Mini-Challenge:
Think of your favorite book - has it been made into a movie? If not (and maybe you’ll need to go to your 2nd favorite book and so on), tell me if you’d like to see it made into a movie and pick one character from the book and give me information on which actor you’d love to see cast in the part.  Make your post as fun as possible, tell me why you think the movie would be amazing and why the actor/actress you chose would be perfect in the part!

I would cast Graveyward Book.

I want David Bowie as Silas
"Silas: Bod's guardian until the boy reaches maturity. Teacher, counselor, and vigilant champion, Silas is not alive, but he is not dead. Unlike the ghosts, he may move among the living in order to acquire food, medicine, and other necessities for the boy. Silas is a member of the Honour Guard and it is hinted at that he is a vampire, but never out-right stated in the book. Gaiman has confirmed Silas as a vampire in interviews."

I think David Bowie would be perfect as a teacher/protector who is also a vampire.

And David Tennant as Jack
"The Man Jack: the killer who murdered Bod's parents. A mysterious figure throughout most of the text, he murdered Bod's family and seeks to kill the boy because of a self-fulfilling prophecy. He poses as a mild-mannered and gentle man.

David Tennant. Evil. 'nough said

books, readathon
