'Bring On The Night'
[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.
Your synopsis is more entertaining than Heinlein's book by a factor of a lot.
I agree. I hardly recognized your Moon, Allyson, and I just read the book. Sounds perfect for Hollywood.
Surely Tim will spice it up with interesting dialog and character development. Please. Hint, hint, Tim.

And by "development" you mean "murder."
Development, murder, same diff.
I think Tim's version will actually be, you know, good. Whereas mine is, you know, sleazy.
Although Heinlen seemed to appreciate sleazy, mastabatory, inane crap.
Allyson, you didn't tell us who is going to play Kit, er, I mean Data, er, the magical self-aware computer.
So, Allyson, are you comparing yourself to Heinlein? You're too hard on yourself. You have sleazy, interesting, crap (and I mean this in the best possible way). Heinlein's is just sleazy crap.
Jeez. One of the founding fathers of science fiction, and his work seems to be nearly universally disliked, at least by the smart and creative folks here.
edited to clarify who is being compared to whom, because otherwise this post makes no sense.
Tim "Get her words out" Minear will be the voice of Mike.
Or Stephen Hawking.
mastabatory
You may have taken lessons to lose your accent, but your fingers still represent.
Actually, with "his" ability to sound like anyone, we could have many "Mikes." Let's really confuse folks! Perhaps we could have Joss too. Those Joss/Tim partnerships seem to work ok. I mean, look at how well Buffy turned out.
If Tim Minear -is- Stephen Hawking, and I believe he is, this Moon project just got a hell of a lot more interesting.
