Of American Gods and Hobbits

Apr 14, 2011 21:57

American Gods may be a mini series on HBO. HBO + Neil Gaiman (with possible Tom Hanks) = FUCKING AWESOME! A co-worker and I both love Neil Gaimen and we had discussed that one movie wouldn't do justice to the book but a mini series would be best. When I first read AG it quickly became one of my all time faves.

And, uh, this also happened today:

FEEEEEELINGS. ALL THE FUCKING FEEEEEELINGS.

No, seriously...watching PJ go through the hobbit hole and seeing Richard Taylor, and Bag End, and ANDY SERKIS...this is all happening and I am so happy I could pee.

And I'm so happy it turned out PJ is the director. Even the universe said 'No, it shall be Peter Jackson and no one else, bitches.'

Clearly the universe wanted this to happen. I mean, it would have been a good movie with Guillermo...but it wouldn't have been our movie. And by 'our' I mean 'the entire LOTR fandom that fell in love with the story because of how PJ, Fran, Phillippa, and WETA dreamed it.' <3

OMG American Gods!!!! Sucks that I don't have HBO, but that's what torrents are for. Ever since I read it I thought it would make an excellent movie/series. The same with Good Omens.

Amen to that.

I'm currently reading Good Omens right now. :D
