The larger sizes are the nicer looking in my opinion. But the smaller trade paperback of ROP fixes the Derrek Russell error.

Finished the audiobook last week. Loved it. What a fantastic story. 5/5
Spoiler
Dorian and Blue are such fantastic, complex characters. Probably the first time I've read anything from the EU with characters as conflicting as those in the films. Thought Alex White nailed it. I really, really hated Dorian - such an evil, scheming bastard - like taking Burke and mixing him with Hannibal Lecter. Found his death particularly satisfying and also annoying as I wanted him to not have any satisfaction of fulfilment

I must admit that TCF grows on me with each reading. Maybe one day I'll call it the best Alien novel ever. But not now...

Christopher Waltz could also play a good Dorian...

Nah, I've always found Waltz too campy (although maybe that's just the roles I've seen him in).

Cillian Murphy is who I pictured while reading it. ;)

I imagined him as Patrick Bateman.

He's been the bad guy in every alien novel I've ever read.

Never knew others thought the same until I joined up here.

This would be my first choice.  Christopher Waltz maybe a distant second.

A casting choice we agree upon.

Corporal Hicks

I'm also throwing my hat in on Cillian Murphy. Fantastic choice.

I always had images of Christian Bales' Patrick Bateman from American Psycho whilst listening to the audiobook :D

I think when I read it I was imagining someone like Oded Fehr in Deuce Bigalow.

He is very Patrick Batemen -esque.
