Over the weekend I saw Stardust. I'm a big fan of Mr. Gaiman so I was very interested in seeing how the movie would do. I'm pleased to say that it is a wonderful type of magic. The story and some of the characters differ from the book but the heart of the tale is still there. The ending was changed but I couldn't say for certain it was for the worst or better, just equally satisfying as the book.
I hope more people find this little movie and give it a chance. So far, it looks as if the audience is having a terrible time finding Stardust. Ah well, there's always DVD.
If you haven't noticed already, I have a link on the right to Neil Gaiman's website and journal. You are always going to find something interesting or insightful or panda-ish there. I would recommend his books to any lover of fantastic fiction.
Perhaps if you blow out your candle and wish real hard, clap twice and spit into the wind, the Good Omens movie will happen.
Maybe if you catch a falling star.
