The book was good,  good enough for me to complete it in 4 days,  so I\'ll check out the movie.  Here is the trailer

I read the book and I have a strong urge to not see it.  I can\'t see it translating well on screen at all.  Especially after seeing the trailer on TV.  "No weapons, no cell phone, no 9-1-1."  It has trash written all over it.

I see where you are coming from.  After reading the book I heard they were making a movie and I was like this wouldnt make a very good movie,  but I\'ll go see it just to watch how they create 1350,  if Chrichton has anything to do with the movie he will make sure it is replicated as close as possible,  his past work in Great train robbery and possible 13th warrior,  )dont know if he had anything to with 13th Warrior) show that he is very detailed in recreating  a time period.  

But yes I can tell from that simple trailer that dialogue is much less serious then the book was and this movie doesnt look like it will get more then *** stars from me but I will still watch it...

I thought I was going to go blind from watching the tiny thing from the first post!  hehehe  I can\'t wait to see the movie!  Read the book and totally loved it.  I thought it was movie material.  (Gonna have to reread the book before I see the movie. :p)
