other books on the course, I'll give it that.

As for Twilight, I read the first one, so now I'm QUALIFIED to call it a piece of s***!

I've had the misfortune to read all four books.

All pieces of sh*t. Not worth the money. [Should've gotten the books from the library before I bought them. -____-]

Agree agree agree.

As for To Kill a Mocking Bird, I had to read that this year as well. It actually saved me hours of boredom when I was stuck upstairs after I broke my foot.

A pretty good book IMO.

Each to his/her own. XP

Personally, I prefer to kick back with one of the Maximum Ride novels and a hot cup of tea.
