The Red Star To Become A Movie

I'm sure most of you have never heard of "The Red Star". It's a serise of graphic novels (or "comics" to most people) that re-invisions a Soviet Union in a world of technology and magic. It's just one of the most creative and gripping comics I've ever read.

Universal is now set to adapt The Red Star into a movie and all I can think of is that it's going to be on a MASSIVE scale. I'm not kidding here folks. The Red Star would be something along the lines of a "Lord of the Rings" set in a sci-fi genre. It's that huge (imagination wise).

You can learn more about "The Red Star" from their official site here.

This movie has the potential in not being successful for one reason; its in Russia! I know the Cold War is over etc, but can you imagine Hollywood warming up to this franchise to the scale of LOTR?? Or am I being extremely pessimistic?
