Book: Keeper of Dreams by Orson Scott Card
Movie: Synecdoche, New York (a fantastic film for all kinds of people. I cannot do anything to endorse because the trailer is terrible, the plot summary is terrible and the posters are terrible)
Food: Potatoes

I'm having trouble with picking one book! When I moved here 5 years ago I had to sell all my books and I only brought 8! But since then I have fallen in love with so many more! Movie would be The Wizard of Oz
Food would be pasta.
I'm going to think on the book for a while!
Book: The Isles, by Norman DaviesFilm: Grease, thus I would have both good music, and the film that cheers me up
Food: sushi
I think I'm going to have to stop reading these replies...at least until after dinner...you guys are making me hungry!!!!
Book : safe heaven Moive ; he's just not thAt into you
Food : ummmmmm I can't pick lol but maybe something like cornflakes :/
Since it's my question I`m going to cheat...my book would be the Harry Potter books all in one! Lol!
You're not crazy, Tracy. I would pick the Holy Bible, as well. If you think of it, it consists of 66 books. It covers history, romance, etc. This book will last you a long time to read & think about. It is also a book that I won't be tired of repeatedly reading certain parts. I can always learn new lessons, too. If I'm allowed a second book, I would have a journal to accommodate it. Otherwise, I would write my personal notes in it. If I can't have a writing utensil, I would still choose this. This book is something that I wouldn't mind to refer back to.
Book: HP (Can I get the box set?)Movie: Dirty dancing
Food: Definitely PASTA!
I'm adding a bonus... ;)
Song: Don't stop me know by Queen
I am stuck on an island. I'm reading The Timekeeper, listening to The Elegance of the Hedgehog,and writing to all of you. I miss a few things though. Mostly I miss traveling. posting from Guam
Book - the whole and completed Song of Ice and Fire box setFood - high quality sushi and sashimi combinations with wasabi and pickled ginger and soy sauce.
Movie - Game of Thrones the whole and completed series so some of this requires the future.
Book: Divergent Book Set (1, 2 & 3) OR The Mortal Instruments Book Set - can't decide...Movie: The Boy in Striped Pyjamas
Food: Pizza oooorr PASTA
Book - The Great GatsbyMovie - Avatar
Food - Lets not pick something sensible for survival.. lets go with tons of crates full of many kinds of chocolate!

AGREED!!!!
AGREED!!!!
Book: Infinite JestFlick: The Empire Strikes Back
Food: Balsamic herb lamb chops
Album: Liquid Swords
Book: The Hobbit & The Lord of the RingsMovie: The Mummy (although Avatar is a close second)
Food: Omelette with spinach, mushroom, tomato, and mozarella
I also thought of the bible, but not because I'm super religious or anything - it would just be long and thought provoking (and time-consuming) the way les misarables or art of war would be, which I also considered.
Book: Wyrd sistersmovie: Pride and Prejudice (bbc)
Food: did someone mention coffee???? yes please......
Food: granola with M & M's
No book or movie. Just paper & pencil for a lot of journaling.
