[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1984 For years I heard it proclaimed as great literature and something that will really make you think. No way. It's an ok story but the themes and concepts are so simple. [/quote] It was published in 1949 and sparked the whole idea of Big Brother is watching you. You've heard of things referred to as "Orwellian," haven't you? Pretty impressive for something so simple.[/quote] Yes, I get the reference. Yes, I get that people think it's super impressive. And I still think it's an ok story with simple themes and concepts. And I sincerely hope you understand that before that phrase was coined and since the beginning of civilization people have understand and believed the concept of big brother watching. The idea just didn't occur in 1949....[/quote]
