Just saw Scorsese's adaptation of The Invention of Hugo Cabret, and I need to gush about it:

( It's about not running from your past but accepting it and finding where you fit now, how you work even after you've been broken. It's about the sadness in childhood -- and the wonder -- and how growing up is a mystery that can be solved at any age. And, perhaps just as importantly, it's about film and dreams. )

books, movies

I love the book!! Glad to hear the movie is good; I'll try to see it soon!

DO. You'll probably love it if you loved the book. Even Brian Selznick loved it.

OMG I DON'T KNOW WHO THAT IS BUT I'M REALLY EXCITED ANYWAY

I've also heard nothing but astronomical praise for HUGO and intend to see it posthaste.

OH sorry he played Mordred in Merlin a couple times. But my point is: THERE'S GOING TO BE AN ENDER'S GAME MOVIE AND IT WILL STAR SOMEONE AWESOME AS ENDER. Whee!

POSTHASTE. You will love it, I'm sure of it.

OMG THAT KID HE IS SO AWESOME. I'd love to see the Val side of him, too. God, Ender is such an amazing role for a 7-year-old kid!!!

I'm glad they've held out, too, cause I feel like (hope) they can finally do The Game graphics the way they should be. WHO WILL BE VAL? WHO WILL BE BONZO? WHO WILL BE EVERYONE? Take a seat, Hunger Games. Or just a step to the side because you still are pretty great actually.

YESSS. HE IS SO SO SO AWESOME. Actually I think he's in his early teens now, but still. To be Ender!

Agreed! With the CGI at hand now, The Game will look super awesome in the right hands. Hopefully. Haha, yes, ridiculously excited for Hunger Games too, in a different way. Lots of exciting book-to-movie adaptations coming in the next couple years!! Like, oh I don't know, THE HOBBIT. DUDE HOW DID I NOT KNOW THAT OUR BB LEE PACE IS GOING TO BE IN THAT? I guess I was just too excited by Benny Cumz & Martin being in the same thing again to notice anything else lol.
