The sun ain't gonna shine anymore is a bit darker than I normally go for (though I like to remember it is right at the start of their partnership); but in it rosywonder has given us a short but powerful fic not to be missed.

Round Table - The Box Set, Yes or No...

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

I noticed the other day that people were talking about the new box set and a very spiffy price on Amazon.com  Seems the movie has done one of two things:
1) Spurred sales of all things UNCLE, or...
2) Left retailers with excess merchandise.

The sale is over, but the MFU page is pretty full... see it HERE
So, what do you think?  Are we going to experience a deluge of new fans, both for the show and the movie?  Movie only?  TV purists?
Did anyone buy the set at that Fab price of just under $60?
Talk to me people!

The new movie.

I completely loved the movie. I can live with the funky back stories. I love the Gabby character, Hugh grant was fun as Mr waverly. I actually enjoyed this Illya. He actually was very much the character I loved. Napoleon as art thief was quite good. Reminded me of the back story to the Robert Wagner show--It takes a Thief.

Which reminds me-- there was a lot of nods to old shows and THE old show, itself: the split screens of Mission Impossible, and the banter between the two characters-- especially at the fashion house, was great.

Napoleon was much more the napoleon of the first season, possibly more of the character that Fleming intended.

Please note that I also love the new Star Trek movies as well.
