I thought it was a great book, it's one of my favourites. I especially liked the ending.

Definitely one of my favs. I'd like to see someone attempt a movie, but don't think it'd ever be perfect.

holy shit, i know!
i was thinking the exact same thing...
i think, if done correctly, it would be an amazing movie.
it would more than likely win at least one award.
i would rather have them not do it than make a terrible movie though...
if they could get actually good and talented actors/actresses and a good director, then they should definitely do it.
i'm trying to think of some actors that would make the movie awesome...
i'll post back later if i think of someone.

Eh I don't really see it being a good movie... it would have to be black and white for one, and most people wouldn't understand what the fuck was going on...

I'm pretty sure if it was made into a movie there would be a lot of negative reviews.

oh ya, that's a good point...
it'd be a 1 in 10000000000000000000000 chance that the movie would turn out good haha.
plus, i'm sure most people would hate it anyway.
many people today are close minded and half retarded.
they just wanna see stuff go BOOM!

I had to read this in school, i thought it was decent... a bit over hyped though. Also not one of my favorite authors.

Glad you've made an educated deduction about it...
