Yet another question

[spedbug]

Does anyone know or has anyone heard if there's a movie in the making based on the Jasper Fforde "Thursday Next" series of novels? I'm reading Something Rotten at the moment and think the man is the most bloody brilliant farcical writer in a long time. I'd love to see Hollywood do the character of Thursday Next justice but I'd bet they had someone completely wrong play her...someone sexed up for the screen.


(I'm seriously considering this purchase!)

*Edited to add: I just converted GBP to USD and as much as I'd like this t-shirt, I'm not paying over $25 for it. :(

Well... I haven't heard of anything... but I'd love to see that movie....

But I'd prefer if it was a British/European production....


Oh.. and go any buy that shirt... I have the same!!;-))

I think I'd prefer it be a British production, too (just so long as it made it to America, eventually).

I could buy the shirt...or I could go buy "Once Upon a Mattress" on DVD, right now, at my local book/music store. Immediate gratification and thoughtless consumerism is the American way! ;) I'm off to Borders to buy a DVD. Weee!

Hehe!

I normally end buying both.....:-D

If I hadn't indulged myself (and Savagefuzzball) so much, recently, I probably would buy both but, recently, I've spent more money on frivolous items than I should have.
