Quotes:
Pete Crenshaw:I've got an idea. You could stay here overnight.
Chris:No, I don't want to be any trouble.
Pete Crenshaw:It's no trouble at all. I've got it figured out. You could stay in the bottom bunk with me.
Bob Andrews:No! I - I mean, I think it would be, uh, she'd be *safer* in the top bunk with me. She - she might uh hit her head on the bottom bunk.
Pete Crenshaw:No, that's okay. You wouldn't wanna take space away from *Teddy*.
Bob Andrews:I don't have a teddy bear!
Pete Crenshaw:Yes you do -
[Pete points, Bob slaps Pete's arm]

if it would be any good..., 24 May 2008
Author: AccessCardRequired

the film would have a US theatrical release - don't you think. Saw the film, loved the books as a kid, but please what what this all about? Nothing of the flick reminded me of the lovely books. The kids are too polished, too wise, too boring - that is not the acting, but the weak, weak script they had too suffer trhough. Why South Africa? I can tell you, cause it is cheap to shoot there, nothing else. The film was a major disappointment in Germany (box office). Generated some 900.000 viewers - tha'ts not enough to recoup the investment of nearly 10. Mill Euros in budget. No idea, why they made another one. Too sad, great promise, weak, very weak result.
