'Bzzt'.

That wishlist of mine is really piling up.
I really want one of these



It's a polaroid camera,for those of you who don't know.I's the kind of camera that develops its photos instantly.I used to have alot of fun with my aunt's 'roid.
Many years ago that was.Yoda I am.

Anyway,I recently read this book by Jefferey Deaver titled 'Shallow Graves'.
It's about..well,I can't summarise but here's the summary from the author's website.

"Location scouting is to the film business what Switzerland is to war. John Pellam had been in the trenches of film making, with a promising Hollywood career — until a tragedy sidetracked him. Now he's a location scout, who travels the country in search of shooting sites for films.

When he rides down Main Street, locals usually clamor for their chance at fifteen minutes of fame. But in a small town in upstate New York, Pellam experiences a very different reception — his illusionary world is shattered by a savage murder, and Pellam is suddenly center stage in an unfolding drama of violence, lust, and conspiracy, which have a stranglehold on this less-than-picture-perfect locale."

You know how when youre reading a book you imagine the characters?So I imagined the characters and a few people came to mind.If anybody ever decides to make a movie based on this book I hope they get either Indiana Jones(Harrison Ford) or Oskar Schindler,Obi-Wan(Liam Neeson) as John Pellam,the main protagonist.

As for Pellam's friend,Marty,They should get Jamie Bell(Jimmy from King Kong).
I think he'd be perfect for Marty.You guys wouldnt get it till you read the book.

I'm not saying the book is excellent or anything but I'm also not saying that it's terrible.Just go see for yourself.

better get going.
