I don't know about you, but while reading the book I imagined it as a movie by Tim Burton or Henry Selick. I can't think of any other director for it.
This is the best book in the whole world !!!!!!!!! :) It's a great story and I want to buy the book because whenever I go to the library it's checked out
I love this book, but I am so confused in terms of the movie. In January of this year, Gaiman said that the movie had been canceled, but I found articles from May of this year saying that the movie is in pre-production and that Gaiman is writing the screenplay. SO IS IT GOING TO BE MADE OR NOT?! O_o
@DanieBritsRainCloud (no offense) but i dont really think jhonny depp would be a very good role for any of the characters in The Graveyard Book, I read it, and i dont think Jhonny Depp would be good for it (of coarse no offence ment) cos Jhonny Depp is really good at funny and crazy roles, ont he other hand the graveyard book is more of a serious one. i hope they do make a film of it
To DannyGrowth. I DID! I cried at the end of the book. It was so touching. We, the readers, had to 'let go' just like Bod and move on. I recommend this book on my MySpace profile.
Buying the full version of The Graveyard adds only one feature, the possibility of death. The full version of the game is exactly the same as the trial, except, every time you play she may die.
BUT I really wanted Bod to hug Silas in the end of the book S: And what about the day where the living and the dead danced? That remained a mystery. And the lady in grey never did let Bod ride her horse, her character also remained a mystery.
Lady on the Grey never let Bod ride her horse because you only ride it when you die, thats what she met by saying everybody does, hes yet to die and then he will. and i wanted Bod to hug Silas too =( hhehe, p.s. this is about the graveyard book
i can't wait for the film. A friend and I think it's either going to be like the Nightmare Before Christmas with playdough or like Coraline which looks like they made everything out of wood. I don't know. It could be quite cool if they did live action though!
My teacher read it to our class when I was in 6th grade (i'm a 7th grader now) it was sooooo good we only had 3 weeks to read it cause school was almost done we didnt have the time to finish it all and my teacher said she was going to tell us the end but she forgot:()
I can't wait for this film. I finished the book today and its an amazing read. I suggest people get ahead of the curve before everyone starts reading it.
i absolutely LOVED the book and it would be so cool to see a movie, but the only thing is i just can't picture anybody playing Bod's character in a movie! nobody (lol) can capture Bod's exquisit characteristics like Gaiman can :)
Oooh, weird, but sounds good. Raised by the dead! I bet he's got some stories to tell. You wouldn't get this kind of stuff at the local cinema would you? I might just take a look. Great trailer by the way.
yeah, i knew that... it said in the book that there was this flying bat-like thing when b0d was in the p0lice car.... d0esn't matter though, i l0ve him!!!!!!!
its really hard to read!!!! im stuck at the part where he's kidnapped by the gouls and i just CANT seem to finish that section!!! i have to read every sentence like 17 times before it makes sense!!!
I wonder if Henry Selick will be doing the film adaptation? I just finished the book, Neil really deserved the Newbury award for this great little book.
My mom stood in line for hours to get this book signed for me as a surprise for my birthday...and of course Gaiman stayed way past his scheduled signing time to autograph for everybody in the line. I am so glad I've gotten to reading this book--not done yet, but I love it already!
The Graveyard book is so good, really pleasant to read, and so cute in a very dark way. I have waited very long for new Gaiman's story and I'm NOT disappointed
The Tim Burton idea to me might seem strange because i would like to see how this book can be portrayed in a real way that doesn't look fake

this movie should be a work from Tim Burton. I think that this book has the essence that Burton has in his films

But a truce to this strain; for my soul it is sad,
To think that a heart in humanity clad
Should make, like the brute, such a desolate end,
And depart from the light without leaving a friend.
Rattle his bones over the stones! He's only a pauper, whom nobody owns!

NinjaFishTV1 2 months ago
You bumpkins! who stare at your brother conveyed--
Behold what respect to a cloddy is paid!
And be grateful to think, when by death you're laid low,
You've a chance to the grave like a genman to go!
Rattle his bones over the stones! He's only a pauper, whom nobody owns!
Badgaldinger 3 months ago
Poor pauper defunct! he has made some approach
To gentility, now that he's stretched in a coach!
He is taking a drive in his carriage at last!
But it will not be long, if he goes on so fast:
Rattle his bones over the stones! He's only a pauper, whom nobody owns!
Badgaldinger 3 months ago
What a jolting, and creaking, and splashing, and din!
The whip, how it cracks! and the wheels, how they spin!
How the dirt, right and left, o'er the hedges it hurls,
The pauper at length, makes a noise in the world.
Rattle his bones over the stones! He's only a pauper, whom nobody owns!
Badgaldinger 3 months ago
Oh where are the mourners? Alas! There are none,
He has left not a gap in the world, now he's gone,--
Not a tear in the eye of child, woman, or man;
To the grave with his carcass as fast as you can:
Rattle his bones over the stones! He's only a pauper, whom nobody owns!
Badgaldinger 3 months ago
There's a grim one-horse hearse in a jolly round trot--
To the churchyard a pauper is going, I wot;
The road it is rough, and the hearse has no springs,
And hark to the dirge which the mad driver sings:
Rattle his bones over the stones! He's only a pauper, whom nobody owns!
