P&P Blog Update: New layout, Special Guest Blogger, and Book Giveaway contest

By -
Hello, everyone!

You may have noticed the new changes to this blog upon visiting here today. I've just updated it with a new layout/look. I changed the main header banner ... and re-arranged the sidebar contents (in case, you didn't noticed, lol). What do you think of the new look/layout? Love it? Hate it? Feel free to post your thoughts/opinions in the comments section here. Any feedback from any of you (regular readers and visitors) is appreciated. Thanks again for visiting. Hope you have enjoyed reading all the P&P actors' news/articles previously posted here.

Next, I've updated the Weekly Poll (as it hasn't been updated in so long...).

Another is I've added a promo banner above and just below the header banner (to help promote the TSBO novel's worldwide release) for my friend Sharon Lathan's website to make it easier for you all to find the link to her site as her book launched is fast approaching. See a recent previous The Darcy Saga related post here: Two Shall Become One available now at Target for more info.

Speaking of Sharon and her TSBO novel's wordwide launch, as I've previously posted here as well as the promo banner above, it is now available at all participating Target stores and will be released everywhere in March 1st, 2009!

Sharon will also be my special guest blogger here starting Feb. 22nd and she'll be posting some more info, essays, reviews of her novel, my exclusive interview about her, *book-giveaway (yes, she'll be giving away a signed copy of her TSBO novel in our first drawing contest here. Stay Tune for more details about this very soon!) and more P&P related stuff in this blog. So, stay tune and be sure to keep checking back for this blog here.


Here are important dates for ya'll to remember:

Special Guest Blogger: Sharon Lathan
  • February 22, 2009
  • February 27, 2009
  • March 3, 2009 *Book Giveaway contest

Alright, that's all here for today. Have a great week to you all! Happy Presidents' Day to my fellow American P&P fans/readers/visitors. Enjoy today's holiday esp. for those of you who are off from school and work.

    Jeane, it looks fantastic! I loved the old layout as well, but can attest to how fun it is to mess stuff around sometimes as I have done the same on my website frequently. I really like the mini-snapshots of the movie characters. Really well done! And of course the soft blue background is vaguely reminiscent of a certain gentleman's eyes. :)

    I appreciate the banner for my book. You are just too sweet for words! Thanks, a million times thanks.

    I love the new layout! The previous one's header image, I find too big.

Happy Birthday Rosamund Pike!

Today ( January 27th ) is the lovely and ethereally beautiful,  Golden Globe ,  BAFTA , Academy Award nominee  for  Best Actress  (for her outstanding performance as  Amy Dunne  in  Gone Girl ) and Emmy Award winner  Rosamund Pike  (aka  Pride & Prejudice 2005 's very own  Jane Bennet )'s  42nd Birthday ! Or is it?!?! Miss Pike herself just posted on her official Instagram page that today is her internet birthday (and somewhat not her real birthday)! Well, color me surprised (much like her P&P co-star Rupert Friend’s birthday confusion...) as I’ve been celebrating her birthday on this day for years, lol. I blame her IMDB and Wiki pages for not providing her real birthdate, if her actual birthday is, in fact not today! Although there’s that one time it was listed on the 28th, but for years and even now it’s still listed as the 27th! Which is correct?  Unless, Miss Pike can clarify and correct that..for now, I’ll continue to celebrate her internet birthday today! Still,

Top 10 Favorite Pride & Prejudice Movie Quotes

Our P&P (2005) movie's 10th Year Anniversary event here continues... One of the many things I love about Pride & Prejudice ( 2005 ) movie is the memorable and quotable quotes (and dialogue ). I know pretty much every line/quote uttered by various characters in this movie by heart. There isn't just one to remember because there are so many unforgettable quotes and one-liners from this movie. For my Top 10 Favorite Pride & Prejudice Movie Quotes here, it was very hard to pick and just narrow it down to 10, but that's the point of making a top 10 list. I know I left out a lot, but I managed to pick 10 that I can quote instantly and love the most. Obviously, the top 2 are a fan favorite, but mine too. Here are my Top 10 Favorite P&P Movie Quotes below...

P&P Movie Script

By -

I was looking through old threads over at IMDB a while back and I found a link to the P&P 2005 movie script ... from an awesome JA/P&P fanfiction related site called, Mrs. Darcy's Story Site . I've read the entire script from this site. It seemed accurate with deleted scenes included! (though there were spelling errors on some of the lines...just a lil' typo here and there)... Btw, the webmistress at Mrs. Darcy's site has added her comments to the script comparing this draft with what was actually released on film , which I thought was quite interesting (especially the deleted scenes from the movie ). It was a lot of fun to read. I thought I would keep the link and post it here (a lil' excerpt here) for those of you might be interested in reading this or have been looking for the P&P movie script/transcript online. Here are a few deleted scenes that I found interesting (wish they were shown in the movie or in the dvd special features):
