Hmm, what can I say other than that I didn't like the book particularly, and not the movie either... I know I'm a minority.
ReplyDeleteTo each their own! :D I love the movie so SO much that I'm almost afraid to read the book.
DeleteI'm glad we share that secret! I don't think I've read the book either...
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I'm not the only one ;)
DeleteBest movie ever. I've lost count of how many times I've watched it. "Mawage is what bwings us togever today." I die with laughter every time. So many great scenes.
ReplyDeleteI had to read the book in 8th grade, but I don't remember much about it. I just bought it recently hoping for a re-read. We'll see if it stands up to the amazing movie.
Ha Ha. I love the movie but, like you, haven't read the book. I have it sitting on my shelf though, so that counts for something, right? That said, I know several people who have read the book and they say the movie is much better.
ReplyDeleteI love the movie. I started the book. Don't know why I didn't finish it, but there it sits, waiting for me to read it when I'd much rather watch the movie again.
ReplyDeleteHow's this - I didn't even know there was a book! And I"m a huge fan of the movie. My kids even quote it how... "Stop now, I mean it!" "Anybody want a peanut?" I wonder if the book is as satirical as the movie- I'm with you, I wouldn't want to read it now.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, your new design looks great! Sorry I haven't been back sooner!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen the movie or read the book!
ReplyDeleteBut I have to say that Matilda by Roald Dahl was an outstanding book and they did a really great job with that movie as well!
This is one of my favorite movies ever!! I love it so much. Lol. My brother and I can quote the whole darn thing, to the annoyance of my husband.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a good one! I haven't ever gotten tired of the movie!
ReplyDeleteOHHH yes, I absolutely agree!!
ReplyDeleteI love the film since I was little, but this summer I read the book, ¡¡and it was wonderful!! What a delight!!
My favourite book and film ever!! :)
I've heard of the movie, though I didn't realise it was so old. I think I ought to get to it sooner than planned.
ReplyDeleteIve seen this movie - but have not read the book :)
ReplyDeleteI'm really amused by this movie, but I haven't ever read the book either. I probably should eventually!
ReplyDeleteI love the movie, have seen it so many times, but the book is even better, it's so wonderful. Really. Please please please read it!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE LOVE LOVE this movie! And you know, the book isn't bad either. READ IT! :)
ReplyDeleteI solemnly swear that I *will* get to the book sooner rather than later :) I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who hasn't read it! Now I'm curious how long the book was out before the movie was released. It seems a lot of us haven't read the book/didn't know there WAS a book. That's kinda crazy.
