A nasty woman, I think you should try is, Jess.


Akiva Goldsman is attached as producer to:

Rob Liefeld's Avengelyne

Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six - adapted by Josh Appelbaum & Andre Nemec, who have been working on the Beverly Hills Cop reboot at Paramount (Which is different from the tv series that went nowhere)

Those Ologies books your mom likes - Dragonology, Monsterology, Vampireology, etc, they are set up as text books but iirc some have vague plots hinted through them.

I read Spawn last year and it was a lot more hokey and dumb than I remember. It's funny thinking back to the HBO series because the show was way darker and graphic than anything in the 80 issues I read. If half the movie was made up of the two detectives doing something barely related to Spawn, it would be a faithful adaptation of the comic.

Nah. Spawn is frustrating primarily because the premise is actually really, really, really loving good, and yet out of the three media it's been done in, the comic is god loving awful, the movie is okayish but fails to live up to that premise, and the HBO series is unironically loving Rad with no caveats, but obscure as poo poo and left hanging on a semi-cliffhanger.

e: the Dreamcast game is dope too, but it doesn't really have a story, it's basically Power Stone 2.5 with guns and Spawn characters.

The only spawn reboot should be an Anime like Afro Samurai. Get some of that VHS era gore and grit for good measure.

What? No way. The movie is barely coherent and heavily relies on Cog's terrible VO to hold it together. They spent all the money on Sheen, White's Deadpool makeup, the cape and Clown/Violator. It's bare bones and what is there puts too much weight on poo poo that's forgettable or causes the audience to check out.

Malbolgia looks great if they were trying to make a Ren Hoek on an acid trip model. 90s hair fibres without anti-aliasing :waycool:

By now, the comic is so leaden with its mythology it makes the X-Men chronology look like a Golden Reader by comparison.

Guy goes Awol with rad suit is a great premise that's been done better by XO Manowar.

LORD OF BOOTY posted:

I wouldn't say the comics are outright serious horror- they're more along the lines of Hobo with a Shotgun or early Sam Raimi tonally.
The Mask done in the style of Braindead would be something.

Honestly, if the effects were better and it didn't have Cogliostro's VO (and if Spawn wasn't sort of a running nerd joke, to address the elephant in the room), it would probably be much better-remembered. Like I said, it's okayish; I'd put it in the same sphere of quality as, like, Timecop or Eraser.

The thing about Cog's VO is, almost nothing he says about the mythology actually ends up being remotely relevant to the movie, beyond that 10-second little end bit with Spawn in Hell. Literally all of the exposition that matters to the film's story is delivered by Clown to Spawn, and much more bluntly and concisely, at that. More than anything, I think that's what made audiences check out- if people are going to see a Spawn movie, they wanna see dead black Freddy Krueger gently caress some poo poo up with capes and chains, they don't give a drat about ~the war between Heaven and Hell for the souls of humanity~ or whatever the gently caress. That's actually specifically why I said in my pitch "don't touch that poo poo, keep it small scale and focused on Al."

Hobo with a Shotgun is seriously like 75% of the way to being a straight adaptation of the Mask comic.

Okay Hollywood, here's the movie you've been waiting for. 3 friends get really loving high, and they spend the night in a kiddy pool. Mainly because they're too paranoid to leave the safety of the pool. Except one of them rolls over and is too lazy to not drown. So he drowns, and his two friends are stuck in this kiddy pool with the body of their dead friend. Now they have to wait out the night and manage not to drown in this terrifying thriller.

Also a side plot of a quote unquote friend who uses this opportunity to rob them. He gets high and drowns in the pool as well.

Todd McFarlane on a new Spawn movie:

“So I’m going, I’m not selling it but if you want to see the rough draft, I’ll send it to you. But just so everybody knows, I write, produce, direct, non-negotiable.”

McFarlane uses one... unconventional negotiation tactic

quote:

can take advantage of people’s bladders. I’ve got a strong bladder. It’s true! Here’s how you take advantage of that. You get these punk-rear end lawyers and three-piece-suit guys, and they come to my office, and it wasn’t an accident that where I used to draw, the sun would be straight this way [he shoots his hands toward me] and it would go straight past me, right to where I’d sit them. In the sun. Now, if you’ve never been to Phoenix in the summer? [His offices are located near Phoenix.] It is excruciatingly hot. Especially if you’re wearing a three-piece suit. So what I do is, I sit them strategically in a place where the sun is coming right through the window and they’re getting hotter and hotter. I’ve actually turned up the heat in my room, ’cause I’m like a cockroach — I’ve adapted. But these guys haven’t.

So what do you do to somebody who’s hot? You give ’em water and you be a good host! You pour water into them. But you make sure that, before you started the conversation, you say, “None of us leaves this room until this is settled.” And I can sit there for hours. And I can start to see when they start to move and wiggle in their seat. And I go, It’s happening. It’s percolating. And by some point, you can just see them go, “Unnghh! Fine! You can have that! You can have that point! Fine, you get that point! That’s fine! Are we done? Is this over? Yeah, good! Where’s your bathroom!” I’ve had that conversation plenty of times. The next question is, “Fine, where’s your bathroom?” So you gave it to me because you’ve got a weak bladder? [Shakes head.] Not mine.
