Re: Circus theme - I kind of thought THE IMAGINARIUM OF DOCTOR PARNASSUS was going to be a bigger hit here, and it only appeared in the Oscars once... I'd read circus. I'd read circus up and down and backwards.
I was just thinking about sub-genres I loved when I was a wee one... And I realized almost all of my favorite books were stranded-teen-surviving-in-the-wild books. HATCHET, JULIE OF THE WOLVES, ISLAND OF THE BLUE DOLPHINS, etc. Will these make a huge comeback? Doubt it. Unless there's werewolves in it.
...I also fantasized about running away and living in the boundary waters with wild animals, though, so maybe it was just me.
