    Was a great book, I look forward to seeing how it translates to the big screen. It has a great cast.

    Did you by chance read the book?

    Did you see the Movie Gettyberg? It was a good film adaptation of the Book, The Killer Angels. This is the prequel to it. I hope they also do The Last Full Measure. Another great book.

    Michael Shaara wrote "The Killer Angels" and his son Jeff has written the other 2. I couldn't sit through all of Gettysburg, but maybe I should try again. The book is fantastic. I haven't read the son's books.

    Jeff Shaara's books are good too, very similar style in writing. The movie Gettysburg was tough to sit through but very well done.

    Anyone seen it? I know it's like 4 hrs. long and Eggbert and Ropehead or whichever one that isn't dead~ both gave it thumbsdown. It looked to me like it would be good, but phew 4hrs is a long time! btw- i don't really trust movie critics.

    it will be long and drawn out but it is an epic about stonewall jackson and the early part of the civil war. i'm going to see it this week.
