I'm very excited about this.

I've toyed with the idea of screenwriting, and most of those idea revolve around updating classic noir stories lol.

I'm actually working on something, that's why I haven't been on a lot.. My idea is more political thriller, with a little sci-fi thrown in..

I am intrigued...I love the original Strangers and this one seems like it will be modernized enough that it will be at once familiar but still fresh.
Plus Fincher rarely makes a misstep and Batfleck is my dude.

I'm with that…Sounds hard to miss with the cast, story, and director. I think Fincher is as close to Hitchcock as we have, I mentioned that in my 'Gone Girl' review.

This could easily be great, if they find the right person to play off Affleck.

This thread is proving another theory of mine when it comes to the trend breh: You get the right team on it, people are much more open and willing to watch

My mind went immediately to Christoph Waltz.

i'm sure finch will have a way more twisted take on it

Gone Girl was already a horrible attempt at Hitchcock

No thanks

 

[StraxStrax]

You know damn well he isn't interested in a comedy. If there's no seediness involved, he don't want it

Ok

Jadens Dad is a serial rapist
