I agree with Rebel Scumb. I myself am not religious, but was brought up Catholic (I think, always get that confused). Anyway, I want to quote Footlose, don't remember it exactly, but the Reverend says that "The Devil is not in the books but inside of us." Now that is not exactly how he said it but what he was saying during the scene where people were burning books. This whole arguement reminds me of the Christians boycotting stores for not saying Merry Christmas. I feel that religions tend to be hypicritcal (however that's spelled). There are so many problems with religions but this is not for this thread. This also reminds me of violence from video games. I feel if a child cannot tell the difference between reality and fiction they shouldn't be allowed to play a game. Same concept for books, except they shouldn't be allowed to read the book.

Anyway, as not to get off the movie, I really liked this movie. I think that it's the best movie yet and it was really well done. Gaffer Tape, I find it cute that you cried . I also think you're a real man for admitting it. I agree with you about that part. In the book it definitely gave me the chills and I felt my throat tighten up. Never cried but I feel it was even more powerful in the movie. I'm definitely going to be getting this when it comes out on DVD, which the way stuff seems to be going will probably be by summer next year. Is it me or do movies seem to hit DVD really quickly after they are out of the theatres? Anyway, I definitely reccommend the movie and if you can definitely read the books as they do have more depth.

The only complaint that I have about the movies, and it's not just these movies, but all movies based on books. WIth a book you need to use your imagination cause there aren't pictures. I feel that after watching these movies I am having a hard time creating the characters in my mind as when I first started reading the books. Is anybody else like this? Just curious.
