“See the sensational film!”
Or:
“Go see the movie instead, it’s awesome!”
“What are you doing looking at this book? See the movie!”
“Are you still holding this crummy book? Didn’t we tell you to see the movie instead?”
When a friend of mine was at school, he was standing in the lunch line when he overheard one of the older pupils ask someone, “Leslie, are you the guy on the front of Scanners?” (the video sleeve used the same art).
Which is funny, but also begs the question, what on Earth did Leslie look like?!
Wow, they’ll make a movie out of anything now, won’t they? I mean, do you want to watch a movie about David Cronenberg’s computer hardware and how he uses it to convert printed material into digital/electronic form?
And just how many scanners does David Cronenberg have? Look, I’ll admit I’m a computer hoarder (3 PCs, one ancient laptop, a Mac Pro, a Mac G5 Tower and a G4 Cube, that’s all), but I won’t write a screenplay about them…

Ever had that feeling you’re going to sneeze, but it doesn’t quite arrive?

Incautiously, Bob decided to try the seven-alarm chili.

Look, Donald…you lost. Just get over it.

Just another normal day for Michael Ironside.

“Joann” spent a lot of time lovingly painting that belt buckle.

As he stepped into the arrivals hall, Bob realized what people meant when they said that Arizona had a “dry heat”.

Bob arrived at the Botox clinic in critical condition.

Well, since you can’t put a GIF on a book cover I suppose this will have to do.

The novelization of the movie of the screenplay of the ideas of Cronenberg.
I’m not sure why they had Joann repaint the movie still instead of using a photo. Maybe she worked cheaper?
The font is boringly average and yet annoying with the small type in red on black.
Obviously this is the classic example of head asploding, but his shirt seems to be asploding too.

Even when asploding, it is poor form to tuck one’s tie into a waistband.

David Cronenberg’s Scanners?
Wow, they’ll make a movie out of anything now, won’t they? I mean, do you want to watch a movie about David Cronenberg’s computer hardware and how he uses it to convert printed material into digital/electronic form?
And just how many scanners does David Cronenberg have? Look, I’ll admit I’m a computer hoarder (3 PCs, one ancient laptop, a Mac Pro, a Mac G5 Tower and a G4 Cube, that’s all), but I won’t write a screenplay about them…

David Cronenberg’s scanners probably have huge, veiny eyes you put the paper on.
