The two movies you mentioned had quite large casts -- the filming could easily be divided to make sure that no one child would be working too many hours. Take Harry Potter, for example. One group of kids did school work in the mornings while another was filming, and vice versa. The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon centers on one child. IMO, in order to make the film, too much of it would have to focus on the family and the search to keep the lead actress' time down. I fear that by doing so, the impact of the book would be greatly minimized. Not saying it's impossible, but I understand why no studio has made it yet.

I'm not 100% on this, but I'll give it a try. Dean: What, are you stoned? Castiel: Uh, generally, yeah.

R?

I don't think that The Girl who Loved Tom Gordon will ever be made, even though it's probably the book most people would like to see adapted. I wonder how badly child labor laws would prolong the filming -- and if it would be cost-effective.

Wow. Busy Friday for everyone? Um... O? (Seems like the vowels don't get enough love around here.)

That blew my mind, but it kind of explains a whole lot, too. Okay, with that out of my system, I am looking forward to, yet dreading, Blood of Olympus. Loving the PJ/KC crossover short stories. With Staff of Serapis, it really sounds like he has a full story in mind at some point.... Also looking forward to his upcoming Norse mythology series. (That guy up in the corner is my dog Loki -- named after the Norse god, not the Marvel or Supernatural character.) Thoughts? Speculation on the deaths in Blood of Olympus (because you know he's gonna kill off at least a couple of characters)? Favorite/least favorite characters?

Huge list of current SK adaptations in the works, including some surprises!

Huge list of Stephen King adaptations in the works, but here's the relevant SPN bit:

To quote Dean Winchester, "Son of a bitch!" I don't know how many times I checked that thing to make sure I got everything. Ugh. But you got it! Your turn!

Any nu-metal song where the lead singer screams on and on about how much he hates his father. ;-) Honestly, though, I'll have to get back to you on that one.

Man, if I hadn't spent the day cleaning, I could have blown your minds yesterday. I knew what it was before a single letter was picked. (My daughter has it on a pin on her bag. And we might use it to get each other's attention, from time to time.) Oh, right, today's puzzle. Tori Spelling. I'm a huge fan. Girl's a real talent.

Well done! Have at!
