I loved A Little Princses.
I wasn't a fan of Harry Potter 3. The book was my favorite in the series at the time, so I had high expectations. And I definitely did not enjoy changing the landscape, having them wear normal clothes, and placing the scenes out of order, i.e. the firebolt scene.

...and I can't get the image of Brenden Fraser in a loincloth in George of the Jungle out of my head.
See, now I'm going to have that image in my head when watching that... XD
Besides, Les Miserables has more of a longer-lasting effect on you than Stacey's Big Mistake or something.
I would hope so :)
You remember so much about the Baby Sitter's Club books because at the beginning of every single one, they gave a rundown of the entire series- like who everyone was and their family history and how the BSC got started.
I was discussing this at rehearsal the other day. We were in the Black Box and there was a BCS book laying around and there was a massive discussion over how we used to read them and which characters we loved, and how they always gave that run-down...
I was a BSC book for Halloween one year...
Silence = Death, how can you not like Finding Nemo? I loved it! We had to rewrite a well-known story in drama the other day and my group did Finding Nemo... part of our ending included the seagulls learning a new word- "YOURS!"
I squeed LOUDLY when I was reading Anthony's interests, because on his booklist is A Home At The End Of The World- thats my favorite book EVER(well, favorite FICTION book). I read it on the bus ride to Disney World, the entire thing just blew me away.

I saw the movie first, actually.
I love all three of Michael Cunningham's novels. I read The Hours a couple of years ago, then got A Home... for Christmas. I got really excited when I found Flesh and Blood at a used books store for $7. Now I own 'em all!
As for the Baby-Sitters' Club books... I used to read the first page, then skip the rest of the first chapter, because I REALLY didn't need to read the family descriptions every. freakin'. time.

The movie for AHATEOTW was really good, it followed really closely to the book because Michael Cunningham wrote the screenplay for the movie.
I did Claire's inner monologue about how the boys would come home and take care of Rebecca and her little spiel about wondering how long Snow White could have lived happily with the dwarves for an audition once.
Fizz is my new best friend!
Aww! *love*

I don't get why people like Finding Nemo so much! I don't think I ever had enough of an attnetion span as a kid to watch a movie that long, and I definitely don't now. That and it was about fish. Fish swimming. And seagulls. I think the only thing that I learned from that movie was to not tap on fish tanks.

You're going to love it!
I picked up the book on a whim at Target last March, cause I was getting those little travel toiletries for the Disney trip and wanted to see if they had any decent books to take on the bus... and I couldn't put it down, I stayed up as late as I could without the light bothering anyone, and when I drifted awake in the middle of Atlanta ay 7 AM the next day picked it right back up.
Then realized the book cover said it was also a movie and flipped out.
Silence- I don't know, I just found it adorable

Well, the fish were trying to kill themselves. That's what would of actually happened if the tank got that dirty...That's all I think of at that part of the movie.

I read it in a couple of days after Christmas. I'm REreading it now! But it's even better the second time, now that I'm taking my time with it. I'm trying to explain my favourite paragraph, but I can't! I read it the first time, but it seemed so much more beautiful this time around... it's where Jonathan as a young boy talks about there being all different kinds of beauty.
They weren't trying to kill themselves. They were trying to make the tank dirty so that they'd have to be taken out of it and Nemo could escape.
Yes. That's the point in the movie.
In reality, if the tank was that dirty, there would be MUCH less oxygen, thus sufficating. Also, the ammonia would build up and poison them.
And if those fish are like goldfish, if the conditions were bad enough, they would try to jump out of the tank to get away from the grim.
