Why do this to my favourite books???, 8 January 2006
Author: burny-7 from United Kingdom

If the makers of the Rebus films are reading this, please take this piece of simple advice.

Instead of trying to take one of the huge Rebus novels and cram it into one and a half hours, use one one of the earlier books which are quite straightforward tales or even take one of the short stories that Rankin has done and film or expand that.

How about writing a new story altogether for t.v? Because between the earlier John Hannah Rebus and now the Ken Stott version (which is better) you are in danger of destroying what could be the new "Morse" or "Taggart" which is a shame.

Oh and Rebus doesn't support Hibs, sort it out.
