Brian Hoffman replied to Stuart Matthew Davis's discussion Books that don't translate well into movies"While we (me) are blasting movies, I feel an obligation to mention two movies that translated very well into film.

Stuart Matthew Davis replied to Tim Symonds's discussion Sherlock Holmes"I likely have a different view than most who have posted here, but I don't have a problem with the new movies. Holmes was a boxer, a cocaine user, he used disguises and was an all around oddball. I don't think the creative…"
Stuart Matthew Davis replied to Tim Symonds's discussion Sherlock Holmes"I'm not a lawyer by any stretch of the imagination, but it is my understanding that you can reprint all of Doyle's original work, but you cannot write new stuff without permission.

Cammy May Hunnicutt replied to Stuart Matthew Davis's discussion Does anyone else choose books by the locales in them?"I wonder how big a factor this is with people. Obviously means nothing in James Bond-type international gadding-about stories.

James Fouche replied to Stuart Matthew Davis's discussion Does anyone else choose books by the locales in them?"Hey Stuart!
I've read them across the board (or across the map), but I do like books that allow me a frame reference. Having been to a certain country or city gives the benefit of familiarity. Sadly, this backfires at times. I notice…"
