08.22.13 | I hope it's good, Geoffrey Rush is a wise casting choice |
Rowan5215
08.22.13 | Yeah Rush is gonna do a magnificent job. Just halfway through reading the book now. |
Douglas
08.22.13 | Good one mate, it's a sad but inspiring read |
Rowan5215
08.22.13 | Yeah I'm reading it for school but I'm actually really enjoying it unlike other books that I've studied for school. It's pretty depressing but at the same time hopeful, I hope the movie can capture that. Interesting how there's been no mention of Death regarding the movie yet, it sounds like Liesel's narrating now? |
Douglas
08.22.13 | Yeah that's what I worried about, taking death out of the frame.
Death makes some very poignant point throughout the book, making
Strong plot connections |
Rowan5215
08.22.13 | Yeah those little interjections he gives are some of the most important parts of the book, but I reckon they can pull it off. Just have to wait and see I guess. |
InFiction
08.22.13 | Great read. |
tommygun
08.22.13 | holy shit best book ever gotta watch |
tommygun
08.22.13 | omg |
Douglas
08.22.13 | Yeah, it's a gem. Aus Release is jan 16 |
tommygun
08.22.13 | can't wait
really needs death in the movie (though i'm not sure how they would do it exactly)
he brings so much wisdom and humour to everything it would feel somewhat empty without him
hopefully they just omitted him from the trailer because people who haven't read would be too 'wtf is this' about it |
Rowan5215
08.22.13 | Nah they've announced the full cast tommy and no mention of Death so far, and from the trailer sounds like Liesel is the narrator now. |
tommygun
08.22.13 | rip death :[ |
Rowan5215
08.22.13 | That's deep. |
Rowan5215
08.22.13 | Anyway Geoffrey Rush is God so movie will rule :D |
tommygun
08.22.13 | yeah great casting choice
the girl playin liesel is a good choice too |
Rowan5215
08.22.13 | I don't think I've seen her in anything before but she seems to be from the trailer, yeah. |
Rowan5215
08.22.13 | Actually hang on
"Markus Zusak, author of the book on which the movie is based, has confirmed on his blog that the film will be narrated by the character of "Death," as was the novel. The actor playing Death is as of yet unannounced."
Nevermind I guess lol. |
Douglas
08.22.13 | That's good news, important aspects will be included |
henryChinaski

Douglas
08.22.13 | Yep, hopefully the movie follows in its line |
tommygun
08.22.13 | oh good to hear death is in! hopefully they find a good way to do the whole 'colours in the sky' thing |
