@madmartigan21 Burned-
a. To cause, to undergo combustion.
b. To destroy with fire: burned the trash; burn a house down.
c. To consume (fuel or energy, for example): burned all the wood that winter.
Burnt-
1. affected by or as if by burning; charred
Now, this is being a grammar cop.
While both are 'ACCEPTABLE' in middle school, this is the exact definition. All I did was point out that burned was the past tense of a VERB, and burnt is an ADJECTIVE. Don't freak out, it's over.

@3046718pancakemix Hey grammar cop, perhaps it's better to know what you're talking about before criticizing. BOTH burned and burnt are acceptable spellings of the past tense of burn. Look it up.

Ok I gotta agree with Montag on this one. That show Mildred is watching is mindless garbage.

i think you didnt do very good on following the book...sorry

Just one thing: it's "mechanical hound" not "electronic hound". I realize that's perhaps a bit nit-picky, but it bothered me to see you get something simple like that wrong. They are not the same thing. Mechanical makes you think of moving parts, while electronic makes you think of computers and such. (At least in my mind.)

The movie itself summarizes the book rather well. I wouldn't recommend using it as a substitute for not reading (ironic...?) just because there's a lot of omitted detail. Of course youtube has it's limits so I digress.

@monus782 I'm pretty sure it's from the beginning of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
What is this background music/creepy tunef from?

One thing though, "...and he'd do anything to save the things he once BURNED." Burnt is the past tense of burn, burned is the process of burning...

@3046718pancakemix Yep. I'm honestly surprised I didn't make even more spelling errors when I made this way back when.

At the beginning Montag has red eyes and later on has blue. Did you do this on purpose, as everyone good has blue eyes while everyone bad eg. mechanical dog has red eyes.

@AH7012 That's about the gist of it. It's a bit heavy handed I admit, but it's a clear visual way to show who's "enlightened" and who is not.
