Forum Overview :: Peter Molyneux's The Movies :: Fucking Transmet.

[quote name="Damocles"][quote name="foogla"][quote name="TheVacillator"]I'd like to see Sandman or some variation of that, into a movie. Hopefully in the style of Dark City. I wonder who'd play Death though.[/quote] Yes.[/quote] Sandman will not happen, not as a movie. Gaiman doesn't think a movie could tell the Sandman story properly, and he's right. The Death graphic novels, on the other hand, are either happening or likely to happen. Gaiman wants to direct them himself, though, and he's been working on something else prior to it to get his directing chops in. (He'll likely succeed... the man can do anything, and usually better than those that specialize in it.) I have no idea who would play Death, although I can maybe see Rachel Weisz working. She's got the hair, the perkiness, and can the weird shadow behind the eyes that implies that she knows more than she's letting on. [quote name="foogla"][quote name="TheVacillator"]Though, as much as I'd like to see Spider Jerusalem fucking everyone up on the big screen, I have no idea how that as a movie will turn out.[/quote] Yes.[/quote] I wish. America needs Spider Jerusalem, and needs him very, very badly. Sadly, a series about a crusading (yet cynical, in the tradition of all bitter idealists) journalist taking down the president and speaking Truth to the masses that flies in the face of comforting patriotic right-wing bullshit is <i>precisely</i> what nobody in power in the U.S. would ever allow. It'd have to be British or something, because Ellis would becomes public enemy #1 the nanosecond it's released.[/quote]
