Sandra said: Tee, I hope that more of the James Patterson books are made into movies. The books are way better though. Who do you see as Alex? Sam Jackson? I don't see Denzel in the role really. He's got to be a nice mid-forties age range; not a 20 something hip hoper. I read Violet are Blue over the holidays--great thriller! ------------------------------------ Tee responds: Sandra, ummmm...not Denzel, but since I'm not a big television person, I'll have to think some more on this...I have a guy in mind, but I don't know his name. My hubby is the TV expert, so I'll ask him tomorrow. But as for Sampson, I can see someone like Ving or the guy who played in The Green Mile. And I enjoyed Violets are Blue, but Four Blind Mice is BETTER...LOL, so hurry up and check it out so we can discuss. Oh, there's a new author out now with a book that reminds me of James Patterson's writing...his name is Keith Lee Johnson. His heroine is a black FBI Special Agent (Phoenix Perry)...and her nemesis is a nympho-assasin for hire. Ahaha...that's my definition of her. Anywho, it's a pageturner, check it out. Here's a sneak peek of it where he has 10 chapters online: http://www.keithleejohnson.com/pretensespro.htm -Tee |

Morgan Freeman has always played Alex Cross, although he's much older than the character in the book. What about the brother from NYPD? |

Sandra...I was thinking of the guy who plays on Third Watch, the EMT guy. I could even see Blair Underwood in the role or even Lawrence Fishbourne as either...LOL Oh, Geoff said Eric LaSalle for Alex. I can't picture him... -Tee |

Tee & Yukio, I don't see Alex as Blair or the Third Watch guy. Maybe the brother on NYPD but a little older. Yukio is right, I think Morgan is older than the character. I do agree that Lawrence Fishbourne would be a good choice. Thanks for the recommendation Tee, I will check out Keith Johnson's book--you are such an enabler Have you read 1st To Die by Patterson? |
