    i like your Signature Mangoes
    But how does one produce mangoes?
    if i am correct a person cannot make mangoes without a tree and then it is the tree that creates the mango. and chaos is easy and war is chaos so war is easyer to make than mangoes. i like mangoes....

    You should read the book, Nolan! It is a bit of a romance book, but it's actually a really good book. I think you'd laugh at how one character explains sex to the main character. The 'eel' and the 'cave'. lmao It's hilarious! Then when you're done we can go see the movie together!

    You never know till you read it, right? But like I said, it deals a lot with Romance, so you might not like it.

    I seen the movie this weekend and it was pretty good! Of course it wasn't as good as the book, but they never are!!!

    Anyone else see the movie yet? what did you think of it?

    I saw the movie the other day, and I thought it was the most beautiful movie in life! The soundtrack was especially good. I haven't read the book yet, but I'm waiting on a copy. If it's anything like the movie, I know I'll be impressed.

    The sound track WAS really good! I wonder if they have that out in stores yet?
    But if you liked the movie I know you'll love the book because it goes into greater deatil about everything! It's my favorite book!!!!

    Will do. I'm pretty sure the soundtrack isn't out in stores until the movie comes out on DVD. I'm sure you can download it somewhere, though :).

    I just went and saw the movie last night. It was pretty good, but as always, the book is much better. I got it a year ago for my birthday and since then I reread it almost every other month. It never gets boring. It's an amazing book and, although I was really excited about the movie coming out, you don't really need it. The book is so detailed it paints a picture in your mind.

    What a phenomenal book! It's definitely one of the best I've read in ages. Aside from the soundtrack and the pretty scenery though, the film was awful. The pacing was horrible, Hatsumomo wasn't nearly a good enough bitch, they got the kimonos and traditions and everything all wrong but whatever. Nothing can detract from the greatness of the book.
