I like it, very strange and uncanny. But the background is what makes it. Really nice.

Yes, exactly. Happened with an album that is one of my favorites now (Grace For Drowning - Steven Wilson).

I'd say it depends on what you want. US Office is more wholesome but a bit too long and sometimes too goofy. UK... they present the bleakness of everyday life very well, but it isn't as wholesome and flashy as US, I agree. I prefer UK, but have watched US version quite a few times as well.

Yes, this definitely helped.

I would say that LOTR: ROTK has the worst differences in book vs. movie. Gollum actually manipulating Frodo into telling Sam to go home? That was the worst. Because Sam would never and they face Shelob together. I mean imagine you make it to Minas Morgul and travel around with Frodo and he just says:"Go home". I felt that was a bit stupid and given that the characters looked like teenagers, Frodo often comes off as way too whiny.

Thank you for your recommendation, I will.

Yes. very much. I read Grimm's fairy tales when I was little, then I read broken sky by Chris Wooding in elementary school, but never finished, because the library in my school didn't have all books, but I loved those books so much. I read them at some point in my life, because I wanted to know how they ended. And then LOTR, those were also some nice times when I was reading it.

Then I stopped reading for a while because my life took a turn and it indeed was the worst time in my life. For me and I was the worst as well. So I think I am extra nostalgic for those times. But now I am reading again, my girlfriend really got me in to Harry Potter and I'm really enjoying it. I would also love to read Roadside Picnic and Metro for the first time. Excellent books.
