Those Calvins are nice. Sorry couldn't get past that....
ReplyDeletethat is why I didn't write his name over the photo... didn't want to obstruct the view :)
DeleteGood Tuesday to you, Dez. I've heard lots of good things about Eat, Pray, Love. The Signature sounds interesting as well.
ReplyDeleteThe cover is certainly stunning and inviting!
DeleteI tried to make it through the book Eat, Pray, Love. I loved the beginning, but once they got to the "pray" part, it screeched to a halt. I just couldn't get through that section.
ReplyDeletehe he he it would be the same with me... can't stand anything about religion .... A few years ago I translated WHAT COLOUR IS YOUR PARACHUTE, world's most popular guide for the unemployed, and the last section is HOW CAN GOD HELP YOU TO FIND A JOB.... I was just left speechless... what the what?
DeleteI was waiting to see if they were going to continue on with The Mortal Instruments as movies or tv series. I liked the books, so I am glad to hear they will at least be moving forward in television.
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful trailer for The Little Prince!
and at least the lead man will be better than that godawful Jamie Bowers Campbell.... such a talentless man he is
DeleteI have the movie on my dvr, but haven't gotten around to watching it, so I have no idea who Jamie Bowers Campbell is. Did he play Jace in the movie? I saw the movie posters, and didn't think the blonde was very sexy. Now, this Dominic Sherwood does fit the bill!
Deleteyep, and he also ruined that CAMELOT epic show a few years ago with his horrid wimpy acting ... he and Max Irons are the worst in their generation
DeleteI'd love to see The Little Prince. What a sweet story.
ReplyDeleteit does look lovely, and plus it's French :)
DeleteThe Little Prince looks great. I am so excited to take my God son. :)
ReplyDeleteAutumn, here we come!
DeleteOh man, I loved the original Little Prince book. I thought it was so magical as a kid.
ReplyDeleteI always get a little worried when Hollywood tries to recreate an experience I read as a book. The movies can never make it as amazing as it was in my imagination.
but this is the good side of it - it's not from Hollywood but from France :)
DeleteLittle Prince looks like a magical story.
ReplyDeleteLittle Prince looks like a magical story.
ReplyDeleteglad you think so!
DeleteThey'd better not butcher that beautiful story!
ReplyDeleteThe French don't butcher... the Americans do
DeleteHmmmm.... :p
DeleteThe French gave us fries and toast..... and kiss too..
DeleteBut they copied the Eiffel Tower and made it big.... :p
