I just thought I would let you know that Sullivan Entertainment is casting a new Anne of Green Gables for the prequel to the original Emmy Award Winning Series. We are looking for young actresses between the ages of 10-12 years old.<BR/><BR/>If you are interested in finding out more information, please visit www.sullivanmovies.com - click on press release to find out more.<BR/><BR/>Thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10890387.post-71642652584253080842007-07-08T14:58:00.000-07:002007-07-08T14:58:00.000-07:00Ooh, ORIGINAL NANCY DREW MOVIES!?For some reason, ...Ooh, ORIGINAL NANCY DREW MOVIES!?<BR/>For some reason, mystery novels are easier for me to take cinema-tized, so I'd be interested in tracking those down - the new Drew movie seems... perky, but I'd like to see something older.<BR/><BR/>THANKS for the prologue!tanita✿davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01671822274852087499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10890387.post-37279863290249654462007-07-08T14:15:00.000-07:002007-07-08T14:15:00.000-07:00Oh, yes, indeed, there's a different between oi an...Oh, yes, indeed, there's a different between oi and oy - and my spell check has yet to recognize either.<BR/><BR/>I just attempted to find a clip of The Tenth Doctor saying, "Oi!" - using the keywords Doctor Who Oi on YouTube - and YouTube responded, "Do you mean Doctor Who Oil?"<BR/><BR/>You follow Justine Larbalestier's blog, right? "Magic! Magic! Magic! Oi! Oi! Oi!"<BR/><BR/>Yes, The Ferryman has a strong female protagonist. Her name is Janine. <A HREF="http://christophergolden.com/ferryman1.html" REL="nofollow">You may read the prologue online.</A><BR/><BR/>There's also a really cool female student who dazzles the class with her ONE LINE. YES.<BR/><BR/>I have an entire bookshelf for Golden books. Two big ol' shelves of loveliness.<BR/><BR/>Have you seen the original Nancy Drew movies? I saw them for the first time a few weeks ago, and Nancy was so spunky and unexpectedly delightful that I ended up writing a post all about Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys.<BR/><BR/>Anne Shirley rules.

It is a vast difference, apparently...<BR/><BR/>Does <I>The Ferryman</I> have a strong female protagonist?? I shall put it on my list. The Christopher Golden stack is getting a bit, erm, <I>weighty...</I><BR/><BR/>I, too, am an Anne aficionado all the way. Nancy... was too pretty, if that makes sense. I mean, all the books made the point of noting her clothes and on and on about her blondness. Anne Shirley knew very well she was plain... and decided to be amazing anyway.tanita✿davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01671822274852087499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10890387.post-56204805018867188092007-07-05T13:18:00.000-07:002007-07-05T13:18:00.000-07:00We had neighbors (or whoever) letting off firework...We had neighbors (or whoever) letting off fireworks at 2:30am Tuesday night.

I like Nancy well enough, but Anne is fantastic across the board. <BR/><BR/>Yay for protagonists who are feisty, determined, intelligent, and strong, no matter what their age, gender, or race.<BR/><BR/>Read The Ferryman by Christopher Golden, please. :)Little Willowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17058463472836988047noreply@blogger.com
