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. :(

I agree, drutt about the cost of the tee shirt.

I love the Thursday Next series too and am rather taken with that tshirt. Still have yet to read 'Something Rotten'.

Something Rotten is good, so far. I'm about halfway through. IMO, it's not quite as entertaining as Well of Lost Plots but it certainly isn't disappointing, either.

If you buy the tee, make sure to post a pic of yourself in it! :)
