22 Fictional Characters Whose Names You Don’t Know

Watership Down,
I liked the book, the film was ok
but the stew was my favorite

I recently re-read The Plague Dogs. It's not bad, albeit a bit slow.

If you loved Watership Down you should read The Plague Dogs - brilliant tale of 2 dogs escaping from a research lab and going on the run. I have recommended this to everyone I know.

Even after all these years, hearing that song still terrifies me!

"Bright eyes.... burning like fire..."

*sob*

I was 11 when I saw the movie on it's release. I'd already read the book at school. Yes it's a very dark story, but it isn't something that kids of that sort of age shouldn't be able to deal with. Very educational, without being too traumatic. However it's obviously worthwhile warning kids before they watch or read it that it isn't a happy fairy story about bunny-wunnies.

I remember being brought to watch it as a 'treat' when I was five or six. It was shown in the local library for the kiddies, and the three of us that turned up were brought into a room and left to watch it. No movie has ever traumatised me more. And I'm including being forced to watch Aliens when I was 8 and Christine when I was 4 (gotta love older brothers)

I can't bring myself to either watch the movie or read the book now I'm a so-called adult! I wish I could...

I read Watership Down when I was 15 and really enjoyed it. When I was 23, I read Shardik. It's been my favorite novel ever since.

It's different from Watership Down, but it's also the work that Adams considers to be his best. I agree with assessment.

I'm 43 and this still creeps the hell out of me. I was one of those kids who was shown this animated feature at too young of an age. Now that I think about it, I'm sure it would still creep me out. I guess that confirms that it was a powerful tale.

I love-love-loved this movie when I was as a kid. It's right up there with Animal Farm as far as neat mind opening (for a kid) stories. The social dynamics were so cool. Of course, I had no idea what social dynamic meant at the time, but I knew there was drama.

The movie probably shouldn't be shown to young children, but it -is- a very good adaptation of the book. The TV series.. not so much.

I love the book.

Kindle can silflay hraka.

Great, great book. I re-read it a few years back, after 20 years.

There's a dog loose in the wood...

Great book. Loved it in HS. Wanted to re-read it the other day. Found out that Amazon's Kindle version is $13.99!

Really! After all of this time?

I'm going to the local used paperback store and find a copy for $3. Stick it you greedy publishers.

I hate the film of this so much! everyone thought it was for kids so it kept being shown as a supporting feature to disney and other kids films. Scared the hell out of me, makes me shudder even now aged forty just thinking about it :-(
