I know there was another thread discussing this movie but I searchbarred (and googled) and couldn't find it, so I'll make another one. If it still exists...damn.

SEMI-SPOILER:
My only qualm with the trailer is that they seemingly give away the ending.

Otherwise, I think this will be sick. The cast looks awesome. I never get excited about movies but I this is piquing my interest.

I remember reading the book years and years ago and being so fascinated and disturbed... I was a little kid haha. I definitely want to read the book again, the trailer makes it look rather cheesy and "Hollywood cliche" but we'll see I guess

It was kind of stupid that the trailer just gave away the ending.

I wonder how the fantasy game he plays will be portrayed. Also I heard they took his brother out of movie. I'm on the fence about this.

I really hope the same based on the fact that Gavin Hood directed it. I was worried about it messing with what I imagine everything to look like, but I realize I've read the book enough times to retain my own perception.

Peter is listed in the cast on IMDB. Maybe they just downplay his involvement and influence.

.

Unless its 3 hours long, probably a skim of the awesome depth that the book leads you into.

I always thought it was grey, but I don't think the book actually says what color.. and I also envisioned it being smaller and square.

its gonna need to be 3+ hours and rated R to live up to the brutality of the book


didnt see anything about the tablets/the game they play, that was a huge part of the book so hopefully its in there


im anticipating a pg13 shitshow of special effects
