All my friends laugh at me because i thought this movie was actually good, i don't see how it got worst movie of the year, it had good storyline and everything, and i all alone on this one?
 
I positively loved the book.... its just awesome.... I though the movie was allright... they just left out so much that it kinda left a bad after taste in my mouth... have you read the book?
 
I liked the book a lot, too. One of those *classic* Earthman smart, overcomes galaxy, feel-good stories.

I haven't yet seen the movie, is it true to the book?
 
I was reading the book before I saw the movie. I got three pages into it and threw it across the lightrail car that I was riding to work that day (with no one else around) because I felt like doing something random with it, picked it up, and lost it in my room for several months before throwing it away.

Yes, I quite disliked it.

Its is a long book and it starts slow... but when the actions gets started it doesn't stop till the last page...
moonbeam> whats more like 10 books is "the wheel of time" by robert jordan... well 9 as of now... 10th sometimes this year.... very thick books... very good story... if you got the endurance... 😉
 


<< i find the inane acting & dialogue quite funny. >>



Bingo. Geez, people, it's camp. Not every science fiction movie is Star Wars.

That's ma'am to you, sir. And to each his (or her) own. I liked it (and I agree that you had to get past the first few pages).

You are the only one who actually watched battlefield earth!

moonbeam, I remember that one too... I think I got to #7... I couldn't take it anymore... it was still good though...
 
That's actually one of my favorite books - but I skipped out on the movie, everyone said it was so bad I figured no reason to bother...
 
The book kicks @ss.

The movie sucked @ss - it took the middle of the book, leaving out the beginning and end.

Gentlemen, my insanity-meter is off the scale!!
 
The psychosis of the author and his followers prevents me from thinking ANYTHING involved with L. Ron Hubbard is good.
