Xander ,'Bring On The Night'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I guess I was hoping they'd go in a more outre (e.g. 2001) direction and Boyle & co. went with the more convential/commercial ending, but then tried to turn it into an outre ending anyway with the style.
Granted, it's arguable that 2001 turns into a monster movie for part of the second half (with Hal as the monster).
I love the rhythm and visuals of the start of Sunshine. I may only ever watch the first 2/3 again.
Also, Chris Evans.

#5 pisses me off the mostest.
Interesting list, DJ. Isn't an adaptation of On the Road coming out soon, though?
I think I heard that, and there's mention of it in the comments. Mostly I'm pissed at GP for The Secret History and whoever for Confederacy of Dunces.
No lie, every once in a while I will get a real bug up my skirt about TSH and will go in search of news, and when it once again turns out it's not being made I am annoyed.
It was such a great book, it is surprising it hasn't gotten made into a film yet.
It looks, from this link, like Gwynnie owns it and wants to play the lead (Camille, I think) and wants her brother to direct.
I'm most pissed about The Alienist.
Too gruesome? Really? Compared to what? Sense and Sensibility?

#2 made me double-check the date on the article. Nope, it's new. Odd use of tense.

A Princess of Mars is being made by Andrew Stanton of Pixar. I think under the title, John Carter of Mars, though.
