Words from Atrus Himself

.

“Hey Guys,

Read through the “scriptment” and I really liked it! Got me very excited – great job! I would just love to see this movie! (yeah, I’m biased, I know)

I have only a couple of comments at this point:

[comments deleted to protect sensitive information]

Anyway, those are just two small points in the whole process that will inevitably involve much more weeping and gnashing of teeth :)

Again, great job!

Rand”

We really couldn’t have hoped for a better response. Two notes on 80 pages of script is something of an accomplishment – especially when they’re coming from one of the authors of the book.

It’s a good day.

    What a great review from Rand – can’t ask for more of a blessing than that!
    …
    And how prophetic he was: “[script changes] that will inevitably involve much more weeping and gnashing of teeth” – just look at Adrian’s recent Panera Bread incident… :-)

    “Sensitive information”? Oh, that sounds good. When will said senstive information be availible? :)

    Ah, thanks for sharing this letter with us! Not only is it an amazing confidence booster (in your work), but –

    It’s also from Atrus! *giggle*

    see, you guys need to somehow get Rand Miller in as a cameo in the movies, if not Atrus himself when you do the other books (Assuming you do). that would be so cool to be watching the movie then all of a sudden jump out of your seat and say, “oh my gosh!!!! It’s Atrus!!!!!! the Real Atrus!!!!!!!” at least, i know i would.
