To all Neil Gaiman fans ("Stardust").
 

"Stardust" is not Gaimans best novel, in my honest opinion, and the BBC production of my favorite "Neverwhere" was a HUUUUUGE disappointment to me. But it seems that hollywood has finally got their eyes up for his work and unique mind.

I mean..... LOOK AT THE CAST, FOR CHRIST SAKE!!!!

i liked Neverwhere ...



and i'm reading stardust right now...

Are you saying that you actually LIKED the BBC production??

Or are you talking about the book?

I haven't seen Neverwhere, but I dug the shit out of MirrorMask.

i liked the BBC production.

i'm a longtime fan of BBC productions .. i like the feel of them.

I find it rather insulting.

Well..... Except for "Dr. Who" that is.

I don´t know why, but for some reason the low budget production fitted Dr. Who perfectly.:)

Oh, and i LOVED "Red Dwarf" as well.


I think i tollerated the shitty budget of both "Who" and "Red Dwarf" because they were meant to be B-sci-fi and weren´t to be taken seriously in any way.

i find that bbc productions (the one's i've seen) rely on entheusiastic performances rather than slick production values.
i like the inventivness of the effects and set design.

when i was a kid i didnt like them much either but i since adjusted my expectations accordingly.

another good BBC production was the CS Lewis Narnia series.

I really liked the novel.(Stardust)
True,was not one of Neil's best books but pretty damn good.

Maybe this BBC production isn't up to par because Jane Goldman did the screenplay? It's a thought.

No, the huge problem with the BBC production was the insultingly low budget they spend on the scenery and makeup.

"Neverwhere" deserved more. MUCH more.:mad:

Well, we can always hope for an American remake:rolleyes:
