Bridge to Terabithia

This probably isn't a movie any of you guys will be interested in..but it was my favorite book when I was a kid.

Walt Disney Pictures' Bridge to Terabithia

If anyone knows the story, don't give it away =P Its a pretty depressing book.

Girl is way too cute to be Leslie from what I remember of the book (but it was a long time ago since I read it).

I'm kind of offended you would think that I wouldn't like that. That movie looks totally fucking pwn to the fifth power. You bitch.

Yes, yes it was. But it was a staple in elementary school English classes, I'm sure. (Or was it Middle school/Jr. High? I forget when we read it.)

Ok, that preview totally lost me. So you took the imaginations of the characters of the two kids and turned them into a ton of CGI for a story that is a gigantic downer?

Really, I have no idea why children's books have to be so horrible. Between this and Charlotte's Web coming out a whole new generation of children can get scarred. Why not rerelease a digitially remastered Old Yeller and go for the trifecta?

It looks good, but it just gets me even more excited for Where The Wild Things Are.

BBS movie

None of you ever saw the BBC (I think it was them) adaptation of this?
I think I have that on a ooollllddddd vcr tape from the mid 80s but I'm completely clueless as to how to convert that to some other media :P
Was a very good story and I don't think I ever even read the book.
Ahh here it is
DVD Empire - Item - Bridge To Terabithia / DVD-Video

Agreed. She was supposed to be really plain and very tomboyish. I thought the same thing when I saw the preview.

Anyway, I didn't know that this book was a staple book in schools. I never read it in school, and most of the people I know have never read it either. Sorry to jump to conclusions James!

She's no Emma Watson. Looking like a decent kids flick though. Never heard of the story.

I think when i read it I pictured her as having a realy cute face. I think that's because I happened to know alot of girls that had the short hair tomboy look with cutefaces.

I'm kind of happy they're making a movie about this. too many happy endings in movies.

My God...a fantasy movie I might actually get my wife to go see with me. This was one of her favorite books as a kid too.

For some reason, this often got the "girl book" stigma ala "a wrinkle in time", thus in my impressionable youth, I didn't pick it up. Now I might go read this...the trailer looks good.

I just bought the book for my best friend's 11 year old daughter. Its a really short book (much shorter than I remember it being!) I think it would take a couple hours tops to read. Definately worth it though, I don't see it being a 'girl's book' really.
