My folks went to Caprica and all I got was this frakking avatar.
I started reading The Amityville Horror in High School, as I had already read a lot of Stephen King's stuff and was developing a taste for the horror genre.

And it wasn't that TAH was bad, in fact it scared me so drat bad I refused to finish it.

Does that qualify with the general idea of the thread?

I normally really enjoy most of Stephen King's work, but I could NOT finish Lisey's Story.

Tried Fellowship twice, had similar problems. I'm trying to work up the courage to try again, but I'm failing at it.




If you can get past Bombadil, it picks up a little. Even more when they enter Moria.

That's one thing PJ and Bakshi got right - Tom Bombadil, as amusing as he is to the drooling fanbois, is totally unnecessary to the story.
