Subject: RE: BS: Terry Pratchett
Yep I have to say...movies are allright but nothing beats the book. That's why I was so glad I had read Lord of the Rings before seeing the movie...it was great finally seeing it on the big screen but they made me love and prefer the books even more because good as the movies were they just couldn't compare.

Being fond of old timey radio (Prarie Home Companion is a favorite when I can get it) I'd really enjoy hearing any of the Discworld series in a good radio play. As well as seeing it in the theater. *sigh* both seem to be underappreciated art forms in this day and age :( As for the radio plays it's really annoying...I can't seem to find radio play versions of any Discworld books on the internet anywhere. I checked the BBC radio link unfortunately I don't believe I have the plug-ins in order to listen to Guards! Guards!

grr...
