The Road starts November 25 actually, and from all I've read and heard according to preliminary screenings, the movie's been made very well and also was made faithfully to the book. :)

I'll fix it, thanks! If it's faitful I have to assume there are scenes they will not include! I love McCarthy but his imagination is so horrifying* sometimes.

*hprrifying like my spelling!

There's only one scene not included (showing the baby). Other than that, it's all in. He is gruesome, but could it happen? Scary thought.

The baby was the bit I hoped not to see. I've heard they were talking about making Blood Meridian and as amazing as that book is, I don't think I'd want to see a version that did much more than allude to certain things.

Have you seen it? The Road, I mean? Or have you just read reviews?

Haha, nice! :) That sweater. He wore it on the buzzcocks a couple of weeks ago and got called an owl (I think that was on the show, or maybe that's just what I thougt), a pedophile ski instructor, and a roadie for Bjork. ^_^

A few fun pics of this same DVD release party have turned up on Twitter. Hopefully there are mor to come! Thanks!
