Sorry if there's a post on this already. If so, this can be deleted, admins.

But aren't the people at Dave Cullen making a book consisting of passages written on BBM message boards? I remember hearing that online and I was wondering if anyone here knew anything about it. It's supposed to be released sometime this fall, likely available to order online.

Comments?

I was just on the davecullen site and it's huge! I still like it better here... :) It's more like a village here compared to their metropole. Anyway, I read about that somewhere, they have collected all the best posts and are going to publish them. It better not be all the posts about the discussion on what Jack and Ennis whispered in the SNIT... that would be boring... ;)

Apparently they are making a book..I wouldn't mind seeing it cause I'll collect anything pertaining to the movie.  I don't care for going on that site but I would still like to collect that book.

the book is to be posts by cullen forum members onsite, illustrating various themes of awareness, epeiphanies  and the like, experienced as a result of the book, the movie, and sharing about it online.  it looks to be VERY professionally executed.  i have allowed one of my posts to be in it, and i think it was well chosen.

it may be the first time in history a movie and/or a website has generated a book of personal revalations that sprang from said movie.  it is, i think, going to address the fact that the power of the movie was so great that forums, not just fansites, sprung up.  i would hope they at least allude to the multiple sites, and in fact i will put forth that idea dierctly to the guy in charge, whose ear i have.

one thing about a site that large, the talent pool is astonishing and nearly inexaustible. 

a heads up.  the book is rather expensive so far, as it is after all a vanity printing.  i still think they are getting gauged, but i am not on comittee, nor am i familiar with this industry.  i believe it will be a worthy addition to the movie memorabilia, and will include posts from some members of this forum from their participation there.
