My Own Biggest Fan

I never got around to reading these books when I was a kid, but about six months ago, I picked them up and was pleasantly surprised. I suppose I just didn’t believe the hype, and was sort of jaded because playing the text adventure game based on the book, I could never get past the bulldozer at the very beginning.

Disney began production of a new movie version last year and to my surprise it looks really cool. The director is untried and the cast is mostly unfamiliar to me, but it does have John Malcovich in it. I find it funny that I have only read the book recently, but I am almost as protective of it as some long-time fans. I guess it is their quality that makes them so easy to love.

The teaser gets me a little excited to.
