Talking Books & Movies you wished you lived in.

For me it has to be Terry Pratchett's Discworld books, although I'd probably spend all my time in the Mended Drum and the movie would most likely be either Dazed & Confused (what a film!) or Original Sin, for it's dark atmosphere.

What's yours?

Re: Books & Movies you wished you lived in.

Left Behind by Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins - it's about what happens to all the people who are left behind on Earth after Jesus returns to take all His followers. You don't have to be a believer to enjoy this post-apocalyptic novel - bexy knows what I'm talking about, it's an awesome story

I'd choose Roger Zelazny's "Amber" universe, because with the power of Pattern, you can walk to any world your heart desires!!

Re: Books & Movies you wished you lived in.

I know it's not a movie, but I like to have been in Dempsey & Makepeace. Only because I want the drool over Glynis Barber...


Failing that, I'd like to be an X Man...
