It's number three on my post-VCE to-do list, lol, so I was wondering if anyone else is seeing it next week?

The book is next on my list and then the film! I am not sure what to expect, as it is an adaptation

But I am seeing perks of being a wallflower tomorrow!

It's really not that hard to quantify..., but I believe that being raped once is not as bad as being raped five times, even if the one rape was by a gang of people.

I won't deny that it definitely looks a bit "eh" but I've read it three times and I'm really keen to see how it turns out. I'm just going to treat it as a totally separate entity or something and cross my fingers that it doesn't change my feelings about the book.  :)

saheh, I didn't know Perks was out already! It looks like a very true adaptation, maybe with less of the sexual abuse undertones? Did you like the book? I probably won't see it because it's not really my thing anymore. :(

Perks is out on the 29th!!!!!! Can't wait for it, Logan Lerman is a brilliant actor.
One film I'd defs recommend is Argo. Ben Affleck is the director and main actor in it. So intense and suspenseful. Wouldn't be surprised if it was nominated for an Oscar in several categories.
I want to see Les Miserables as well, but it's out in December I think :)
