Oct. 3rd, 2004 03:09 pmI'm wandering around KFCC at the moment and stumbled on all these nifty tidbits. I fully admit, not that it's probably all that shocking with my various movie spam entries ... I have a weakness for movies that blow things up, yet have plentiful pretty. Asian cinema has been pushing these factors of late.
( A live-action anime? )
In French cinema miscellany and it's Halloween-ish ... Christopher Gans ("Brotherhood of the Wolf") is currently at the helm of the SILENT HILL big screen adaptation (here's a bit of backstory for those unfamiliar with the game). If he does it right, that's several dozen piss-your-pants moments waiting to happen. Of course, with the propensity of video-games >> film... the movie will probably suck something fierce. Although I did sort of like "Brotherhood of the Wolf"... but then Monica Belucci (aka, one of my favorite girl-crushes) is in that. The movie has the makings of a good movie adaptation. There is some depth & mystery there beyond just blasting zombie heads, bouncing on koopas or whatnot. Will they do anything with it? Eh. I suppose we'll see. Just as long as Gans doesn't try to make it "Resident Evil", I'll probably see it.
