Abarat...a movie?

[BlueGothKitten]

Hey, has anybody read the Abarat books by Clive Barker? they're really good, and they're going to make a movie out of them...only I'm worried. Disney's bought the rights, and to tell the truth, I don't have much confidence in Disney ever after the Hitchhiker's. Also, the guy who adapted the screenplay for Dune is working on it, and I really didn't like how the film version of Dune turned out.
