Bradbury wrote Fahrenheit 451 as a love letter to books, right? I can see him getting upset that his original purpose gets missed, but I think his point goes hand-in-hand with the censorship theme.

I thought he might have Asperger's.

Well yeah, but I still want to see someone try it.
You know those lifts cheerleaders do where two cheerleaders lock their hands and launch a third cheerleader into the air? I've always wanted to see some team try that to block a field goal.

It's dangerous to go alone!
The price depends on where you live. I live in Texas, and there's a theater near me that has tickets for $7. $4.50 for a matinee.
