Meg sent me this link over the weekend. Apparently, Warner Bros. has bought the movie rights to Jeff Smith's Bone. See, a Bone movie would only work for me if they got the people who make Wallace and Gromit to put it together. I can't think of anyone who could handle the series' unique mix of goofiness and dignity better. Unfortunately, this film is going to be produced by Dan Lin. You know what his credits include? Scooby-Doo 2, the new 10,000 BC movie, and the recent (and no doubt immortal) film version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
So... yeah, my hopes aren't high.
P.S. I finally read the first issue of Smith's Rasl. Totally different from Bone, but a very intriguing start.

I hear Smith pulled the plug on an earlier version of the movie because the filmakers wanted to change too much of the story, so maybe this won't be as bad as you think...?

Actually, that sounds like a really encouraging sign!
