Constantine

[fajrdrako]

I saw a trailer for Constantine when I saw Troy and I got all excited. John Constantine is one of my favourite comic book characters and in the hope that they will do justice to him (is it possible?) I am eagerly anticipating this movie.

But it's a whole year away.

That's just... cruel.

I suggest giving up hope now. The script is unrecognizeable and so is the character.

You've seen the script? Sigh - that is bad news. And imagining Keanu Reeves as John Constantine is... well, a stretch. A biig stretch. Maybe I should just do like with Catwoman: enjoy the comics and pretend the movie doesn't exist?

What really breaks my heart is not just that Constantine is going to be a bad movie (I can sense it coming -- ow, my soul). It's also that, by making it, it absolutely means that we'll never get a GOOD movie. Which is the real kick in the head. :(

I wish I could find some way to hope that there will be a good Constnatine movie... at least in our lifetimes... but it doesn't seem likely, does it?

Why are so many movies that are based on good comics, utterly crappy? They shouldn't be.
