I...Skimming through comments I agree with Kimberly. I loved the book Lonesome Dove, and the movie is wonderful. Robert Duvall just did another western epic like that recently... Broken Trail. Loved it. Makes me want to see if there was a book.<BR/><BR/>How about Disney ride to movie? I went to see Pirates 2 last weekend. I am really enjoying these movies, and it's also my favorite ride from childhood at Disneyland.Angela's Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07084171413220960852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12924401.post-1153599076601903012006-07-22T16:11:00.000-04:002006-07-22T16:11:00.000-04:00True, Mailyn!I have a sometimes blog buddy that to...True, Mailyn!<BR/>I have a sometimes blog buddy that told me awhile ago that Starship Troopers the book is great while the movie wasn't. Not only that, but the movie and book to two totally different entities. The movie does the book a grave injustice. You think you're at least getting an outline of the original book but that is far from the truth. I haven't read it yet, but I promised him I would. I still intend to honor that.<BR/><BR/>LOL, Kristin! Don't feel so bad. If it weren't for the book program, you and I'd be twins, !<BR/>:0<BR/><BR/>Kimbery! Hi! You suffered... through Nicholas Cage? LOL - glad I'm not the only one. *grin*<BR/>Hmmm, I'm not into westerns, but I might give that one a whirl. Thanks!<BR/><BR/>M.E.!! ROTFL!!!!! I checked your blog recently...I think the fangs are perfectly scary. Thanks!<BR/>RE: "scrolling carefully" - Teehee and lots of giggles!<BR/><BR/>Brandy, I never saw Beaches...nor read it. It doesn't seem like a story line that'd float my boat. Good thing people come in all flavors - if not, the world would be boring, eh?Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08573730655117969888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12924401.post-1153513899754830912006-07-21T16:31:00.000-04:002006-07-21T16:31:00.000-04:00Piss!I've gone a put the wrong bloody fangs up!ARG...Piss!<BR/><BR/>I've gone a put the wrong bloody fangs up!<BR/><BR/>ARGH!<BR/><BR/>:o)Emmy Ellishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06348320835897735088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12924401.post-1153434783749903322006-07-20T18:33:00.000-04:002006-07-20T18:33:00.000-04:00The Movie Beaches was good, and the book drew out ...The Movie Beaches was good, and the book drew out the relationship between the 2 main characters. <BR/>Another is Little Women, the 1940's version was pretty good, but the 1990's version with Susan Serandin(sp) was also pretty well done.Brandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02738504696243512495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12924401.post-1153427728262223632006-07-20T16:35:00.000-04:002006-07-20T16:35:00.000-04:00I scrolled this post very carefully...spider wary!...I scrolled this post very carefully...spider wary!<BR/><BR/>I forgot to put fangs on my post today.
