I believe that Steampunk is more than just brass and watchparts. It's finding a way to combine the past and the future in an aesthetic pleasing yet still punkish way. It's living a life that looks old-fashioned, yet speaks to the future. It's taking the detritus of our modern technological society and remaking it into useful things. Join me as I search for items for my house that combine the scientific romanticism of the Victorians with our real present and imagined future.

I loved the costumes and set :)
I loved the movie AND the book - which was quite different. :)
The movie was great visually, but I loved the novel by Neil Gaimon...the audio version that Neil himself performed. He is an AWESOME storyteller!
I really enjoyed this movie. I've watched it probably 6 times. I love the sets, costumes, and of course you gotta love those airship pirates.
Really liked this! and pretty much love anything Neil Gaiman. But I bought the DVD for the airship pirates. ^_^
And can you ever see Robert DiNiro the same again?? He was fantastic!!
Oi, cap'n, we always knew you was a poofta! Great movie.
I'm totally in love with this movie - although I HATE that dress Michelle Pfeiffer is wearing. I think this is one of my favourite De Niro and Ricky Gervais roles ever.
Have you seen the French film Vidocq?
Very steampunk and awesome.

:D
Completely forgot about this movie until you reminded me. Now I want to rewatch it!
This is my favorite movie of all time. I'm the kinda gal that only ever watches a movie once. And that's it. Yet I have watched Stardust five times, even bought the DVD for myself and have read the book twice- LOVE it. Glad I discovered your blog- I'm loving the steampunk jewelry look and was researching THAT and it led me here:)
Great movie, great book.
But the airship pirates are lightning catchers that sell the lightnings to the shop ;-).
