The Internet sucks. If you don’t respond to everything you’re viewed as being behind. You try to ignore shit, but everyone reports, “hey, remember XYZ project already reported, well now it’s triple confirmed!” And somehow that gets away as a headline, blech. It’s traffic baiting.
So yeah, remember about two weeks ago when we noticed that the European media had reported that Martin Scorsese’ was eyeing an adaptation of Brian Selznick’s best-selling children’s historical fiction book “The Invention Of Hugo Cabret” set in 1930s Paris (a project Paramount bought the rights to for him in 2007)?
Yeah? Well, its’ true… again. It is his next project (or he hopes it to be). John Logan, who wrote”The Aviator,” wrote the adaptation. The end.
Maybe he'll pull a Wes Anderson and redeem himself for a decade-long string of disappointing movies. Oddly optimistic about this one, even though this is the man who directed Nicholas Cage's worst film.
Really, Alex? Nicholas Cage's worst film? Bangkok Dangerous? Ghost Rider? And is that really all you have to say about Scorsese? Out of Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, The Last Waltz, you choose to mention Bringing Out The Dead…
I almost envy someone who thinks Bringing Out The Dead is Nicolas Cage's worst movie. Almost.
Alex is cool because he's not down with Scorsese.
