Hollywood has a great ability to botch remakes. I'll be ordering your PURPLE WARS book this week. Now if someone could just reissue the entire series....

It is probably my all time favorite movie. The story was very good, the effects were well done for the time period it was filmed and Michale Rennie turned in a top notch performance, IMO. I personally doubt the remake will match the original, but I do intend to see it on the big screen (a rarity for me with the price of movies these days) and I hope I'll be surprised. As for The Shadow movie, you know me - I've got my fingers crossed that this one will happen. I loved the Alec Baldwin version (bad as it might have been) but I'd really love to see them do the character justice this time. The Shadow was as much about the organization working for him as the Shadow himself. Here's hoping that Raimi can make this one work - I really enjoyed his Darkman series and have all of them on DVD. And best of luck with your books in 2009, Tom. I can't guarantee I'll buy everything you put out, but there's a number of your books that I won't let myself miss out on!
