POW #11
Hi all,
Is it just me or are any of you as surprised as I am that it is MAY already?! The year is just flying by! And now it's only 6 months until this year's NaNoWriMo! I'm super excited and can't wait to start writing The Clockwork Universe!
Ok, so i've made yet another banner/header for my site www.caitlinmccoll.ca and I'd like to know what you all think about it! so i've made a poll where you can vote on it. Do you like it, loathe it, somewhere in between? i'm still looking for the perfect site header/banner...i think this one is better than the last one but still...hmmm, I don't know...
Do you like my new site header?(surveys) But wait! There's more! I'm going to do the actual Poll of the Week as well (the above wasn't, I just wanted your opinions on my banner :P).
Okay, so this week's POW i'm asking: if your favourite book (or book series) was made into a film (or series of films) would you run out and see it, no questions asked? or would you be hesitant, concerned that the film won't be able to capture all the magic and everything you love about the books - and of course, taking into account casting of your favourite characters! Myself, i'm torn. They are going to be making a film trilogy (and tv series) of my favourite books, Stephen King's The Dark Tower series. Not released until May 2013 for the first one apparently. I'm really excited! but at the same time, concerned that they won't cast the perfect people, or that they'll miss out key stuff... but Ron Howard (who is directing it last I heard) is a big DT fan, so hopefully he'll be faithful to the books and the characters. I'm thinking i'll still probably go see the movies (and watch the companion TV series - not too sure how that's going to work...but anyways). They did a decent job with all the Harry Potter films, I thought. And of course Lord of the Rings, the movies were so much better than the dry books (even though they changed stuff around and missed out characters from the books etc).
So vote away!
