I read the books long before the TV series came out. While Sarah Polley was good, I never really felt that she looked the way Ramona was supposed to look (it was probably due to the bad wig). The casting in this new version looks pretty good... at least for Ramona. Beezus looks Hispanic! Oh, well.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like they captured some of the funny scenes in the books, too (like when Ramona crashed through the ceiling). If this movie's been done right, it could be a huge hit.
I dont remember the books very well but this looks AMAZING and wow the cast! Im sooooo excited!
ReplyDeleteI haven't thought about those tv episodes in years!! Wow, way to bring back the memories. Nothing however will ever top the book.
ReplyDeleteI think the casting for everyone looks great. What a fun trailer...gonna have to see this!
ReplyDeleteI LOVED those books as a kid. I can't wait to share them with my own daughter. I think the movie looks pretty cute!
ReplyDeletesI also completely loved those Ramona videos...I checked them out from the library over and over!I will give this one a try though...maybe it will introduce a new generation of kids to Ramona!
