(...) LEGO's license is for the movie. If something's not in the movie, it's not going to be in the LEGO sets. If they leave Norbert out of the movie? No LEGO Norbert. The only way LEGO will be doing something from the other books is if for some (...) (24 years ago, 21-Mar-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.trains, lugnet.town)

(...) Well, in that case, I hope they do lots of buildings from, eh, crud. The wizard town near Hogwart's. I can only imagine they'd be really good fodder for making medieval/small European town buildings. eric (24 years ago, 21-Mar-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.trains, lugnet.town)

(...) Terry Brooks' The Sword of Shanara (or the Sword of Sha-na-na, for those of us who like to sneer at it), illustrated by the Brothers Hildebrandt (at the height of their Tolkien-illustrating fame). It is a character-for-character, (...) (24 years ago, 21-Mar-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I've only read a little of his stuff (at a friend's urging), and after ninety years of reading I was still in the first chapter. Not, for me, the most engaging prose style. Regretably (or not), I can't really assess his plagiarism, but I (...) (24 years ago, 21-Mar-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Robert Asprin before Pratchett, and De Camp/Pratt (oooooo, Pratchett, what a rip-off) before Asprin. (...) Yes, but Dick doesn't relate to Castles. :-) Bruce (24 years ago, 21-Mar-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) As an aside Norbert is definitely a key figure in the movie. At the Toy fair some companies did display their Norbert toys. How Lego might create Norbert depends a bit on which stage of his growth they choose to depict. Jonathan L (24 years ago, 21-Mar-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.trains, lugnet.town)
 
  Re: -z- Preview of Harry Potter -z-
 
lol I suppose this will be happening a lot until the movie comes out-- someone mentions in passing something about the Hogwart's Express, that subject is quickly dropped and a long thread about HP continues on in .trains.

  Re: -z- Preview of Harry Potter -z-
