Traveler353 Posted February 14, 2010 #28 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Once Hollywood gets hold of this book I can see the movie being very loosley based on the origional. I see it turning more into something like the "Love Boat". So might as well just bring back the origional cast.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zack Adams Posted February 15, 2010 #30 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Well now, this is interesting... and a tad premature. I am indeed working with a screenplay writer in Hollywood represented by Dan Halsted (see link below). This week in mid Feb he is meeting with several folks with first-look deals with companies such as Fox and Dreamworks, the latter with a possibility of a TV series. It is very, very early to even guess what will happen, but rest assured that when I know, you will, too. The only thing I can say for sure is that that the screenplay writer assured me I will not be portrayed as Stifler just to make a quick buck. Thank Cat for that. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Halsted Great read, I finished it in 2 days :) I was SO glad you got out of the food service department :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All4fun&fun4all Posted February 15, 2010 #32 Share Posted February 15, 2010 My DBF who never reads anything more than car magazines read this book in two days. :eek:I am seriously impressed and he loved it as much as I did. I was hoping he would finish it by our cruise in June but DANG! TWO DAYS????:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunkissed Mommy Posted February 15, 2010 #34 Share Posted February 15, 2010 He responded elsewhere on CC that the second book will give more details about "Bianca" as well as his experience as the Art Auctioneer/Dealer (I forget which one he became) on Majesty of the Seas and another Carnival ship. I've been reading his blog and keeping up on Facebook because I am anxiously anticipating another chapter of his life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been reading his blog and keeping up on Facebook because I am anxiously anticipating another chapter of his life. You are quite right. I spent another couple awesome years at sea as an art auctioneer. There is much to say about that line of work, as well as the strange people who do it. The next book features Majesty of the Seas and Carnival Ecstasy in that capacity, with a nice return to Conquest, as well. And Bianca? Oh, there is oh so much more to tell about that. Worthy of a trilogy, she is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mosaic_mom Posted February 16, 2010 #36 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Great book, Brian. Keep us updated on the status of the next book and/or movie. Can't wait to hear about the art auctioneer job and especially more about Bianca. Trying to wait patiently. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYcruzzer Posted February 16, 2010 #37 Share Posted February 16, 2010 Brian, I loved your book. I just finished a cruise and sure enough I had a different perception as I watched the crew interact with each other. I became more interested in their personal stories. A few shared stories of life at sea. I cannot wait for a sequel ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisernh Posted March 29, 2010 #38 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Just finished the book. I am trying to figure out the timelines. If this were a movie it would have to be rated R. It was an easy read and you can actually picture things as we have all cruised before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yikes. But what an opportunity to get some premier product placement and advertisement! *Camera fades in at the gangway* "Welcome aboard, Mr & Mrs Smith! What did you do today?" "OH we just went to Diamonds International and ended up buying some beautiful jewelry with our Carnival SeaMiles MasterCard! Now we're off to play some bingo while junior heads up to the seaside theater to catch a movie on the giant LCD screen with 70,000 watt stereo system!"

Sort of like the uninhibited 21th century version of the Love Boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
