Some think so. There are some books that just can't be made into films. This may be one of them. Sure they can try, but I can bet that few people will enjoy the result.

When I set out from the boy's attic window, my head was so full of competing plans and complex strategems that I didn't look where I was going and flew straight into a chimney.

Something symbolic in that. It's what fake freedom does for you.

Yes, I am. Why do you find it hard to believe?

Why did you assume I was from South America, Apollo? Something to do with seasons?

I don't find it hard to believe, I was just wondering if you were being sarcastic. Tends to happen alot around here; unless it's blatantly obvious, sarcasm on forums causes to many misinterpretations.

Idiot, N&B was posting a lot in the Terrorism article around the Mumbai attacks for a reason.
Clearly you missed those posts.
I'm surprised, they were long and good.

Yes, better 2011 then never, but I do think these are books that can be made into good movies.
And yeah, maybe the smaller fanbase explains the lack of hurry.

If you were refering to me as "idiot", I inform you that I have better things to do than go on a forum dedicated to the Bartimaeus trilogy and discuss politics / current affairs, whatever you want to call it.

I was talking to Apollo.
Of course we have better things to do, and we do them.
We go here to waste time.

Yes, but we (or I, for one) don't come here to discuss terrorism.

I started the topic because there wasn't one.
I'm sure N&B didn't log in that first day the topic existed, planning on it, but it happened anyways.

I clicked the links instead. If you haven't noticed, I'm not widely active in the Terrosim topic. Why, then, would I take the time to read the posts that take a good half of the page?

It was quite funny actually. I reactivated my profile to divert my mind elsewhere(away from the issue of terrorism), but that topic was the first thing I got entangled into. I was going through all the topics & I saw the one Datsyuk made & curiosity got the better of me. I, like a fool, posted on it & was forced by Sent to prove every sentence word I typed.

I know :D .
In the end, I sort of started to enjoy typing out huge explanations for everything. It made me view things clearer, if you get my meaning. I never had to explain all these stuffs before & when you & Sent kept asking me for proof, I was in a dilemma. Coz the things I was talking about was things which I had gathered throughout my life & I couldn't pinpoint to a particular source of information.

I'm going to be very annoying for you all...
Is there really a film coming out?

Go bluer now, a royal hue, and look for information.
