I was taken by surprise to see a trailer for Tale of Despereaux on television! I didn't even know they were making a movie from this book! When I saw a trailer of this cute little mouse with oversized ears I grinned from ear to ear... take a look, maybe you will too!
The trailer is cute, and I hope the movie is good! I can't imagine it living up to the book, but hey, that's almost always the case :P
ReplyDeleteit's hard to compare a "cartoon" to a book.. but I'm glad they did this one and hope it's good!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see this. Not sure when it's coming to the UK but I'm thinking my grandaughter would *love* it. (And me too...) Thanks for posting this great trailer, sis! :-D
ReplyDeleteCath: who needs the grandkids? I just watched Wall-E last night! heh..
ReplyDeletethe book is on my coffee table and I keep thinking I'm going to read it to my grandkids....
ReplyDeleteWhen i read this book when it first came out i read it straight through. never putting it down. I'm disappointed to see that they made it into a movie. When the main character is a mouse it makes the whole thing animation and that ruins a movie in my mind. I also had this picture of Despereaux in my head and the completely destroyed it. i think movies like this and Eragon and Inkheart shouldn't be created because you can't really capture the main ideas of a book if it's fictional.
