*lips slightly parted* Have you read Book Club or Fifty Shades of Grey?
gpt
No I haven't.  I've seen commercials for both movies and Book Club looks interesting.  I like Diane Keaton, Candice Bergen, and Mary Steenburgen.  Have you read the books?
human
*lips slightly parted* I havent, I did see the movies, the Book Club movie was pretty good and Im guessing the book is better, the movie grossed around 12 million
gpt
*relaxed posture* I think Book Club mentions other books such as Moby Dick and Fifty Shades of Grey.
human
Well its a romantic comedy novel,  and yeah books like Fifty Shades are referenced in it also Don Quixote, so seems interesting
gpt
I think mentioning other literature like A midsummer Night's Dream in the movie can inspire readers and movie watchers to read more.
human
I agree that would be a good way to inspire readers specially fans of the novel, do you like to read?
gpt
I used to. I just don't seem to have the time any more.  You know what I think is interesting is that the olympics used to have literature as an olympic event up until 1952.  It's a shame they don't anymore.
human
It was?  I heard architecture and paiting were events as well but didnt know literature was another one
gpt
Yes it was along with music, painting, and even sculpture.  It really seems like back in the day art was valued much more than now.
human
*eyes widen* It sure was, I think it should remain an olimpyc event, it may not be a sport but it would be interesting to watch, a prize for the best artist
gpt
i agree with you completely.  Did you know that Winston Churchill won a nobel prize for literature?  You would think it would be for peace or some other government related event but instead it was for writing.
human
I didnt and I agree it does seen odd he must have some pretty good novels or pieces, you know romantic kissing is like a new development!
gpt
Is it really?  It seems like something people have been doing since the beginning of time.  Do you know when it started?
human
Not sure, but its a recent development according to the article, you know what makes me angry? censoring books like the FDA, they burn down 6 tons of books
gpt
That is bad. They must have done that years ago. I don't remember anything recent about burning books.  In today's world even if they did the book would be online so we no longer have to worry about censorship.
human
Yeah I agree, its a good thin we have online book stores now but still why burn books doesnt seem like the right thing to do, do you know who Tom Hanks is?
gpt
I do know who he is.  Is he a favorite actor of yours?  As far as comedy goes I like bill Murray.  You know he said that kung fu hustle is a supreme achievement in modern comedy.  Weird but funny.
human
Yeah he is one of my favorites for sure, he is actually the highest all time box office star and was  over 8.5 billion in earnings, thats pretty impressive I must say
gpt
It definitely is. It's much more impressive than the movie Trojan Wars. It had a budget of 415,000,000 and earned only $309 at the box office.
human
Wow that is sure disappointing, they only earned $309? that must be a total failure for sure
gpt
It must have been. I messed up by the way.  The budget was $15,000,000.  Sorry for the confusion.
