They beat me to it!

If anyone still reading this recalls my blogging from several years ago, I used to be singularly obsessed with Myst. If I had the time, I probably still would be; I've had a hankering to revisit Riven for some time now...sigh.
My dream job, I think, would be a film director, but that's not exactly the most profitable or practical dream. But if I were to reach such celestial heights, I would have loooved to have made movies out of the Myst novels, or at least some Myst movie. Rather like Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter (which, incidentally, I also have semi-dormant obsessions with), the Myst franchise has a whole mythology built around it out of which one could make a totally awesoooome movie. My dream, right there.
But these fiends beat me to it. I can't help but fear that their noble enterprise will come to naught...but oh man, I hope it works!
