Yeah.  It's too bad because it's a good book.  The reviews say that the dialogue is good and funny, but the direction and acting are bad.

You know, this brings up an interesting idea.  If you keep writing in this field, HoM, you've probably got a good chance of seeing one of your books turned into a movie.

That's something I doubt I'll ever see from one of mine.

 Perhaps not, but from the small amount that I have seen of Elantris, it should be. It would be such an amazing movie if they could pull it off well, especially with showing Elantris and the Elantrians. It seems like a movie that I would really like.

It would be a movie, no matter how badly made, I would love.

If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

Quote
With all the sadness and trauma going on in the world at the moment, it
is worth reflecting on the death of a very important person which almost
went unnoticed last week.

Larry La Prise, the man who wrote "The Hokey Poky", died peacefully at
age 93.

The most traumatic part for his family was getting him into the coffin.

They put his left leg in. And then the trouble started.

So it's not really a quote, it's a joke. Big deal.  I quoted it.

heh. I'm glad it didn't recite lyrics. It didn't think we were too dumb.

There was a thread for jokes once, long, long ago. I suppose we could start another. Assuming people have jokes to tell. Most of the new ones I've heard were made up by my three year old and have to do with Star Wars characters. "What do  you get when you mix an orange coat and a lightsaber? An Obi-wan!" Much laughter follows.
