As a movie Nightfall sucked, as a movie (witrh no relation to the book)
I, Robot wasn't that bad, as a mindlessly expensive piece of silliness.

Not having read it, I have no idea how close to the book the film
Battlefield Earth remained.

Well, I'm out of here.  See y'all (or some number off you) at WSFA
tonight.
