      This is long overdue. I just want them to be sure and make it as hard sci-fi as possible.

    2. I wonder if they’ll include elements from the sequels. The book is great but>! it doesn’t have a lot of high drama, and the mysteries of the ship are mostly left unanswered. !<

      Why doesn’t he just collab with Arthur C. Clarke like Kubrick did and write something original?

    4. visually, it all hangs on just a few seconds of action.

      If I DONT get kicked in the chest by acrophobia at the critical moment it’s a fizzer.

    5. I so very much would’ve loved to see Ed Harris play the captain, but I guess he’s too old for that now 😕

      Also, when the lights are on, the chorus of conquest of paradise by vangelis is a must. An absolute must !!!

    6. Fuck yeah. Villeneuve is by far the best sci-fi director around now and this is one of my favorite books, I can’t wait to see this on the big screen.

      I’m very excited, but the novel is not really a conventional story and has thin characters. By comparison Dune is probably *easier* to adapt, in some ways. The temptation to right a completely different story with the same elements will be strong for hollywood. So I’m not too optimistic.
