Awesome man, such a great band. This year when I was in the audience we did that chant during Valhalla where the audience just sings "Valhalla - Deliverance - Why've you ever forgotten me?" to the drums, just like the blind guardian DVD from years ago, it was epic to say the least.

Genghis Khan - BBC Documentary

Boise_Lib says...

>> ^ZappaDanMan:

>> ^Boise_Lib:
Fascinating person.
I recommend the series by Conn Iggulden
Genghis: Birth of an Empire
Genghis: Lords of the Bow
Genghis: Bones of the Hills
Khan: Empire of Silver
Very good historical fiction. It's fiction, but Iggulden does a very good job of staying true to history while writing a great novel.

Alright, i'll check them out. Looking for something different anyway, I'm stuck in a non-fiction grind at the moment. Which book do you start with ? are they serialised story telling.. from book to book (like lord of the rings).


Yes, I listed them in order.
They run from Temujin's childhood to Kublai Khan's reign--including the splintering:

Bill Maher ~ Why Liberals Don't Like Bachmann & Palin

The bible is a valid source for all kinds of information, including historical information about real people and civilizations, and is frequently used as a source by historians and archaelogists. The Lord of the Rings is a known work of fiction. There is no comparison between the two, and your statemet is a fallacy to begin with.
>> ^gwiz665:
Quoting the Bible as source invalidates whatever point you want to make. It is not a valid source of information, just as Lord of the Rings isn't either.



@gwiz665, allow me...

LotR wasn't the best example, so take Homer's Iliad: a valid source for all kinds of information, including historical information about real people and civilizations, and is frequently used as a source by historians and archaelogists. And it's not a fallacy. Plus, both books are works of fiction. (But the Iliad is way better, both with historical fact and it's mythological claims... guess thats what you get when the book was written by someone who understands story telling)

The Sean Bean Death Reel

poolcleaner says...

Also, it's important to check out the Youtube comments and the video uploader's description. If you did that, you'd know his non-dying performances outweigh his dying performances. Someone did all that work and now you don't need to: http://www.compleatseanbean.com/deathbycow.html

HE DIES IN:
Airborne - bye bye Toombs
Caravaggio - Rannuccio gets his throat slashed
Clarissa - Lovelace is skewered by Sean Pertwee
Don't Say a Word - Patrick Koster is buried alive
Equilibrium - Death by Poetry - Partridge is blasted away by Christian Bale while reading Yeats
Essex Boys - Jason Locke meets a nasty end in a Range Rover
Far North - Loki is frozen. Naked. In the snow. A chilling end if there ever was one.
The Field - the infamous Death by Cow - Tadgh falls over a cliff, pursued by a herd of stampeding cows
GoldenEye - Alec Trevelyan falls a long way down and is crushed by a satellite dish thing
Henry VIII - Robert Aske meets a gruesome end
The Island - Death by Clone. Merrick is shot in the throat by a nasty grabber thingy with a sharp
hook and a cable that gets wrapped around his neck, and while he's struggling with Lincoln
Six-Echo, the catwalk they're on collapses, and Merrick ends up dangling by the neck. Currently
the most creative dispatch of Sean's career. Definitely well hung.
The Lord of the Rings (The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, The Return of the King) - Death
by Orc. Boromir. Arrows. Need I say more?
Lorna Doone - Carver Doone drowns
Outlaw - Dead Dead Dead. Was there ever any question? Dead.
Patriot Games - Sean Miller is beaten up, boathooked and finally blown up by Harrison Ford
Scarlett - Lord Fenton is dispatched
Tell Me That You Love Me - Gabriel Lewis is stabbed by Laura. Or he stabs himself. We're not
quite sure about this one, actually.
The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion - Death by summoning a god's avatar. Martin Septim (the son of the Emperor, aka The Lost Heir) meets his X-Box end when he attempts to save the world.
The Hitcher - Surely you jest. You need to ask? (There were two different versions filmed. He dies
in both of them.)
War Requiem - The German Soldier dies, but returns in the afterlife

(Leo Tolstoy's) Anna Karenina

National Treasure (But only because of a rewrite. In an early version
of the the script Ian Howe got eaten by alligators in the subways of
New York. Really. Honest. I wouldn't lie to you. I wouldn't.)
North Country
Percy Jackson (Zeus is more or less an immortal so death seems a bit
redundant, really...)
The Practice
Pride
Prince
Punters
Ronin
Samson & Delilah

Romeo & Juliet... What do you think?
Fair Maid of the West ... Spencer doesn't die!
