As if a musical wasn't enough, we've now been contacted by a budding author about the prospect of writing a novel based on the idea of the Time Traveler's Convention. It amazes me how, three years later, people are still interested in what was originally just a kooky party idea.
I expect Hollywood next. And I want Ellen Page to play me.
Posted by rhode at March 28, 2008 10:14 PM | TrackBackI was thinking Laura Prepon (Donna from that 70s show). Actually, you could probably cast the whole TTC movie with the cast of that 70s show.
Clearly, Ellen Page is too young to play a sophisticated MIT grad. While Laura Prepon is a good choice, I suggest two as better.
First, to make sure the age and stylisms are the same, why not a birthday match... Brittany Spears! Exactly, the same age and the temperament seems to match as well.
Otherwise, how about Amy Adams? Another Minnesota girl making a name for herself in the big world?

you have to see her new film "smart people" - i saw it at sundance, and she is so fantastic in it...
Posted by: jenn at March 29, 2008 07:33 PMWell, I figure the movie won't be made for a few years, by which point Laura Prepon will be too old and Ellen Page will be just right.
Posted by: Erin at March 30, 2008 05:41 PMOkay, so clearly Ellen Page would either play Dorothy or be in some kind of live action version of Cat and Girl (she would be Girl, naturally, the part of Cat would be played by Rhys Ifans).
If bloggers continue getting book deals, its only natural for hollywood to start getting film ideas from web comics.
