What an excellent movie. I suspect you'll certainly get more out of it if you were a fan of the show, but it is pretty accessible if you weren't. Although a few of the events won't mean as much, but that's to be expected. One of the things that was different about the series was the size of the cast. Nine people on the ship and each of them was a little different and special in their own way. It's impossible for the movie to really play to that, but it does try. And for the most part it succeeds. So, go see it and then go see it again. Lovely, lovely movie.
Finished off Midnighters Book Two. Also enjoyable. Advance the story nicely, throws some intrigue in there like all good middle arcs of a trilogy. Look forward to the finish. I'm finding Westerfeld to be quite a nice writer. I've already started another book by him and it's looking pretty good as well. So if you run across him, you could do worse.
