I must have read the whole series 5 times when I was a kid.

They were good books.

What were your favorites?

I read a lot of Star Wars in late elementary/early Junior High but I did not start reading much until I was a Sophomore in High School.

Then this can also be a general nostalgia thread.

I know those books were written in the mid-to-late 60s, but I remember thinking they were pretty ballsy for children's/young adult books - they had no qualms with killing off characters, and depicted serious injuries pretty explicitly.

I should re-read them to see if they still hold up.

Oh, and apparently they're being made into movies, set for release in 2012.

If done well, they could be really, really good.

The Game Gear, now that was good stuff.

Though lasting only 2 hours on 6 AA batteries was crappy.

Good choice, Moris. I guess everyone here spent more time boob tubing it than reading.

Oh ****. I remember those. My mom used to read them to me when I was pretty young, and I read one for a book report in elementary.

The one where those dudes are camping and the one gets carried away by the Wendigo? Or when those two other dudes make that scarecrow? I remember that shit.

I read a lot of those Judy Blume books. In 3rd and 4th grade those were fucking cool, and then in 5th grade apparently they were fucking lame and you were a girl for liking them.
