So, I finally got around to watching "The Notebook" last weekend. At the end, I laughed when Don said to me, "You do realize they're dead, right? They aren't just sleeping. They're dead."
Was the book any better than the movie? Because it took us like 2 seconds to figure out the old couple was Noah and Allie. |

I thought the movie was better. His writing is way to sappy for me. There are some differences but nothing too big. I think it's pretty obvious too in the book that the couple is Noah and Allie.
In the book Noah doesn't die.
Sorry if that is a spoiler. |

No, I don't care. I probably won't read the book. I don't know, maybe. But, I must say...Ryan Gosling...hubba hubba!
One other thing about the movie, it was supposed to be summer in the south. You could see their breath in almost every outdoor scene. |

Yup, that is the big different. There is a sequel to the book...The Wedding. Can't so much with the movie.
And his writing is sappy. But sometimes when there isnt any sap in your life, you need to read some.
And agreed...hubba hubba Ryan Gosling. Canadiana at it's finest. |

This reminds me of 'Spaced'
Daisy: Colin's gone.
Tim: What?
Daisy: He went next door.
Tim: Oh, Daisy, I'm so sorry. How did it happen?
Daisy: [Bemused]... He walked.
Tim: Right, right, sorry. See, my mum used to use "going next door" as a euphemism for being dead.
Mike: Whoa, hold on, does that mean my rabbit's dead?
Tim: It's been eighteen years, Mike, where did you think he was?
Mike: [whimpers] Next door!

Heh heh heh, very funny.
Reminds of of the Friends episode where Phoebe finds out her mother turned off the sad movies before the sad parts happened.

| Okay. I watched it again Monday. I guess I am finally willing to admit that she died in the end. She died. |
