Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day is being developed as a “high-concept family comedy” movie by Shawn Levy (Night at the Museum), according to Cynopsis Kids (via Variety). Rob Lieber (Septimus Heal: Magyk) will write the screenplay. Apparently there was also an animated musical special and a musical theatrical based on this much-loved book.

I’m not sure how I feel about this book being made into a movie. I happen to LOVE this picture book. And…er…I don’t see how a picture book becomes a full-length movie. I haven’t much liked the few movies I’ve seen based on picture books I love. Have you?

What I always come back to, though, is that if this gets more people to read the book, maybe it’s a good thing.

What do you think?

Jade Goody was a kind, brave person who campaigned to bring the smear tests for cervical cancer down to 20 as she had the illness herself.

Michael Jackson was the King of Pop.

These are some of the jokes made about them both:

Person 1: What is the difference between Michael Jackson and Jade Goody?

Person 2: Don’t know

Person 1: 3 months

Person 1: How do you put the Jackson 5 back together?

Person 2: Don’t know

Person 1: 4 bullets

These jokes are horrible and uncalled for, so why do people do it?

When you first listen to the jokes they are funny or entertaining but when you actually think about the people and their lives you realise that these jokes are insulting to them.
