Are there any films you really fancy seeing at the moment? I want to see "Into The Wild", which is about a graduate who turns his back on society, and randomly takes off to Alaska to live in the wilderness. I believe it's directed by Sean Penn.

Stardust. It's been a while since I saw a film trailer that made me go "ooh, I want to see that", but I really want to see Stardust. I will probably wait for the DVD though, going to the pictures is such a faff.

It's billed as "The fairytale that won't behave". I'm not really sure what it's about, but it looks beautiful.

I can tell you it is the best film I've seen this year and me and my gf are considering seeing it at the cinema again. Never done that with any film before this one.

Stardust is lovely, a bit twee at times but I really enjoyed it. Takes some right old liberties with the book though, the ending is totally different.

There's a book? It's an adaptation? Tell me of this book, I may know someone who could get me a copy!

Why would I have known it was a book? And on discovering this fact, why would I then go to a third party for further information rather than respond to the person who furnished me with the original fact?

OR

I'm lazy.

'Tis by Neil Gaiman and, unsurprisingly, it's called Stardust. Available in all good book stores.

Yes Yuds was this aimed at me? You don't want to read it, trust me! Good story but rubbish writing in my opinion.

I reached that conclusion when someone posted the words "Neil Gaiman".
