Movies and TV / Hogfather
« on: December 23, 2006, 04:20:57 PM »
So I managed to find a bittorrent of the BBC's Hogfather miniseries. It's a good adaptation, though I wouldn't say excellent just because much of the humor didn't seem to make the transition from page to screen (probably due to time and style. You can't exactly put footnotes on-screen). I'm actually surprised at how well the scenery and such are put together, and some of the characters (Susan, Alfred, Ponder Stibbons) are spot-on. Others aren't quite how I imagined them (Death's voice could have been deeper, and Teatime talks like Willy Wonka), but overall I'm enjoying it.

Sadly, so far I've only been able to see part 1. Mrs. M seems to like it well enough so far, and we'll be watching part 2 later today.

Everything Else / Checking in on Leading Edge

Hey, I was just checking out Leading Edge's web page to see if Issue 52 is out yet. The page appears to have vanished. Does anyone know if this is just a technical quirk, or if something more serious is afoot? When I moved in June, I was pretty sure the account was good until at least March 2007 or so, and it's been down for over a week now.

Thanks.
