The books are amazing and has caught much interest in the people. It may even become as famous as Harry Potter, if it becomes a movie. The love for Bartimaeus has to spread and conquer the world, well not exactly conquer, but you know what I mean.
I absolutely loved the books! It has great potential to be a movie, but I hope they follow the book really closely and don't screw it up. Make Bartimaeus a movie!!!
i love these books! ive always dreamed of directing the movie, even though im only 12! but to make the books a movie would be a really cool experience! anyway, thats all i have to say, except, I SUPPORT THIS PETITION!!!!!!!!!! bye
Dobby thinks that all fantasy books have a right to be movies! He is planning to audition for the role of imp#5. Dobby would also like to give a shout out to Simpkin.
Bartimaeus is making me sign this. He's threatening me with a Detonation. He says it's a big one. So this petition had better get through. P.S. He says not to let Daniel Radcliffe play Nathaniel.
Yeah, I support this petition because I support this petition. It's a petition, that's what you do to petitions. And, Bartimaeus is cool. Woo hoo, go Bartimaeus.
I would love to see this trilogy as a movie series, it would be legendary... Jon Stroud is a wonder, and if I didnt see a film come from this then I would be sorely disappointed!!
I support this petition. I will die seeing Bartimaeus on screen! I LOVE PTOLEMY and am DYING to see who might play him! PLEASE make the books into a movie!!!
This book is awesome! Ahahaha... :3 Well I think this book should be made into a movie to help prove there is a DIFFERENCE between this and Harry Potter. I just hope it doesn't become like... well to fake... Well I am pretty sure the movie will be fantastic but then there are the chances... I am talking to much... XD So I just wanted to say I support this petition!
I love the books - it'll great as a movie!! But didn't anyone read the page with the author's bio on it? Well, if you read properly, it clearly states that it will be turned into a movie, with rights bought by Miramax (I think). Don't people read these days? *tuts*
What could be better than A Bartimaeus Movie, I would love to see the little scamp! And Nathaniel sounds like my kinda guy! Hope the form changing doesn't look too crummy (for e.g buffy the vampire slyer)
I support this petition.
I really hope someone is planning to make a movie, or that someone will read this petition and then plan on making a movie. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
I support this petition.
This is an excellent book and would make an excellent movie as well. I'm sure many people (judging from the number of signatures here), including myself, would love to see this story on the silver screen.
i support this petition!!i dint think any book could ever top harry potter..but bartimaeus really ROCKS!! would love to see the book come alive on the big screen..
I support this petition. Three movies, definitly, not one. Bartimaeus should have one voice that identifies him all the time. This would make a brilliant movie. I can't wait to see one come out!
I support this petition. I read on wikipedia that Miramax is making a movie, it didnt give any further info but I cerntainly hope its true! The books are just absolutely great and I'm sure the movies would be a huge succes!
I support this petition. These books could doubtlessly be translated into a great cinematic triumph, and an inexpensive one, if the computer-animators play their cards right. This series has more than a fighting chance.
I support this petition. Hopefully it could be made into three brilliant movies, rather then one cramped one. This movie would fill the box offices. Don't twist it to appeal to kids, just keep true to the story. No cheapo series either, they distroyed Maddigans Fantasia that way.
I hesitantly support this petition. A movie could be really good, I loved the books. However, look at the travesty that happened to Harry Potter. Do you really want to see a great book twisted and mangled to make it appeal to little kids more?
Make the movie and do it RIGHT!!!!
I don't want some cheap excuse for one of the best books ever written! No cheap special effects, good actors and loyalty to the plot!
My wife and I are both fans of the series - we actually took Book 2 on our honeymoon to read to each other. We'd both love to see a movie made, *especially* with Tim Burton directing :-)
I started reading the book to come up with questions for a boy I was tutoring. I'm now almost finished the 3rd book. It'll be wonderful to see something so original and imaginative! I can't wait to see the magic described in the books on screen!
Bartimaeus rocks! I am a huge harry potter fan, and nothing can top those books....except bartimeaus! It was a wicked awesome book (1). the second was great, and going to read the third right now!
Right when I picked up The Amulet of Samarkand, I fell in love with Bartimaeus and his awesome personality. I also liked seeing how his relationship grew with Nethaniel.
Anyway, I think the movie will be SO kick-butt!!! (notice, I said WILL...)
They are making a movie for The Bartimaeus Trilogy. If you go to wikipedia.com and type in jonathan stroud, stroll all the way down and it says miramax is making the movie.
