Cassandra Clare and the Panned Picture
When we last left out heroine she was leafing some thorny mahogany pickle to her partner-in-crime to go to her big movie premiere.

Well the first of the Mortal Instrument movies is out, ladies and gents!

While not doing terribly bad (Sony had nothing to lose apparently), it didn't exactly shine either taking in only $9 million through the weekend and $14 million at the moment.

So Cassie Claire, er, Clare, has had to do a wee bit of backpedaling.
Covered here but the important tweets are at the bottom.

You see, she didn't really have any control over the film and so if it bombs, it's the movie producer's fault. Nope, zero input on the whole dealio.

Will there be a sequel, given the budget versus the income? Will it matter? Who knows. Expect to see the Mortal Instruments t-shirts next month at your local Hot Topic and see Cassie Clare in her next adventure, Dancing With Wool!

(It could be wood again. Or Woof? Woozie? Dancing With Who?)

Stephen King is such an awesome guy. My Mom's a big fan, and I wish I was. The only book of his that I've ever read was Carrie. I want to attempt the Mist, though I know my reason for it is completely ass backwards (I loved the ending of the movie, which I know isn't the same in the book, but I'd still love to give the book a read).

My Mom got to see him on his promotional run for 11/22/63, where he read a couple of chapters. Wish I could've gone, they had this fun little event where you payed your admission by buying the book, and while doing so you had a chance of getting an autographed copy when you went to pick it up.

	For what it's worth, King apparently liked the movie ending better. Also that's completely awesome and I'm really jealous of your mom! (Reply to this)(Parent)
