Digressing, as one does, onto the subject of Toys.

A dead-on impression of Darryl Hannah speaking cetecean in Splash.

And Joan Cusack is great as usual

It's been a LONG time since I read the book but, in the book, I seem to recall this line being dead serious and absolutely bone-chilling and relentless. Whereas in the movie it comes across as comic after a while.

The book as I recall played the fantasy story pretty much straight and the humor and the wit was in the frame story about the excised boring parts of the S. Morgenstern "complete" story. But a frame story would have been impossible to film and the humor and wit migrated into the movie and made it much more comic and light-hearted than the book. That said, I do like the movie for itself and it is a tribute to William Goldman as a screenwriter and writer that they were able to make the movie at all.

Just once in a movie when the person says, "Hand me your gun ... No! Left hand," I just want the person to whip out the gun and shoot the bastard (be it a male or female bastard.)

In all of the times that people have been forced to give up their guns with their left hand at least one of them must be left handed.

Yes, that is random.
