Salutations!

Yahoo! reports that "Julia Roberts, Oprah Winfrey and John Cleese have joined the voice cast for 'Charlotte's Web,' a feature film adaptation of E.B. White's classic children's book."

The casting choices sound fabulous, but look what Hollywood did to Stuart Little... I will now commence praying, "Please don't wreck Charlotte's Web; Please don't wreck Charlotte's Web; Please don't wreck Charlotte's Web..."

Yeah, I actually didn't care much for the original film of Charlotte's Web. It's been a long time, though. I'd be willing to give it another look. On the other hand, I thought the Chuck Jones adaptation of The Phantom Tollbooth was okay. It's such an amazingly language-rich book that I don't think a film could truly capture it, but they did okay, in my opinion...
