i've been out of the del toro loop since not getting green lighted for at the mountains of madness. this sounds great!
I am still pissed about the loss of At the Mountains of Madness. Hopefully this will make up for that in some small way. I hope they don't disappoint us.
I have high expectations!!! I am rather glad they canceled Mountains of Madness. I just do not think you can make a good movie out of this book.
You can't go wrong with Guillermo!!!! HELL BOY will be my childrens "star wars" and Pans Labrynth" their "Shawshank" Totally off subject. I'm going to bust out "legend" tim currey as the devil. Best make up ever. Most impressive horns ever done!!!!
^I like your sentiment, HHR, and fully agreed (esp. on Pan’s). GDT said recently that his ATMoM project is all but dead; he basically implied that he is giving up the dream b/c of Prometheus. He feels that the plot of Prometheus is so closely similar that ATMoM would likely seem to the studio suits and the general public to be a retread riding Prometheus’ coattails. I was really looking forward to seeing GDT get a big budget to take on Lovecraft, but maybe it’s just not to be (unless he decides on another story). VERY excited for Pacific Rim!
I saw the GDT quote on Wired "It’s really, it’s a very, very beautiful poem to giant monsters." Can't wait!
holly shit I'm gonna get to go see movies next summer too? I'm not complaining but when did hollywood pull it's head out of it's ass and decide original quality films could be produced again? aside from harry potter movies before this summer I don't think I've seen a new movie in a theatre for a decade
Even if does turn out to be a letdown, I can say that I will definitely go see it opening week. I can't even remember the last movie I saw in theaters before Cabin in the Woods a couple of months ago. But wait... Charlie Day is in it? Comic relief? Can he play a serious role?
i was excited about this until i saw that the writer also wrote 'clash of the titans'. ...should i still be excited?
how come there's been no talk here about the new godzilla movie that was announced at the pacific rim panel?
I enjoyed "Monsters" and really hope Gareth Edwards can pull this off. Anyone at the SDCC see the trailers for these?
