Discworld (Movie)

[Hack McSlash]

So, I'm sure some of you have read parts of Discworld. I myself love it, and am avidly addicted. Apparently, there is a movie based on the Hogfather. Never heard of it, can't find it anywhere but this site. So, I thought I'd share.

Yup, one Discworld addict reporting for duty, sir! I happen to have a copy of the screenplay in book-form, though I haven't taken a look at it yet. Who would buy that is beyond me. * I mean, it's Hogfather, dammit! Whoever's even slightly interested in DW already has that, why publish the same thing again?

* If you're wondering: I didn't, especially not for the £20 it says on the cover it costs. I'm supposed to translate it. Lucky me, huh?

Yeah, Hogfather was great. Wasn't really a movie though - Sky made it as a two part TV thing for Christmas.

There's also Soul Music and Wyrd Sisters in animated form (both of which are suprisingly good).

I have never heard of Discworld, but after seeing that movie I must get the books, one of the best I've seen in a long time.

Thanks for link, Hogfather was indeed rather cool.

Thank you so much!

I've been wanting to see that for ages!

Still, nobby was rather human looking, I wanted a spider monkey with a bit less hair 

I'm now in a dilemma, watch all of it and stay up, well, all night or finish at episode 4 (it's already 2am....  Guess I'll stay up, its worth it)

 

[Hack McSlash]

Heh...I did the "stay up all night" thing with it. Missing my classes (exhaustion) was probably not the best thing to do...considering I could have watched it during free time.

I loved it, death was a bit of a disappointment though, his jaw didn't even move, his skull looked gay and his scythe was like some fantasy piece of crap.

 

[Rabid Potatoe]

I agree, the scythe really did suck. I didn't mind the jaw as much, that was just a bit of a niggle.

Hehehe. It's funny cuz there's a computer store down the street from me called Discworld.

Spraypaint some graffiti on the front..."Mr Shine, Him Diamond" or something.

I have to say I prefered the voice of Death in the animated films, Christopher Lee will be the only Death for me.

Watched this last night, it was funny

I have readed perhaps 1 or 2 books before, haven't got this far in story earlier. I remember mort and that city watch guy from books, susan as death granddaughter was new acquaintance.
