I hope someone makes The Dark Tower in my lifetime, but I'd hate to see it done a la Beowulf.

You must like Atom Egoyan, huh, brain? Do you have a favourite?

Its currently set to be directed by JJ Abrams! Had you not already gotten that news? Eek

I really would like to see them start production/casting soon, but I am content waiting because I think they absolutely need to take their time with this project, considering how huge and epic of an undertaking it would be if they want to do it right.

....and I didn't know about Abrams. I guess Peter Jackson can't do everything.

I suppose Timothy Olyphant would be typecast as Roland after his turn in Hitman? Too bad.

anyone heard of Elephant Dreams? It's an open source short animation film from the netherlands (i think..I know it's from somewhere in europe.) I have to say the idea of making a film via 'open source' is like...too cool!

Oh yeah! As a huge Blender user and general shareware junkie, I have been fascinated with Elephant Dream for a long time.
