Moving Pictures - got a lot of references the general (non discworld fans) public are likely to get. Got a love story. Lots of slapstick. Got a big cinematic climax: 50ft woman climbing a skyscraper with an ape in her hand. Made for the movies.

...and then whine when I run out). The customer mentioned Discworld. [continued under the next question.] I eventually picked up Moving Pictures and thought it was OK, but wasn't ready to give up on the series, figuring it might have been a weak one. [continued again] I have. I decided to...

...was the only place where I saw cartoons, and they were the ones that were made on film and intended to be seen in the theater. Moving Pictures is a total nostalgia trip for me. Young theater buffs may see all the films, but there is an aspect to the total experience that is very hard to...

The more you know about old movies and movie theaters, the funnier Moving Pictures is.

I'm in the middle of Moving Pictures, there a few lines that made me chuckle When Victor thought that a good name for a Rabbit would be Flopsy and the rabbit said Look Pal!, that was funny and when the dwarfs started to sing the Hi Ho song and couldn't understand why :?: there are lot of quips...

my fav funniest is Moving Pictures, just because I got most of the quotes and movie references. but the first laugh out loud was from Mort, ok not the funniest book but I dare anyone to read the section when Death arrives in the town square without a chuckle. I was on the central line and I...

...A fair number of Terry's books follow a recognisable pattern. During a pub lunch with Rob one time, I mentioned how much I enjoyed Moving Pictures with all the film references, seeing as I spent sometime in Hollywood in the 80's. Rob said that Terry reads everything and misses nothing...

I'm reading Moving Pictures, I particularly like character Victor, He thought there was something unusual about Gaspode, because normal Anka Morpork dogs don't go woof :lol: :lol:

I had to go back about thirty pages in Moving Pictures as when i'm off i only read at Night, so it's easy to lose track....... :?

I'm a bit peeved off i'm in the middle of Moving Pictures and i've forgotten it luckily i've got The Long earth on my Kindle so i can read that again :D

Pooh's not around these days, so you can stop pretending now. ;) For sheer number of laugh out loud moments I would have to go with 'Moving Pictures' (playing a game of 'spot the reference' was quite amusing as well). :D

There's the otherwise un-named cat in "Moving Pictures", who is essentially a feline Gaspode developing unwelcome sentience and colour vision; he manifests distinct characteristics of Tom (as in "and Jerry") and Sylvester from the cartoons. although not named ( a little romantic bit of me...

Moving Pictures?

I rather like the two elephants in the cellar of the Opera House in Maskerade. Rumor has it that they are a nod to the thousand elephants in Moving Pictures.

Here's your Advent Window #9 - Moving Pictures as read by Nigel Planer! http://soundcloud.com/isisaudio/moving- ... s-by-terry

Its still a multi-layered colorful world, its just that many of those layers don't need to be emphasized as much anymore. I'm reminded of the same arguments being lodged at the harry potter films, the counter argument being, do we really need to have the moving staircases and talking pictures...

Dear Mr. Terry Pratchett and the Discworld Community A long time ago, through pure serendipity, I came across my first Discworld book: Small Gods. It was quite possibly one of the most insightful, enjoyable and clever books I had ever had the pleasure of reading. Small Gods led to Reaper Man...

Moving Pictures is a hoot!

I am reading them in chronological order and have got onto Thief Of Time... I really can't wait to read them all again to fully comprehend the books. I am definitely looking forward to Mort and Moving Pictures again.
