Does anyone else think Reading Corner should encompass movies and videogames too?

I think movies but not videogames. (I'm biased though, becuase I never play videogames.)

What's the logic behind that? I think if we're including other media types, it should be all other media types. Including paintings and the like.

(that was to NeverMind, btw)

Wow, that's basically exactly what I was going to say.

So, since we're discussing artwork . . anyone else seen "nummer negen: The Day I Didn't Turn With the World"?

You know there's the Parlor room for anything not related to this category, right? So you could talk about video games, movies or anything else there.

Not that I'd try to stop you from posting about videogames here, I'm just saying.

Parlor room is for storygames on CYS.

The Lounge.

Broadening the Category

Too crowded as is.

Broadening the Category

true, the reading corner is vastly underused.

Maybe whoever has control of the site (I don't know who has the power to do this) could convert the reading corner to the Media corner. You know, for forums about books, movies, songs, the news, video games etc.

Yea. I definitely meant to say the lounge.

I think broadening the category to include multiple media types other than books would be a great idea. I mean... I love books and all, but I enjoy my video games profusely.

It would lessen the amount in the lounge as well.

Broadening the Category

I remember somebody suggesting this ages ago and it was shot down because reading is more related to writing stories than video games and movies are, and CYS is a story-writing site.

But personally I don't really mind/care if the category changes.

Gives people something to type about at least.

Broadening the Category

Yeah. Well, since we're talking about other media types, have you guys heard of the new Hunger Games movie coming out? I think it comes out in March.

Broadening the Category

13 years ago

Yeah, but it'll probably be nothing like the books.

Katniss = Jennifer Lawerence Gale = Liam Hemsworth Peeta = Josh Hutcherson

What do you guys think? I don't think they look like the real people, at least, not in my imagination.

Broadening the Category

Me neither. Probably just another hollywood screw up.

Broadening the Category

Never heard of the movie

Broadening the Category

It's not out yet.

So, anyone see the Prom movie? I turned down a date to that yesterday, I wanna make sure I didn't miss anything good.

Broadening the Category

13 years ago

no, haven't seen it. But some parts look good and others look weird. I like my own Prom story, myself. :)

I miss my proms :(

Those were some of the best times of my life.

I guarentee you that you missed nothing. That movie will have neither quality nor realism. The only good thing I can say about it is it's not based on something else.

Broadening the Category

True another none realistic disney screw up.

Broadening the Category

13 years ago

non-realistic, and that's true.

Broadening the Category

I mean make something worth it.

I think Disney is pretty creative, just the stories really suck. Either way, even if you don't think it is worth it, your little kids do, and you're paying for it. Now, don't you miss the old Disney, when they were racist and all? If you're wondering, yes, this is sarcasm.

Broadening the Category

I'm not paying for it. I haven't went to a Disney movie in who knows how long.
