[QUOTE="jasper, post: 266539, member: 277"] …I have to disagree with you here - the books leave me with ample material to write essays of literary criticism on. The novels definitely are more than just entertainment value, and have intertextuality with some classic works, they have plot as well as story, and the characters are not flat, though sometimes a bit stereotypical. Rav… First Rav I had go look up intertextuality meaning to intermingle while weaving, intertextuality is a term first introduced by French semiotician Julia Kristeva in the late sixties. Just because I said was junk fiction does not mean it lacks plot and story. If lacked plot and story I would have compared to Friends. First jolly ninja I read the dark sword trilogy, the first trilogy, the brother’s books, kaz the Minotaur, the meeting books etc. I just drop, except the big book, which had the history and recipes etc, them from my bookshelves to make room. Hey I drop some of Brooks, Stahselff (the sword books), Niven, etc. I don’t hate all the books they are just junk fiction sometimes above the monthly Star Trek books and some times below. Plus they over used the kinders. Kinders with Minotaurs etc. The first time I read them I was in the Army in California so call it 83 or 84. Now dragon lance. Hey were is the Sgt Carter, Steel metal jacket D.I. I mean the grumpy warrior would likes kids and privates. Oh there you are Flint. Where is Romans and Rebus, um Cain and Able, um put the twins brothers on the set. Yes I know ones a dumb Conan who loves his brother and promise his dearly beloved mom to protect wrestling Ras I mean the wimp. Don’t came me a Whimp. Ras runs outside to cry and slash the director’s tires. Then leaves the knife in bar maid’s car. Hey what is Bruce Campbell doing on the set? I know we need a happy go lucky thief. But even CGI effects don’t make it believed able. Hey bob’s kid is cute let save money and combine the troublemaker kid with the troublemaker thief. Get the Pepsi girl. She’s cute. And people will hate the character any way. Hey love interest we need love interest You buck tooth bar maid you been making eyes at Camp on how would you like to be a star. Ok brother fighting to add time, thief and SSgt arguing to add time, Wait for got the leader. Hey red I know your wedding with the Kennedy’s fail. Take that emotion and work into a brooding character. Hey got a good face. You need a love interest. Ok she has to be warrior. But red Sonja is taken.
