Will not touch them or the "new" star wars stuff. -------------

The "New" star wars stuff isnt new by any means. The series consists of three trilogies, Lucas made the films 3-6, intending to stop. He decided to make 1-3 to let people see how it began I think. The last three he might make, he might not. ------------- Real Men play Tuba [IMG]http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/1859/newsmall6xz.jpg"> PH33R TEH 1337 Dwarf! http://www.tippmann.com/forum/wwf77a/log_off_user.asp" rel="nofollow - DONT CLICK ME!!1 |

| You're missing out, Hades - the new Star Wars movies have what you missed in the first three: Jedis that actually kick ass, instead of always trying to improve. |

J.K. Rowling(sp?) is a very hard working author that knows alot about ancient witchcraft. This is what makes her books both dangerouse and educational to Christians.
I am a Christian, but I would probably let my kids read the books. The books are good, and represent a large amount of good principals. The books are fantasy and should be understood as thus. I still read the LOTR trilogy every year. They are soooo much better than the movies. Later -------------

I havent picked up any of the books, they're just not my style. What irks the heck out of me are the people that treat is like its some kind of gospel or real life story. Example: I was in RA training over the summer, and we were going over diversity training. The instructor told us to compile a list of as many hateful, derrogatory and non-inclusive terms as we could. Our list was hair-raising we called out every racial slur and every ethnic insult you could think of. The worst of the worst. When we were winding down, this girl calls out "Muggle" The room got quiet and most of us stared at her in awe. "Muggle is a non-inclusive term" she said. And she was SERIOUS. I wanted to beat her with a chair....but it WAS sensitivity training. ------------- ? |

^^That is the problem with all fantasy though. People get too caught up in what is not real.
Take sports for instance...(I don't think I need to define that) Later -------------

I have read all of them so far and watched the movies. I think there pretty good, except the plot is starting to get a little unoriginal. ------------- http://www.freewebs.com/outlawspaintball/index.htm - Outlaws *Sponsors* http://www.abrika.ca - Abrika |

I've yet to read them, but am eventually going to pick them up.
Right mow I'm finding my way through Terry Pratchetts back log, and the original RA Salvatore forgotten realms books. I think I still lack four in the Drizzt Do'Urden sets, but I'll get there eventually. I'm about to put everything off and re-read the Hitchhiker Guide to the Galaxy, given the new release date for the movie(a week earlier than originally planned). |

Some of us like to read well written books, regardless of their intended age group. You'll have to excuse me, 98c Dude13, if I perfer competant writing to whatever trash is supposedly written for adults.
Artemis Fowl is a book marketed for older children and one of the best books I've ever read. I didn't read it until I was 18. I recommend it to anyone and everyone looking for a good read. The second in the series lacks quite a bit, but the third picks back up strongly. |

I am Catholic and see nothing wrong with them since they are fiction. They arent trying to pound it into your head that witchcraft is real. Its called fiction, yet some people cant understand this. Plus they are pretty interesting. It was also funny when people would read them and say, "oh, my mom is making me read them" -------------  |
