1. i guess these days hardly anybody can help thinking, "boy, that's
a good novel, might be turned into a bad movie..."
2. i have always been strictly against making a movie out of CR
3. then again, since JDS was even asked about it, it is certainly an
interesting topic
4. on my website (url see below) i have this opinion poll about
whether CR should be turned into a movie. 434 people have voted so
far - of these 61 % are against it (the figure is always close to two
thirds). Also, there are lots of poll user comments, some of which
are worth reading...
5. since my English is almost as limited as "Jive Monkey"'s German:
what is a GRINCH, for Chrissake?!
Bernie
PS for those who are interested, the poll is in #5 of the EXTERNAL
ASPECTS. url:
