A Wee Free Men movie?!

Not the book I'd have expected anyone to start with, but it did seem to get the most attention in the States and won some sort of award. Now if only Dreamworks would do something with Bromeliad. NO, I take that back! Not till I get there! You guys are still waiting for me, right?

This just in from Variety: TWIRLYNOODLE TO SIGN CONTRACT WITH DREAMWORKS

[(Anonymous)]

Well, now you've done it - now you HAVE to get a job with Dreamworks because everyone expects you to! Let me know if you need a good contract lawyer...
BTW, you're absolutely right: I think Mr. Campbell is an absolute genious - tragically underused - but he's not right for EVERY role, obviously (he was miscast, although humorously so, as the dooomed boyfriend in "Congo")

Re: Dreamworks

I am afraid.

Yes, well, some people would say you should be. Like many corporations, I hear they tend to take as much advantage of you as you'll let them. A lot of weekend and overtime work (paid) is apparently "expected" in exchange for free food and 2 weeks off for Christmas, although a friend of mine, Barry Johnston, worked there (has since moved on to Pixar apparently), and he flat out refused to do it, with no apparent repercussions. Sounded like nobody wanted to rock the boat, assuming there'd be trouble, but it it was more bluff than business. Anyway I have friends who didn't like working there and didn't stay long, and others who have worked there for a while and like it as much as any other place - their next few projects look pretty, at least. ( I can put you in touch with some of them if you want their candid opinion, although there is reason to believe that Disney,at least, may be doing some traditional projects in the future...maybe keep this part out of your blog - it's kinda hush-hush. Just something to think about)
