@DJDarren@mendeddrum.org yes me too! I'm pretty adamant that the books shouldn't be filmed, but that would have been perfect casting

@mothninja@beige.party @DJDarren@mendeddrum.org I don’t have a problem with the idea that any of the Discworld books get turned into proper films. I do however find that the Sky funded animations that I’ve watched (Wyrd Sisters and Hogfather) seem to lose a lot of the humour in the translation and are strangely bland in character as a result. I’ve never re-watched the two that I did watch, and I’ve not bothered to seek out any more. Always wondered if this is “just me” or a more common opinion.

@mothninja@beige.party @DJDarren@mendeddrum.org (Had to look up his name.) No idea why, I've always had Pete Postlethwaite in mind but in a shorter version.
