Featured Story of the Month for April 2008 - Nothing Gold Can Stay by Maggie

I'm a total ding-a-ling. America Ferrera would be a great Precious, I think! I've only seen her has Carmen in The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, but I realized she'd be perfect.... I think anyway. Even though she'd only have a small part. But hey, Ewan McGregor had a five-minute part as Alex Rider's uncle Ian Rider in Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker and he was awesome!

He might do. He and Nick are the same age anyway, I think, according to IMDB. Dang, and that boy was in Casper in '95... Yep, he's a Nick.
--- Quote ---Awww, you stopped after Danny nearly raped Sandy? lmao The way you described it is hilarious! But hey, the movie is fabulous, but that's only cause I'm obsessed with musicals ;)

Nice to see I made you laugh. :D Seriously, though... IDIOT!!! And I still haven't finished watching it either.

My family and I finally watched The Outsiders the other day when it arrived from Netflix. It was the "Complete Novel" version which, according to reviews, was far better than the original. Having not seen the original, I wouldn't know. But it was still a great movie, very true to the book. And the big names in it! Patrick Swayze, Ralph Macchio, Rob Lowe, Tom Cruise (though we barely see him as Soda's friend Steve), Emilio Estevez... holy cow.
All the same, I think it could stand to be remade. Poor directing.
Who do you think would be great in each part? I think Kirsten Dunst or Julia Stiles with a red wig would do a good Cherry Valance. I'm not sure who they could find to do Darry, cuz Patrick Swayze did a great job, especially being nine years or so older than his character. Mom said he sure didn't look twenty. Me, I didn't care. He did a darn good job.

Just because I'm late getting back to this topic...

Oh poo Dani...why are you blushing for? I think I'm still in a bit of denial that the series is finished. Not to mention I cried also. LoL.

Well, we've got about four more years or so until the movies are completed. They're splitting the seventh movie into two parts.
