The 2013 Trivial, Boring Drivel Thread....

[HairOfTheDog]

John Lithgow is great, always loved him, plays a fine villain.

If you had read the books first I'm sure you would have never liked the show, shows never seem capable of doing the literature justice.

Lithgow is always really good.

Normally, seeing shows after reading a great book that they're based upon is disappointing. But, a few of my favorite movies are based on great books:

To Kill A Mockingbird
Shawshank Redemption
The Exorcist
Drugstore Cowboy

Those movies were really loyal to the feel of the books.

(Thought about making a list of all of the shit movies based on great books and then wondered "why?"; a little on the buzzed side here.)
