You're on a desert island...

You know you're about to be trapped on a desert island.

You may take one of the following -

> One book
> One album
> One DVD
> One VHS
> One videogame
> One other person

You have all the necessary equipment to play said VHS's, DVD's and albums. They won't get ruined by sand, so you can bring your faves. And the person you bring won't mind being on the desert island because it's awesome, so you don't have to bring someone to punish them Wink

You'll be there for a month or so, so your DVD doesn't have to be "How to Survive on a Desert Island" or whatever.

Mine;

Book - A Bit of a Blur by Alex James (his autobiography)
Album - Modern Life is Rubbish by Blur
DVD - Either the obvious or Blur live at Hyde Park. Probably Blur, cos that's like three hours of continuous awesomeness, but every SW movie has its faults (I will heartily debate this somewhere else Wink

)
VHS - The Lion King, Jungle Book or A Bug's Life.
Person - I don't know, not a celebrity, I'd choose someone I know. Or a chef. I heart seafood.
Video Game - Skyrim (never played it but whatevs), Chrono Trigger, Tony Hawk's Underground or Ocarina of Time. Probably Skyrim, cos I never really get to play Massive open world games and it would never, ever get boring. I could probably spend forever on a desert island with Skyrim. One with loads of gameplay time.

EDIT - Minecraft. Definitely Minecraft.

One book: Of Limited Loyalty by Michael A. Stackpole (currently reading, so I need to finish it)
One album: AC/DC "Black Ice"
One DVD: Ben-Hur
One VHS: The Empire Strikes Back
One videogame: Skrim (I can easily spend the whole month playing this)
One other person: Kate Beckinsale. Hey, my chances go way up when there is just the two of us alone on an island for a month. Cool

Hmm, maybe I should have brought a romantic comedy...

One Other Person - My friend Bex, she's going through a tough time and could use a months break Laughing

It seems Skyrim is the (obvious) overall choice for Video game!

Oh, and Fate, The Hobbit wasn't written by C. S. Lewis. Wink

It would've been even better (in my opinion) if it had been though.
