Saw Stardust last night

[pegkerr]

We got advanced tickets and went to see Neil Gaiman and Charles Vess' Stardust last night. Great cast, fun movie. Comic, exciting, romantic. We were all delighted with it and the girls said that they'll want to own a copy when it comes out in DVD. I recommend that you see it. It opens August 10.

Wow. It looks really good. And thank GOD they call him Tristan. In the book it's Tristran. And I just couldn't pronounce it! So I said "Screw it. I'm reading it as Tristan."

In the book, the pirate ship part takes maybe two pages. There's no sword fighting or anything. Just a mention that it was some of the best times of their travel.

And I can't tell by the trailer but at the beginning and through a good part of the book, Yvaine really hates him.

I'm looking forward to this!

. . . at the beginning and through a good part of the book, Yvaine really hates him. Yes, they stay true to the book in that way!
