In Prince Caspian by C.

Any views on Twilight! Think it will do justice to the book.
Twilight the movie seems good but it could still suck.usually the books are better than the movies,except for narnia and blood&chocolate,those movies were AWESOME.with eragon i saw the movie than read the book,the book was better.

yeah, i hope they get good actors cause it'll totally spoil it if they don't look like them, like Crepsley, I mean he's supposed to have just a tiny bit of orange hair at the top....but i imagine him with a head full of hair.... *sigh*
and Yes, Very big Darren Shan Fan ^^

omgoodness!
Twilight, I don't think it will do justice ><;; or I mean, the book will probably be better..
And the person who is playing edward T_T

I've never actually read the lord of the rings books, I tried for the first book but I couldn't get through the first part.. so many explanations.. ><;; but the movie(s) were really good xD Especially the third movie. And I didn't even try watching Eragon the movie because so many people said it was bad...

As for harry potter... I liked (in the movie) the characters when they were younger.. they were so much cuter x))

although you probably know by now....but yea both were made into movies
i personally think the Twilight movie isn't going to be good at all. it's a great book(s) but i think the movie will ruin it
