Hypothetical Adaptations

    I think Coen Bros' Transmet and Tarantino's Black Lagoon would be the most successful.

    Here's an obious one: Tim Burton's Sandman, with a soundtrack by Yo Jeong-Wook (the guy who does the music for most of Park Chan-Wook's movies).

    EDIT: Ooh, got some more.

    Wong Kar Wai's Sanctuary, with an eclectic score of his choosing. Alternatively, we need to hook up WKW with Murakami, since they'd probably make brilliant things together.

    I really want to see a movie adaptation of DMZ (the comic), but I don't know who would be up to directing it. Soundtrack by local NYC musicians and rappers hand-picked at Silent Barn (a popular venue/art space in Brooklyn) by Kanye West.

    EDIT2: Guy Ritchie's DMZ? Eh? Eh?
    I think visually, Tim Burton would be great on Sandman, but there's no way he'd be able to handle the complexity of the story. I'd love to see David Fincher's take on Sandman instead.

    Wong Kar Wai on Sanctuary would be pretty awesome.

    Tim Burton's does a James Bond movie. I would camp out to see that.

    But Johnny Depp would make an awful Bond, Danny Elfman's score wouldn't be at all appropriate, and Helena Bonham Carter would suck as a bond girl.

    Johnny Depp would be the bond girl duhhhh.

    I think it's time for a gay bond, whatdaya say?
  • VigaViga
    Edgar Wright's Fullmetal Alchemist with a soundtrack by The Aquabats.

    That would be weird.

    Daniel Craig strapped naked to a bottomless chair while a man slams his balls with a rope? A gay Bond would be a step into safer territory.

    Also, have you seen the "Daniel gets out of the water" scene? That is grade A fan service.

    Edgar Wright's Scott Pilgrim with a major soundtrack contribution by Metric— OH WAIT, MY DREAM ALREADY CAME TRUE.

    /flits away



    Okay, starting again with something that hasn't actually happened yet (and going for my next favourite director after Edgar Wright for variety's sake):

    Neveldine/Taylor's Revolutionary Girl Utena with a soundtrack by Caravan Palace.

    .............I think such a movie would probably explode in a puff of logic.

    I forgot about that line too. Bisexual Bond is already here.

    That sounds like SUCH an awesome movie. Also, Squirrel Girl doesn't get enough love.

    Dogs in the Vineyard, directed by Darren Aronofsky, with soundtrack by Dave Carter and Tracy Grammer.
