You can hate me now.

Bad news: I knew it was going to happen, I could feel it, but I prayed otherwise. Unfortunately, The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay *is* indeed being made into a movie. Production starts in March 2004, and I will have more details as I collect them. I must go sharpen my knives now.


Good news: I saw Return of the King today thanks to the always up-for-it [livejournal.com profile] kattiya. And dude it was so good words cannot begin to describe my love for Peter Jackson. I want to throw myself at his feet and attach myself to his ankles to be close to his greatness. He could now make a movie about peeling potatoes and I'd still be all over it.

More good news: We had dinner with [livejournal.com profile] happyminion and [livejournal.com profile] nebt_het and got everyone’s favorite Southern belle to try raw oysters and sushi. We’re all very proud.

Last I heard, Chabon was writing the screenplay himself. That was a while ago, but if that's still true, I'm going to refrain from judgment until more information becomes available.

We've had sushi in the south for years. We just call it bait.

Sorry. I couldn't resist. ;)

You saw it?!?!?

*jealous*

Soo very jealous.

Ok and I apologize for being ignorant but is it a bad thing that they are making that book into a movie? (I am unfamiliar with it)

I read somewhere that they're fingering Adrian Brody for the part of the American.

Last I heard, it was a Scott Rudin film with a Chabon screenplay. Here's hoping for the best.

Dude. I saw RotK last week and it was just amazing. Also, gay. But mostly, amazing.
