------------------------------------------------------------------------------

meh interests change.....my favorite book is now Macbeth, suprisingly..nice easy to understand Shakespeare play, very violent.

my favorite games are The Legend Of Zelda: The wind Waker,   Chrono Trigger (i emulated it), TLoZ: A link to the past, TLoz: Majora's mask (emulated), TLoZ: Ocarina of time (emulated),
Minecraft & Survival mode, Final fantasy 6 and 7.


I like all kinds of music, but a few shine above, particularly:

  1. classical
  2. Metalica
  3. Metal in general



those are my current interests...until i find new ones

Favorite book(s)

Favorite book(s)

Ender's Game is supposed to be standard reading for 10th grade, But i highly suggest moving on to the other books if you are into sci-fi, politics, war, and philosophy.

Halo!

I do like the Halo books. Halo Legends (short anime), they are really good, and probably the Halo series of Games are pretty good

Have you even watched it?

Have you even watched it? It's a great show. It's quite mature for a "childrens show". It has great "coreography" of the fight scenes and top notch animation. It's also insanely badass at points.

Never called it a kid's show.

Never called it a kid's show. and never said it was poorly animated, so i find your argument invalid. =3

Music: just about anything

Music: just about anything really.
Movies: anything with hot girls, explosions, large weapons, comedy, or an insanely epic and twisty storyline

Games? geez where to start. Halo (all 3), MGS, Assassins Creed(2 rules), Minecraft,  FFR, Gears of War, CoD (3-MW2), Need for Speed (just about all of them), Strategy Games, and your basic shoot to kill games

My favs

Keep in mind, I'm like 30. So my tastes may vary from some of you younger folk ;)

Music: The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Audioslave, Tenacious D

TV: Lost, Lost, Family Guy, Lost, Survivor, FlashForward, Carnivale (old show on HBO that was crap-your-pants awesome), Fringe
Movies: LoTR Trilogy, anything with Edward Norton or Christian Bale(Empire of the Sun is one of my all-time favorites), anything that makes me cry, any movie where I'm like "WTF just happened? (Southland Tales, Mulholland Drive, Fight Club, etc).
Books: Anything by Stephen King. I've read almost everything by him, but my favorites are: The Dark Tower Series(If you haven't read these, stop reading now and read it! NOW!!!!), IT, The Stand, Bag of Bones, and Cell are all very good. All of the Harry Potter books (yeah, I said it!). Lord of the Flies, anything by David Sedaris (humorist), some Dean Koontz stuff, John Grisham books (his earlier stuff, haven't read anything recent).
Games: Gears of War 1 - I cannot explain how much fun I had with this game. I played it way too much. I was very disappointed that GoW2 wasn't as good. Assassin's Creed 1 and 2 (I'm currently playing 2 and like the above poster said, It is awesome!), Bioshock, Mass Effect, Fallout 3, Uncharted, God of War, GTA 4, Minecraft (duh!), tower defense games, online spades, and many more.

Carnivale was so amazing,

Carnivale was so amazing, it's a shame its on the list of "Shows that shouldn't have gotten canceled". It's budget was just too high :/

Also seconding the Lost love. Some of my friends were like "yeah f*** that" when it started getting into time travel. I'll admit, I was against it at first, but it grew on me.

Favourites

Books - To Kill a Mockingbird and Animal Farm*
Music - The Beatles
Games - LoZ: The Wind Waker and Chrono Trigger
TV Shows - Father Ted, Fawlty Towers and David Attenborough documentaries
Movies - Raiders of the Lost Ark, Wall-E (Animation in general, really, especially Disney and Pixar)

*I haven't read an Orwell book that wouldn't be in my top 10 books I've ever read, but Animal Farm really stands out for me as the perfect example of why he was awesome. He didn't need to waste words to tell a multi-layered, moving and funny story.

Young Bond Series

I like the young bond book series because of all the action and adventure! In each book so far James Bond has almost died. (as far as i know, im on 4 of 5) They are making a sixth book and then ending the series and possibly starting up another series with James Bond but he is a little older. If you think you'd be interested here is some info...
Author: Charlie Higson
Book 1: Silverfin
Book 2: Blood Fever
Book 3: Double or Die
Book 4: Hurricane Gold
Book 5: By Royal Command (Out in UK)
Book 6: A Hard Man to Kill (Not out Yet.)
