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!)

Re: What is so special about the T-shirt spedbug ?
In Jasper Fforde's "Thursday Next" series of novels, the heroine works for Spec-Ops 27, a government agency that protects literature from "bad guys".
For a really good "layman's" review of the series, go here (http://www.jadeddaisy.net/32/thursday-next).
But then you think wedgies are funny, so maybe we aere different wave lengths
There is a 13-year-old-boy living in my psyche; I can't help it! Does it help for me to say I loved the movie "Amelie"?
By the way and totally off-topic, I finished watching Season One of Project Runway (thank you again!) and am completely enamored of Jay and his brash-and-witty-but-underneath-very-sweet character. I also fell in love with Austin and particularly love his theatrics in the bonus materials! I can't wait for Season Three!
