    This is the most recent news I found on this from the following site:

    http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20161804_3,00.html

    but I didn't look real hard and was blocked from a few sites.

    I sure as hell hope that it goes through. :xyxthumbs:

    Wow I seriously had no idea!!

    Flipfone I'm a lot like you. I really like to play out the characters in my imagination. One of my favorite books is A million little pieces by James Frey. I'm really waiting for someone to turn it into a movie. Running with Scissors was another good one that they did that I really liked. Any of the old classics are good too: Scarlet Letter, Little Women, Jane Eyre, etc. I'm in the middle of reading The Memory Keepers Daughter right now, and I can really see that making a good movie.

    I read Million Little Pieces. What a douchenozzle Frey is. PRETENDING it was a memoir when it was a pure work of fiction. NO WAY IN HELL this becomes a movie after he admitted it was all BS.

    I read A Million Little Pieces before Oprah got her filthy hands all over it, and I loved it. I'm going to leave it at that.

    I read the memory keepers daughter as well and I dont know if I'm going to chance watching it on Lifetime this Saturday night at 9pm. I really liked the book and I'm sooo afraid they are going to complete hack it up.

    I saw this over the weekend and even though I didn't get to read the book I wasn't sure how I felt about it. Anyone else who read the book..what did you guys think about it?

    I book was good, and I really like that. It was sooo full of stuff that I thought the movie could've been longer to fit it all in. But the movie, stand alone was really wonderful. The story itself is so inspirational and it really got that message across.
