I had an idea, drawing inspiration from thread about people wanting to discuss who would play some of the characters if they made a movie or TV series. It might be fun to have people put in their ideal or even tentative cast of the major roles. Secondary characters would be optional. For example: I or Shazzy could create create a list of the major characters such as, Eve Dallas
Roarke
Mavis
Peabody
Feeney
Dr. Mira
McNab
Any other characters, such as Summerset, Trina, Baxter, etc would go on the optional list. Summerset is a borderline, although I would lean towards him being a major secondary character, just because he is so interesting and appears in almost every book.
A discussion of who people consider should go on the major list and if we should limit it to 5 or 6 characters might be an interesting one. If anyone has an opinion on any of these points, please put them here until and if I have a chance to post the topic.
I also have another idea for a heading. Perhaps we could have a topic relating to each character, and people could discuss their pros and cons, different scenes where they are especially funny or profound, favorite quotes my by that character, or even interesting aspects of their character development. Any other ideas about the character are always welcome; those are just some of my ideas. I don't want to overload the group with topics, so perhaps I could add some and others could add character topics if they feel they want talk about them as well. If you get a minute to stop by, let me know what you think.
I like the "character idea" vanessa..I avoid the area's where a book is talked about I havent read..dont want to spoil it..but its still good to have..so when I get there!...Im a read first book to latest..but I think your ideas above are good..
Thanks Sandi, for your input. Yes, we do have to watch out for the spoilers. I could monitor the questions, or the person posting could indicate possible spoilers. Other ideas would be to make two topics one for possible spoilers and one that does not contain them. I'll have to think about it some. Thanks again!!
Hi Everyone,This message is in regard to spoiler warnings. I have a thread which warns people that all of these topics could have spoilers and so up until now, the warning was considered not necessary. However, I have noticed lately that we have more people who have not read the whole series. So, I'm thinking about putting up a single topic for the personality traits for those who do not wish to be bothered by potential spoilers. Of course, anyone is free to give a spoiler warning on any topic if they feel better about doing that.
There are also quite a few people who want to openly discuss all aspects of the books without having to worry about spoilers and I have to agree that this creates freer and more fun discussions. It's really hard sometimes to avoid giving them. Regardless, some of you may wish to issue a spoiler warning if you name a bad guy or specific clues. I am not forcing the issue, either way.
If anyone would like to give me feedback on this, please put your thoughts on this thread, thanks.
I have an idea about a new discussion, (is that called a thread?) Since we have a discussion about our favorite scenes perhaps we could have one about our least favorite scene. It wouldn't have to be about just a scene it could be about a book or something you find irritating in the book(s)
That sounds like a great idea, Dee. Go ahead and put it up.
