I did not get a complete novel, so I also got inspirations from the two movies (1987 and the unfinished one's stills. Thanks smazuga for providing me this information

)
Again I want to bring a bit modern sci-fi style for old book. So, tell me how you feel if you had read it?

oh my friend! it's very good done! ok, yes, I have been read the book, but not had watch the movies (and also exist PC game))
the novel is incoplete in original, bros did not write the pure ending, as I know. it's great, cause you (the reader) have free imagination.

So in the book.. They didn't give a definite ending?
But in the film there is a clear ending. The protagonist broke the rules, to save his wife(GF?).

ah man you catch me!! I am feared I don't remember how it ends! but my feelings after that were bitter and gloomy. Rumata had no hope "to remake" people, he can not turn them to be better, brighter, turn them to science and good human relations - they were accursed poor villains, they all in masses!!
I am so sorry! Now I am mad fanat of HP Lovecraft and JR Tolkien ))) so, I read their books in english now - and could not answer you (((
(GF?) - what do you mean? I can not understand this secret code))
ok, I think, Strugatskye had the GREAT idea - so GREAT as they could not translate it in one - or two - or three - or in all their books while they were alive! This is titanic work!
Also, if you have time and (hot heart and totally free will, of course) you can watch fantastic clever and.... eh.... dangerous movie. I think this is the cruelest thing I know. [link] (To kill Dragon - movie by Zakharov, based on Schwarz's novel)

and for fun and relax - another style [link] this movie [link]

My bad English .. I was mistaken GF as a common abbreviations of girlfriend. Lovecraft and Tolkien reader also am I, may not .. mad, but I am definitely a fan

Hobbits will release until late January in my place, it's a long wait, I will watch the two movie you recommend! ~Thanks!

Best holydays to you! )))

A behind Happy New Year 2U2~ In the movie she did not die and was the only one saw "gods" came. I had watched the 3 movie, most by the guesswork. Hottabych 2006 and 1956, very slow rhythm although

Completely different mental impressed the changing times, it is worth lamenting.

~smazuga Jan 5, 2013 Hobbyist General Artist

LAMENTING???!!
eh... please, explain it a bit clearer
happy new year!!

~SharksDen Jan 5, 2013 Professional Digital Artist

~PushiZZZZtic Dec 18, 2012
