80's MOVIES & book nominations

So.... our 80's movies that we'll discuss sometime mid-month are:
The Princess Bride & Labyrinth



Just a reminder, we have a free chatroom here which is open to anyone who wants to use it to coordinate watching at the same time or just to randomly chat.

Oh, and the goal of having more than one is to give you OPTIONS. You can pick one or the other or watch both -- it's all good.



Next up... BOOKS!
List up to four science-fiction books and I'll do the same (pick out the 2 or 3 most popular choices).

I know there are a lot of series out there. Everything seems to be a series lately. I don't know if that's good or bad - but if you're choosing something in a series, I think it's best to start with the first of a series?? What do you think?
Also, if it's widely published and available in various formats, that'd be useful for those who might have a harder time getting their hands on something.

"The Left Hand of Darkness" is another great book of hers. I would have suggested UKL's Earthsea books, but they're not strictly science fiction, more speculative fiction.
