if you know Joe Morelli, Stephanie Plum and Lula, I want to talk to you!

The movie "One for the Money" opens January 27. And I for one, am counting down the days.....

Twenty-four days. As long as there's an 8 PM or so show, I'll be seeing it that first day.

My DH said he saw the commercial on tv for it -- I haven't seen it on tv yet.

I saw the movie trailer online.

I saw the commercial last weekend for it. I am on Book #8.

 

[Grumpy's Gal]

I saw the commercial last weekend for it. I am on Book #8.

I don't know for sure if the movie only covers book #1 or if it might cover part of book #2 also.

Does anyoneknow?

I read all 18 books and now I'm re-reading them. I'm on book #3.

What what? What do you mean, what? Have you been reading this thread?

...not. really.

The movie preview I saw had no Ranger in it. That's the one that I want to see. I think that Lula is spot on! Exactly how I picture her in my mind. Katherine is really a reach for the Stephanie part. I am not a fan. But I am going to see the movie because I am a fan of the series.

I am a huge fan of the books. I think it is hard to live up to the fantasy people have in their minds as to who should play the characters.

I think Lula and Connie seem to be good choices.

Stephanie, I think should have been played by Amanda Peet. For some reason, I think of Matthew McCougnahey (sp) when I think of Joe M even though JE describes him as having black hair. Not sure who should play Ranger, I always picture the Rock.

...I think that Lula is spot on! Exactly how I picture her in my mind. Katherine is really a reach for the Stephanie part...

....yes, ITA on both counts.....Hiegl's[sp?] hair should be MUCH curlier and frizzier....

 

[kimmar067]

....Stephanie, I think should have been played by Amanda Peet....

...OMG, I was thinking the same thing!! I just couldn't think of her name!

 

[PrincessInOz]

....uhhhh, WHAT???!?!?!?![*spits coffee through nose at 'puter screen*]...

Kimmar - you're definitely slipping into Old Fogieness!

The movie "One for the Money" opens January 27. And I for one, am counting down the days.....

I have to wait until 16 Feb. That's what you get for living in the back water across the pond.

 

[Grumpy's Gal]

2 weeks from today!

 

[kimmar067]

2 weeks from today!

.....is when I'll be on a cruise ship....

 

[kimmar067]

Kimmar - you're definitely slipping into Old Fogieness!

...you're only saying that because I'm older than dirt.

 

[Grumpy's Gal]

.....is when I'll be on a cruise ship....

they usually have movies on cruise ships.....who knows! Maybe you will get to see it!

 

[FergieTCat]

Even though I am completely opposed to Katherine Heigel and Debbie Reynolds (although it's not like they can revive Estelle Getty), I am counting the days as well.

I just read 18 and bought 16 and 17 in paperback, so I'm half way through 16 again. I am getting to the age where I have no short term memory, so by the time something comes out in paperback, it's like reading a brand new book!

 

[PrincessInOz]

...you're only saying that because I'm older than dirt.

Your tag says "the snarky one". The "older than dirt" tag belongs to someone else.

Although.....the shoes do also fit.

 

[CynBeth]

I just started reading Book 12. For those who are fairly new and have not read every book what book is everyone else on?

 

[Grumpy's Gal]

one more day! woo hoo!

Ok, on my iphone I saw a link to a movie trailer and it was different than previous ones I have seen......Steph is handcuffed to the shower and calls Ranger and he says 'I'm busy". She calls him back and says "I'm naked" and he says "be right there!"


I can't wait..................

 

[Grumpy's Gal]

I forgot to ask -- when you guys see the movie, can you post here what you thought of it? Good or bad.

I can't see it until Saturday. I'm just counting down the hours -- 48 hours for me.
