Predestination - Twitchin Kitten - 01-26-2015 Has anyone seen this? Any Robert A. Heinlein fans here? IMDB page for the movie Based on the Heinlein book, "All you zombies" - one of his short stories and earlier works. Movies don't usually do Heinlein books justice, but this one really did. Starship Troopers sucked big time compared to the book. The Puppet Masters sucked and didn't even leave a memorable mark in my head. synopsis: The life of a time-traveling Temporal Agent. On his final assignment, he must pursue the one criminal that has eluded him throughout time.
RE: Predestination - Biker Dude - 01-26-2015 I'm a huge fan of Heinlein. But I don't know this story. Most of his stuff wouldn't translate well. Starship Troopers was a joke. I will maybe see this one. If it currently out,, or a coming movie? RE: Predestination - Twitchin Kitten - 01-26-2015 If you have a Kindle I'll get you a copy of the book if you want. Not sure if it will work but I know how to extract it out of the device and all that good stuff. It's a good story. The movie followed it very nicely without much reinterpretation. He's my favorite sci-fi author. Been reading him since I was 10. My first book was Stranger in a Strange Land. RE: Predestination - Biker Dude - 01-26-2015 Stranger is a good story. I like 'The Cat Who Walks Through Walls' and all the Lazarus Long stuff myself. I don't have a kindle, but I have a tablet with the kindle ap. While I do miss actual paper books, this is so much easier. RE: Predestination - Twitchin Kitten - 01-26-2015 There is some kind of way to share books. I'll find out. Should work on your kindle app too. Cat is one of my favorites. I named one of my foals after Pixel. The whole Methuselah's Children thing can get confusing. He literally had a wall with diagrams, timelines and family trees and all his books connect to it one way or another. Matt's working on a website where he can share audio, digital and other books, comics, movies and the like. He has the entire Heinlein collection in audio books.

RE: Predestination - Twitchin Kitten - 01-26-2015 Oh and if you or anyone else is interested, I can start a lending thread somewhere. |
