I'm under the assumption that Foul very well had some form of remote communication with his generals via the Illearth stone - but I doubt they "radioed" in every tactical manoeuvre (such as pursuing the Warward into Garrotting Deep). Maybe on a more strategic level, e.g. "Revelwood de...

OK, a week off TOPS then I want to hear the gentle pitter patter of busy fingers on a keyboard.

I guess I'm spoilt as he'd pretty much finished the 2nd Chrons before I started LFB. And I started the Gap series after it was completed. I don't like this waiting three years for a book malarkey!

I didn't know Hugh Laurie had already played a part with an American accent - I'm used to his slightly plummy British public-school accent!

I bow to your greater knowledge... ;)

I agree he's got the look, but...

Too comedic. And wrong accent.

And I'd be thinking of Blackadder III too much... :)

How about the Far Cry engine? Excellent at large draw-distances (farplane?) Super visuals (water, trees, grass etc)

Let me know when the games done, I'd pay good money for it!!! :letsparty:

Thanks for the replies. Just to clarify, I think we ALL agree that the rape is a fundamental part of the books that couldn't be missed out or glossed over. It'll be interesting to see exactly how it's handled... Re opening scene - I must admit I do like the idea of a sweeping panormaic view from the...

Time for a quick reality check folks. Let's make the BIG assumption that the movie(s) eventually gets made in a few years time... There is no way that they will be made as a scene-for-scene, wholly accurate conversion of the books. It just doesn't happen, for a whole host of reasons. Films and books...
