See it!
It was fantastic. Even if there was a little cheese in spots!
Legend, Rollergirl, [insert PO name here when he finally signs up], and I saw it and all of us thoroughly enjoyed the movie! |

GAAZ, Ulrawolf and I saw it too! It's definitely a must see!!! Loved the humor, loved the story! I have to see it again because I pulled an all-nighter before and fell asleep for about 20 minutes of the movie. I really really approve. So far this is the best fantasy of the year, and the only movie I see giving it any competition is The Golden Compass. Action, Comedy, and romance definitely make this movie a BIG thumbs up!

<3 from a slightly more critical point of view, I have to say it was incredibly formulaic and cliche.
BUT, it has so much charm that you sort've don't care. ^_^ I enjoyed it thoroughly. It's not the best movie ever, and not quite what I'd expect from Neil Gaiman, but it was definitely worth seeing. |

How does it compare to the book?
I'm a huge fan of the book. And I'm kind of apprehensive of the idea of Claire Danes as the star. >_< She doesn't look the part at all. |

Aw, I really liked Claire Danes in the movie. I haven't read the book so I can't comment on how it compares, but I think she's been a fine actress in everything I've seen her in (except maybe X-men 3 but ah, I hated that movie and she really had a crap part in it). I was excited to see her in this, especially after falling in love with her in Shop Girl. Although I should say my opinion is very biased, as I said already I have not read the book and I'm already a Claire Danes fan. |

Here's a mad hint for all you book readers...The movie does in fact suck compared to the book.
Yes I know...How can they do that cramming 700 Pages of dialogue and scene descriptions into a two hour block and not remembering to keep an obscure scene that you simply can't live without seeing portrayed IRL? 
I have never seen a movie that was better or as good as the book. ^_^
Stardust was in fact an awesome ass movie. It had magic and whimsy the like of which has never been seen before. On a scale of Princess Bride and Stardust...Princess bride being the most boring 30 minutes of my life before shutting it off and Stardust possibly the best fantasy movie I've seen in a long time...I would give Stardust the rating of "Stardust" |

You didn't like Princess Bride? 
Anyway, Therin said he actually liked the movie better, but he said it was probably b/c he didn't like the guys writing style. |
