My brother did too, though he says it was a little different from Pratchett's book. Did you see him show up in the movie? My brother said he randomly shows up as an old man in some places.

He seemed to appear in the beginning and at the end, don't think i saw him other then that. Btw, I think David Jones fit perfectly for the role of Rincewind.

Master Posts: 177 Group: Pirate Member #2,226 Joined: April 21, 2008	Yeah i've heard that complaint a few times, but you can't really determine his age from the books. As for Twoflower there were many who saw him as an asian-looking man, though it only came from one statement in the book. Didn't really think about his age, so imo he fit in there atleast.

Otaku Extraordinaire Posts: 734 Group: Staff Member Member #2,069 Joined: April 12, 2008	Well, I only read Interesting Times and The Last Continent with Rincewind and Twoflower in them, and in those books it makes Twoflower out to be an old short man with glasses and always wearing a tourist outfit. (lol, What I Did on my Holiday made Rincewind's life ruined again)

I can finally get back to "Lords and Ladies" by Terry Pratchett. I just realized how horrible that name would be at school. "Pratchett the prat! Hahahahaha" lol.
