    Great Books that Should Be Made Into Movies and Which Actors Would You Cast?

    well, in the Hebrew translation of the Bible it is clear that the term angel (or messenger) is in the masculine form and thus all angels are male and Satan was the ultimate angel fallen from grace, so it would have to be a guy

    Great Books that Should Be Made Into Movies and Which Actors Would You Cast?

    hmm . . . i think anything that requires the voice of God should be done by James Earl Jones. I think the devil has best been played by Al Pacino. And I think the other two you quoted are mediocre actors at best and should never be seen in a quality film, such as should be made for such...

    Great Books that Should Be Made Into Movies and Which Actors Would You Cast?

    interesting article, which reminds me that stephen king is probably one of my favorite authors. i like some clancy, as well. just noted those in the articles.

    Great Books that Should Be Made Into Movies and Which Actors Would You Cast?

    hmm. i like james patterson, i especially loved suzanne's diary to nicholas, which was his break-out from psychological thriller into tear-jerker. a lot of my books i get from either my grandmother (who just died but left me her entire book collection, including many collectibles and ancient...

    Great Books that Should Be Made Into Movies and Which Actors Would You Cast?

    oh, i saw both of those (troy and KOH). neither were something i'll rush to see again, but mainly due to script writing and directing rather than acting. i thought brad pitt was yummy, though!

    Great Books that Should Be Made Into Movies and Which Actors Would You Cast?

    LOL! I have only been on this site for a few days, so haven't read many posts yet. I'll have to check out Mary Janice Davidson. Do you like the Kinsey Millhone stories (A is for Alibi, etc.)? I think those are pretty fun, too. I loved Hugh Jackman in Kate and Leopold. I like him with...

    Great Books that Should Be Made Into Movies and Which Actors Would You Cast?

    i so agree on almost all parts (except i would be giving the bath to viggo ha), but haven't seen orlando in much else yet. remind me what else he has been in? i want to see elizabeth town, but haven't rented it yet. oh, and i haven't seen sin city, so can't say either way.

    roflmbo! you are my kind of girl (edited to add - whoops! read your profile and it says you are male or was that just an accident because you haven't filled one out?), although i disagree with walkin. he would give me the creeps or the giggles (thinking of champagne man from SNL)! LOL i...

    Just formally introducing myself

    I accidentally posted on another new member's introduction, so thought I would try to move that and start my own introduction. I have just recently started enjoying fantasy. I had always enjoyed the LOTR/Hobbit books, but never looked past them, but recently started picking up books here and...

    Harry Potter Seventh Book Pre-Sales Speculations and Discussions

    no, i didn't know about the others. however, she hints about all kinds of things. killing him off wouldn't stop people infringing on trademarking and writing prequels or even bringing him back to live or side stories to follow along with what happened at school or whatever. there are plenty...

    Harry Potter Seventh Book Pre-Sales Speculations and Discussions

    i agree about the writing - i think she could have brought more of the romance out in that one. however, you really think harry needs to be taught a lesson about the pain of losing someone he loves? or are you just joking? were his parents not enough? sirius? and then dumbledore? you...

    did you not see pulp fiction? travolta was oozing with bad boy sex appeal! he wasn't bad in face off either. oh, and i agree about viggo. he is a hottie and he was perfect for Aragorn. can you imagine if they had let stuart townsend stay in the role? just can't see it - no way!

    Great Books that Should Be Made Into Movies and Which Actors Would You Cast?

    the "old" travolta. i think he looks great, even better older - more filled out. the main character for the book i mentioned is an older man with grown children, so it has to be an older guy. i mentioned harrison ford, but feel he is so overused. i don't see al pacino as this character...

    Just formally introducing myself

    Hi! I should also introduce myself. I have just recently started enjoying fantasy. I had always enjoyed the LOTR/Hobbit books, but never looked past them, but recently started picking up books here and there in the science fiction/fantasy department of Half Price Books and really find that I...

    Great Books that Should Be Made Into Movies and Which Actors Would You Cast?

    Well, I'll have to think on this one, but of the ones I have read recently that I thought might make a great movie (agree with the action statements) is The Eleventh Commandment by Jeffrey Archer. It would probably be a good Harrison Ford movie or someone along those lines, as he is an older...

    Harry Potter Seventh Book Pre-Sales Speculations and Discussions

    whoops! i didn't mean to start a new thread and i forgot to put *spoiler* in mine! i am pretty certain voldemort will die (i'm about 50/50 on harry, but i pray not). i think mcgonagall will die, as well as snape. and i think hermione will be the one that will come to hogwarts as a teacher...

    Harry Potter Seventh Book Pre-Sales Speculations and Discussions

    yes, but that is just it - he must either kill or be killed. it doesn't say he to do both, but i do worry a bit about it. when dumbledore says that he thinks a part of voldemort was transferred to harry during the curse, i wonder if perhaps that is a horcrux of some sort. then, harry must...

    Pirates of the Caribbean 2

    Well, I think #1 was better, as it was a movie in and of itself - set apart - and not dependent on another movie to finish the plot. I also thought the violence and gore was over the top for #2 and was unnecessary in many parts, especially in that it is supposed to be a "family" film. I was...

    Harry Potter Seventh Book Pre-Sales Speculations and Discussions

    Who do you think will die in #7? Obviously, I think Voldemort will die. I also believe Neville Longbottom might die. I believe Professors McGonagall and Snape will die. I think Hermione will be the one to go on to teach (in McGonagall's place). There are hints that Ron may die, but I...

    Your age

    I'm glad to see I'm not the only "older" HP fan. I started reading all of them when the first movie came out (all of the ones that had been published to date). I can't remember when that was, but I am 33 now (just turned 33) and a place I can post to other older HP fans. I read it initially...
