Previous owners left behind their projector, screen, and surround setup. Obligatory pics:
Also man you got Issac, King, Card, Tolkien, Asimov, Koontz, Bradbury...one hell of a collection.

You also have my favorite book of all time, Brave New World. If you want to catch a flick that if you're a nice guy can call an homage and if you're a cynic you WILL call a fat rip off, check out this flick:



IMDB Link:

Equilibrium (2002)

Just read this synopsis and tell me it doesn't scream Huxley:

In a futuristic world, a strict regime has eliminated war by suppressing emotions: books, art and music are strictly forbidden and feeling is a crime punishable by death. Cleric John Preston (Bale) is a top ranking government agent responsible for destroying those who resist the rules. Whe he misses a dose of Prozium, a mind-altering drug that hinders emotion, Preston, who has been trained to enforce the strict laws of the new regime, suddenly becomes the only person capable of overthrowing it. I will say, however, that Christian Bale is fantastic in it.
