I wanna be Sauron!

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 19 April 2004 10:18 (twenty-two years ago)

Or was that in the other flick?

Cool, then we could fight with our swords!

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 19 April 2004 10:20 (twenty-two years ago)

Or would rather tap-dance until I die of boredom?

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 19 April 2004 10:21 (twenty-two years ago)

so iirc the characters are

Piggy
Ralph
Simon
Roger
Sam & Eric (twins)
Henry
Percival Wemys Madison
The naval officer who turns up at the end

various pigs have bit parts along the way

so who's who?

Now don't you get all high-brow and literate on us!

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 19 April 2004 10:22 (twenty-two years ago)

I've missed someone out, the head chorister with red hair who's a bit of a b4st4rd.

― MarkH (MarkH), Monday, 19 April 2004 10:22 (twenty-two years ago)

I want to kill Piggy, and then be rescued by Momus.

― Ralph, Monday, 19 April 2004 10:22 (twenty-two years ago)

i'll be the dead pilot.

b4st4rd = Jack

― MarkH (MarkH), Monday, 19 April 2004 10:23 (twenty-two years ago)

sorry I meant England.

― MarkH (MarkH), Monday, 19 April 2004 10:25 (twenty-two years ago)

(everyone in the uk studies this book at school Tuomas).

Oh, we just had to read some awful youth novel by S.E. Hinton ("The Gang of Three", or something like that).

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Monday, 19 April 2004 10:25 (twenty-two years ago)

....did you get to listen to the Gang of Four in Music lessons too?

who's going to be the man with the megaphone who orders the kids into the plane which crashes into the island?

― MarkH (MarkH), Monday, 19 April 2004 10:27 (twenty-two years ago)

i'm sure we won't have trouble finding a bigmouthed cunt.

― g-kit (g-kit), Monday, 19 April 2004 12:49 (twenty-two years ago)

g-kit is now King Of ILE for the day.

― VengaDan Perry (Dan Perry), Monday, 19 April 2004 13:25 (twenty-two years ago)

canadian kids havta read the book too. i'd like to be simon (if only for the crazy hallucination trip-fest scene).

― dyson (dyson), Monday, 19 April 2004 13:33 (twenty-two years ago)

"we can use his specs as burning glasses!" (oh no you can't - not with glasses for short-sightedness).

― MarkH (MarkH), Monday, 19 April 2004 13:34 (twenty-two years ago)

Can I just say "it tastes like burning" and then be voted off the island?
