I was seeing more Christoper Lee or Vicent Price or the guy that previosly played Lord Vetinari in the Color of Magic as Lord Ventinari. Definetly a must see!
@zorrderschnitter94 YES! this is one of his best books! its my second favorite right under Thud! you should definitely read it. Moist Von Lipwig (main character of this book) is one of the best characters in Discworld. He might even be cooler than Commander Vimes.
I really, really, really like Going Postal -- the book. As such, I have my whole own thematic and vision of it all, but this adaptation looks very interesting as well, so I think I'll enjoy it in a different way...
Not to mention, the one playing Stanley hits all the right notes for me, never mind if you only saw him for a few quick flashes -- I knew it was him with those stamp sheets in hand, and I was always fond of him...
i´ve watched the first twenty minutes or so, and i liked it immensly so far! i´d even say it´s the best pterry adaptation so far. yes, vetinari is ginger (why?), but it doesn´t matter one bit... "quite." and for me, richard coyle (didn´t know the actor before, i´m not british) is perfect as moist. he fits the "handsome, but unremarkably so" description very well, and it is amazing how he changes, when he puts on a beard and another accent. can´t wait for the rest!
WTF??? They made Vetinari GINGER??? A GINGER VETINARI??? W....T....F???? It all looks so cheap and stupid... Moist is utterly miscast IMHO (my ideal Moist would be John Simm...).
I'm desperate to know when it's coming out in America. I'm a fan of Richard Coyle and an even bigger fan of Terry Pratchett. Going Postal and Making Money are two of my favorites. I also enjoyed Sky1's adaptations of The Hogfather and The Color of Magic. I can't wait to see this.
or later on it will end up on youtube, someone posted "the Color of Magic" on there before it came here to the US. I do hope ION channel picks up the series like they did for the other two.
First impressions from the trailer i feel they havn't caught moist in the right light. The book portrays him with so much charisma, which i didn't get any hint of here. Time shall tell!

Finally. A trailer. Sky had us wait quite a long time. I'm gonna have to read the book again before may! Look's as it's going to be quite cheesy and surreal- just the way it's supposed to be. Golem looks just, well, ridiculous, but Adora belle seems to be quite in character (:
Since this looks so goofy, I'm afraid that it'll be as bad as Color of Magic again. At least that film was based on a less than straightforward set of books.
@omg: don't be. You are not alone. I'm trying to wipe off that grin for hours now...won't budge. ;) I only hope this one's as good as the trailer promises though

I know me neither! Someone said after it airs in the UK it'll probably be found on the internet. Granted illegally more than likely....

Huh. None of the characters really look like I'd imagined them; something about Moist just doesn't seem right, especially.
