Everybody’s Talkin’ 10 – 16 (Chatter From Fellow Bloggers)

Things will be a bit quieter around here over the next week or so. I do have some bloggy goodness scheduled to post, but by and large I won’t be near a PC very much until closer to the end of the month. Please do continue to stop in, and leave comments on what I do post…just keep in mind that the whole caper is more or less on auto-pilot.

One reason to keep stopping by, is to click on my blogroll and see what my fellow geeks are up to. Speaking of whom, it was actually kinda tough compiling this week’s version of E-T. I’m not sure if they’re all just writing that much more, or if I happen to be following that many more of them…but I only had to go back about two days to land myself an entire post’s worth of linky goodness.

So, for your reading fulfillment I give you…

In honour of this week’s release of WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE, Miss Rae Kasey at Nitflicky has compiled her list of the top ten children’s lit adaptations.

Tony at Cinema Viewfinder has me jealous with the fact that he’s already seen A SERIOUS MAN. Give his review a look.

Joel and his Magical Ticket Stub have been taking in the Ottawa International Animation Festival. His early thoughts can be found here.

M.Carter took a look back at one of my all time favorites this week. Here’s her thoughts on the classic, TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD.

Daniel at Getafilm amused me this week by pointing out that only in the movies can you go to a club with pounding music and have a conversation without needing to yell.

And finally, Norma Desmond at The Flick Chick has put up an interesting piece on what she considers a great final scene. The movie is one of my all time top five, so you won’t hear any argument from me!

Enjoy!

  1. It seemed to me this week was flooded with lots of new posts. I'd go to class, come back about 2-3 hours later and would have about 20-30 posts… which explains why my commenting was so limited. Even my Monday Corner got lost in the mix *tear*. Of course this past week I had to take so much heat via Twitter, Facebook, etc. for that Twilight post, it was worth it :D.

    Nitflicky's list is pretty great. I tried to compile a counter-list but I couldn't come up with much of anything… I felt so ashamed.

    Comment Score:
    – Self Promotion: Check
    – Agreement with author: Check
    – Kind remark about author: DAMN!

    Well, 2/3 ain't bad… 😛

  2. Thanks for the nod – I wasn't sure if people would come out with a lot of counter examples against my theory.

    And congrats on the pending nuptials!

  3. Thanks for the plug, Hatter. Bit of a crazy weekend with the animation festival going on, plus the openings of Where the Wild Things Are and Paranormal Activity. Thankfully, I have a bunch of stuff stocked up for the next couple of weeks.

  4. @ Univarn… I try to spread the love around from week to week. I'll be sure to get you on the next one. You actually have a shout out scheduled for next week, so be on the lookout for it!

    @ Daniel… Thanks for the love, I almost can't believe that the big day is finally here! I quite like your theories, and unlike your vinyl question from a month or so ago, I can't even argue with you on this one! Well done!!

    @ Joel… I didn't even know about the OAFF, so it's cool to read about – keep the good stuff coming. Perhaps next year I'll even take a VIA Train up and check it out for a day or two.
