Jared in the Christmas Cottage - so far not too bad!

So I only had a chance to watch 25 minutes of Jared in The Christmas Cottage before I had to go to work this morning, but so far it's not bad! I had read the movie adaptation novel quite awhile ago, and they've cut a lot out of what's in the book.

Jared looks SO CUTE in all his little knit hats and scarves and his adorable floppy hair. :-) And it's kinda funny to see him write and paint with his left hand.

Peter O'Toole's dialogue is a bit heavy handed, though, and Maria Gay Harden is a total space cadet.

I totally squee'd when I saw Richard Burgi as Thomas Kinkade's father. My two favorite fandoms off all time have collided! The Sentinel and Supernatural! Awesome!

And I had totally forgotten that Gina Holden is in this, too, and what a bizarre coincidence that I just happened to have watched Wendigo last night. :-)

I'm liking the supporting cast of all the townspeople, especially the neighbors across the street from each other in a Christmas decoration war with each other. Ha!

I hope to have time tonight to finish watching it.

How in the world did you get a copy of the movie!!! It's not out yet, is it?

Nope, I got a download link to it. :-)

Enjoy!

Thank you for your willingness to share. I keep going back and forth. I've ordered the dvd from Amazon so I'm not sure I want to watch it...... but the suspense is killing me. LOL!

You're welcome, K! And I'm buying the DVD as well, because I want to watch Jared on my big TV instead of my computer and because the download has this "property of Sony Pictures" across the screen the whole time.

Thank God they cut out a lot of what was in the book!

I don't think I could ever download a whole movie, so I'll wait for the DVD.

Actually...I thought the beginning of the movie was really, really choppy because so much from the book is missing. Heck, I just want more Jared! LOL!

Yeah, with your dialup you'd still be waiting by the time the movie did come out on DVD! :-)

{{{hugs you 'til breathing becomes an issue}}}

Took me many hours to download due to sucky internet connection but I have a copy now and I love you for it! Only thing that could equal my current joy would be to get my hands on a copy of Ten Inche Hero but that I fear will be a long time coming.

Thanks so much for sharing!

LOL! I feel like Jess from the second season bloopers - "Can't....breathe..."

Aww, you're quite welcome! I'm glad I could help spread the Jared love. :-)

Oh my GOD, I live for the day we all finally get to see that movie!
