Looking forward to..

I'm really excited because I just added some neat things to my queue on blockbuster, and 'ordered' a half dozen books from the library! So, here's what you have to look forward to in terms of disaster movie/book blogging:

Books--
Alas, Babylon by Pat Frank (I've read this before.. but it was a long time ago!)
The Beach
&
The House with a Clock in its Walls

Movies--
The Stand (parts 1 & 2)
Megaladon
&
TMNT

I'm actually a little scared to watch The Stand because it is one of my all-time favorite books. I am a little dubious about Rob Lowe as Nick, and definitely would not have cast Molly Ringwald as Fran. I am going to reserve judgment until after I watch, but then I might have to post my theoretical re-casting ideas!
