We're Getting Moist
Next in line of the Discworld books to be filmed by Sky Channel is Going Postal, slotted to air sometime in April. kattahj mentioned the book in one of her latest posts, so I went to the Sky website to see if I could glean any info about the film.
I haven't been altogether happy with some of the casting and other choices that Sky have made for the films so far, but on the whole they have been very enjoyable and Sir Pterry has been rather involved himself in the films so far (to the point of doing cameos in both Hogfather and The Colour of Magic), which kind of endorses them for me. And the new film is looking good. I like Richard Coyle and I think he'll do a great Moist von Lipwig. And even though Charles Dance is blond he might be allowed to do a more convincing Vetinari than Jeremy Irons.
(And wasn't it fitting that the mood theme picture for "excited" actually has the other Moist in it? ^^ )
