Who the fuck doesn't.

Edit - didn't read OP.

 

[moshquerade]

i see what you did there.

 

[HAL9000]

I do!...

Wait what?

 

[nanette1985]

Yes I like Dick.

And, yes I do.

 

[MagnusTheBrewer]

Yes, very much. He's one of the great early science fiction writers like Anderson, Asimov, Heinlein and, Clark.

 

[Jeeebus]

Whoa, he's responsible for Paycheck and Paycheck!?!?

 

[Kelvrick]

Do you like fish sticks?

 

[nanette1985]

Whoa, he's responsible for Paycheck and Paycheck!?!?

Genius I tell you. Genius. If anyone can do it he can.

 

[Engineer]

I really dislike Dick but I love Dick movies.

 

[gorcorps]

I'm going to be that guy and say "blade runner" shouldn't be considered the movie version of the book "do androids dream of electric sheep". VERY loosely inspired stories and such, but a much different feel and stuff. When making the movie they had the common decency to change the name to try and distance people from comparing them directly, but people still do.

Hated that movie too.

 

[HAL9000]

Hated that movie too.

[MagnusTheBrewer]

I've never figured out why people love to compare books and movies. Does anyone compare music and paintings? Movies made from books aren't made by the author of the story. Hell, most authors have zero, zip, nada to do with the screen play.

Those are all his movies? Some really good movies there. A Scanner Darkly and Blade Runner are the most trippy though. I don't read at all so it's interesting to know that many movies are based off his books.

I love dick, but only the penis kind.

 

[Malak]

Only in bulk

 

[SKORPI0]

Of course, it's my favorite sporting goods place to shop.

 

[coreyb]

[Howard]

I like Dick Trickle.

 

[Leros]

Do you like fish sticks?

I love dick sticks

I love dick, but only the penis kind.

hey, me too

the only book of his that I've read was The Man in High Castle.

I was young when I read it, though. I might like it more now, he's been on my to-read list forever... my boyfriend's been loading me up on fantasy novels, though, so my sci-fi reading has been pushed to the background.
