Saturday Detention
The story of a group of kids from different cliques in high school are sent for various different reasons to Saturday detention. They are tasked with writing an essay to explain why they are there. During the movie we find out why each of the individuals have been punished. Each clique is reprsented in this movie. The Jock (Estevez) The popular one (ringwald) The Nerd (Hall) The basket case (sheedy) and last but not least the trouble maker (Nelson) the movie shows us forms of peer pressure and what it is like to try and survive in a difficult high school and difficult life at home. The movie is a drama and shows us that every person has a weakness and is vunerable to emotion. Fun note the lead song by Simple Minds was supposed to be a Billy Idol song but, he turned it down.

Book Rating
I was really excited to read this book. I love all things filled with geekdom but this one was a little too much for me. I felt like this book was filled with so much opinion that I had a hard time finishing it.

The author was funny and it kept me entertained at times but I felt that this was a giant rant about fandoms. I think that this book could have been marketed a little differently. This is definitely a book that would fit in as a literary essay or critical thinking in a science fiction class. I enjoyed it but I really wish there was more to it than rants about specific details.

All in all, I'm not a huge fan but if you like rants or are missing that science fiction fanatic in your life, this would be the book for you.
