Stardust
I try not to get to enthusiastic about movies that haven't even gone onto production yet (unless it's a sequel or popular comic adaptation or something like that), but this new project titled "Stardust" has really caught my attention.
Take a look at this cast list. Robert DeNiro, Michelle Pfeiffer, Claire Danes, Brit Charlie Cox and Sienna Miller. Wow. And the synopsis looks interesting too. From the good folks over at CHUD:
The fantasy tale revolves around a man who ventures into a magical realm to retrieve a fallen star for his beloved. Unfortunately along the way he must contend with evil witches, goblins, pirates and belligerent trees. But c'mon, let's be realistic -- for Sienna Miller, you'd probably do it too.I haven't found anything as far as a shooting or release dates are concerned, but I'm pretty interested in this one. Keep your eyes open for Stardust news. Man... look at that picture... WHAT THE HELL WAS JUDE LAW THINKING!?!?!?!

If this is based on the Neil Gaiman (Watchmen, American Gods, etc) book of the same name, it could be quite good!

People like Jude Law and Billy Bob Thornton just make me wonder...WHY! heh...Miller and Jolie are smart, fucking gorgeous and generally damn amazing. And Miller can dance...oh she can dance...

Comic book? Wasn't this a prose novel first?

It was a novel first. I own a signed book as proof.

So she's hot. I've never seen her in anything. Can she act? Hot chicks in movies are a dime a dozen.

This definitely sounds like it's based on Gaiman, and forgive me if I'm less than enthusiastic.... The potential to mess this up is overwhelming.

stardust would count as being a comic book adaptation. originally written by neil gaiman and illustrated by charles vess -- worth reading before they butcher it into hollywood movie format.
