Dear reader, if you are still the least bit interested in anything I have to say, then you are damned lucky I'm still writing. I come to you with the amazingness of movies based on books. Let's begin with the two coming out this week: Twilight and Quantum of Solace.
Now, mind you, Quantum of Solace is not a book, but the character of Bond was created in novels by Sir Ian Flemming. I don't know if there was anything remotely similar about the Bond from the books and the Bond from the movies, but I certainly do love what they've done with him since Casino Royale. This latest installment really knocks my socks off. Fan-fucking-tastic.
Now Twilight, on the other hand, is.....uh.....how do I put it nicely? I didn't read the books. I think i refuse to read them on the account that they are so popular with the kids these days. Now I think that as a librarian I should have an open mind about books and things, but what can i say? I'm a bad person. Don't waste your time on Twilight. It's too brooding and dark. Lots of sadness and pain. And a Shit Ending.
