So, I read Stardust over the weekend, and I’m quite surprised to find one common tidbit with Good Omens.
Tristran and his French:

And while we’re at it, Yvaine likes to call Tristran “idiot” sometimes.
And in the end, guess who sheltered in an awning an realized they both love each other???
Them:

But instead of vavooming under said awning, they preferred to kiss in the rain. Therefore, I conclude, @neil-gaiman can write romance 🥰
Hope to see some parallels in Good Omens Season 3. Looking forward to a certain aardvark and chinchilla to kiss in the rain.

I’m reading Stardust by Neil Gaiman right now. I just found out the part where Aziraphale spoke in French about an aunt, a gardener, and a pen is a direct reference from this line in Stardust.
Or was this just a coincidence, @neil-gaiman?
Lots of love. X

I’m reading Stardust right now, and I find it hilarious that both Tristran and Aziraphale know only enough French to say one very specific thing:

A digital portrait of one Tristan Thorn.
Tumblr media
I painted Tristan (or Tristran, depending on your perspective) because Stardust is both my favourite book and my favourite film of all time.
I swear I thought I was through with the concept of love, at least that of the romantic variety, but the way I feel about this story and these characters has genuinely made me feel like I might just believe again.
Aaaaaaaahhhh. Neil Gaiman, you legend. Thank you. Sincerely. Stardust is magic.

honestly the funniest part of the stardust movie is that they changed the protagontist's name by one letter and it was a vast improvement

Reading Stardust. Never wished I could jump into a story and punch someone as much as I wish I could punch Tristran. "I'm trusting on your honor as a star not to run away!" Her honour doesn't depend on pleasing her captor. Idiot. "I'm the most miserable person who ever lived!" Said in the tails of thinking about how the star must be cold and lonely and her broken leg must be hurting like her back from horse riding bareback. "If my hand wasn't burned you wouldn't be alive!" It also saved your life so you would've done it anyway. Also, it doesn't impress that you were just as willing to save her as you were to kidnap her. Let Victoria thank you 🖕. Also 70% of the way in and the main couple has not had any friendly interactions that weren't forced by Tristran, mostly to convince himself that he's still a good guy even though he's got Yvaine kidnapped.

I will never get over the fact that the Stardust movie got away with changing the name of the main character

Balor: Ah, so you're also in a relationship with a huge age gap?
Azik: Yeah... I'm, like, three thousand years older than her. And you? How many years you have between you two?
Balor: ...
Balor: Four thousand :D

Hey Neil, hope you're having a wonderful day!
"Stardust" has always been one of my all-time favourite films, and I finally got my hands on the book and read it! I loved it very much, although I do have a question...
While reading the bonus content at the back of the edition I bought, I came across this little snippet at the end of the preface:
"The other story set in the world of Stardust that I still intend to tell explains how and why Tristran Thorn went to Hell in a hot-air balloon."
Naturally, I am intrigued. Was this a joke? Is anything going to come of it? Did it end up becoming an abandoned project? Was it teasing a Good Omens crossover, as funny as that would be?
👀
It's not a joke. Actually Charles Vess did an illustration for it. One day I need to write it.
