Probably see it next weekend.

I am curious to see how they handle it. I never really saw it as a story that could be made into a movie.

I bet Billy Beane is simply insufferable now that Brad Pitt has played him in a movie.

I too wondered how this would be a movie, but I love the book. From the reviews I have heard it focuses a lot more on Billy Beane and his life more than the stats side. But I heard it's a good baseball movie. So I was told to watch it for that and not for a good representation of the book. Looking forward to seeing it though.
