a movie? is that really necessary? the book wasn’t any good. it initially seemed like an interesting idea, but ended up just ruining the characters.
why?
funny novelty book. Natalie is great, but seriously?
I love the P&P and tried to read P&P&Zombies but just couldn’t get through it. I didn’t think it was that clever or entertaining. I’m not opposed to Natalie as any kind of Elizabeth Bennett, but I don’t see the need for this movie.
so Natalie will attempt another botched English accent?
Natalie Portman + Zombies? I just got a b0ner!
P&P is my favorite Jane Austin. The Natalie Portman movie is not one that I will watch. I can’t even imagine why this movie of all movies would be chosen for such destruction.
