Hey Paul-

Any chance of you distributing a few Infernal ARCs to your faithful fans here on the board? Perhaps a contest or random drawing? Of course, if you want to, you could just send me a copy, I'll gladly proof read it for you.

Otherwise, I may have to kidnap other members of the board and hold them hostage until the ARCs are released...any volunteers out there?

Check out the article here.

What's so hard about changing the channel? Granted, I think Fear Factor is a pretty lame show but still...

I like how the Cleveland man ran out and hit his head on the door AND can't do any interviews unless they pay him. What a dumbass.

I just finished SIMS, and I must say that it's my favorite non-AC, non-RJ novel by the Man. Gripping, relevent, scary in its believability, with great characters and a very warm touch. As usual with FPW's works, I read like a house afire, and then have to put the book down for a few moments because I'm so wound up - I can't bear then tension. Then I've got to begin reading again because I've got to know what happens. It's an approach to reading that is a tad schizophrenic, all engendered by FPW's amazing ability to create wickedly taut and compelling stories.

Wonderful, wonderful book!

Does anyone else watch ABC's Lost? I love that show. It seems to be a hit but I don't know anyone else personally who watches it other than me. Do any of you like this show?

How can we obtain a copy of this book? I am assuming it is possible as I see a thread where it can be rated? I read Gateways yesterday and plan on doing the same with Criss-Cross today? FPW, you know your trade as well as Enzo Ferrari knew his. Every book absorbs me from beginning to end. My wife is beginning to despise you... She needs to read the books. By the way, do you practice any particular specialty? Or general practitioner???

from today's Variety online:

Hot off a Golden Globe nom for her work in "Closer," Natalie Portman is in final negotiations to topline the Wachowski brothers' "V Is for Vendetta," for Warner Bros. and producer Joel Silver.

An adaptation of Alan Moore's graphic novel of the same name, action-heavy script was penned by the "Matrix" scribes. Their longtime first assistant director James McTeigue will make his helming debut on the pic. The Wachowskis will produce "Vendetta" with Warners-based Silver.

"Vendetta" takes place in an alternate future in which Germany wins WWII and Great Britain becomes a fascist state. A terrorist freedom fighter known only as "V" begins a violent guerrilla campaign to destroy those who've succumbed to totalitarianism, and recruits a young woman he's rescued -- or possibly kidnapped --from the secret police to join him.

In my opinion this movie went by unnoticed, any fan of sci-fi/action films should give it a shot. I first saw this movie in the theatre prior to the release of Matrix Reloaded and was blown away. Most of the audience leaving that show trumped it as a Matrix-killer and i would have to agree.

This Girl's Life is an intelligent look into the world of internet porn. Juliette Marquis gives an outstanding performance as the net's most popular attraction. James Woods is his usual stellar self as her father who suffers from Parkinsons. The movie is not for everyone as it deals with its subject matter with stunning frankness and there are 2 or 3 look out-of-the-corner-of-your-eye scenes.
