h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Oh the bunny reenactments! I love those!

Yeah it was pretty scary. Actually the Shining is one of my favourite films, so it's appropriate that Sporkocattus should have said, redrum

angryalien.com Bunnies and 30 sec reencatments. You can't go wrong with that combo.

Murdered...
OMG, the shining was the scariest book I've read though the movie was lame

The book was better. It splained stuff better than the movie did.

Yes! The smell of oranges and the hedge animals *shuddered*

And the party decorations in the elevator.

haven't read book, only seen film. If you read the book and then see the film, can be disappointing. I always think a film should be about being a film, and say something new.

One of my favourite examples of this is Portrait of a Lady by Henry James. The film, directed I think by Jane Campion, brings out the power of the relationships between the female characters, which is done more subtly in the book. I love both the book and the film..sorry if I'm rambling off topic here, but it's very early in the morning and I can't sleep!

Yup. Rambling.

rambling's fun. Hi Sporky. I'm letting him out on his own now, he's suddenly grown a lot. i built a Sporky flap for him to come and go as wishes, (you know like a cat flap)

Although I enjoyed the film Lord of the Rings, I thought it was just a literal translation of the book which annoyed me a bit!

Good you let Sporky out. He need more exercise. All these and friendly people have brought him lately will just make him lazy and unwilling to hunt.

If LOTR hadn't been a faithful telling of the book rabid Tolkienites would have descended en masse and devoured the director.

Funny,I was going to devour the director for missing Tom Bombadillo, and then I saw the insertation of Legalos's cool skateborading trick, so I wasn't that upset.

You're right. Films are separate entities.

Skateboarding elves?

Tom Bombadil

and I´d liked to see the hob eating tree....

...

Yea all these adventures in the Old Forest, lost on screen!

Tom was my fav too.

The Elf swishes his way through the seige at DeepsHelm by the way of a board down the stairs, awesome stunt!

**

I thought Gollum was done really well, extremely repulsive and sinister; yet there was still that poignancy in his relationship with Frodo, cos only Frodo understood how the evil power of the ring had corrupted Gollum!

STOP THAT Sporkocattus. No toes of hootooers to be chewed!
