According to an interview he did with comingsoon.net, DJ Caruso, who is set to Direct the feature film, is placing the final touches on the script of what could be... THE BEST COMIC TO FILM ADAPTATION EVER!!! Hopefully...
Caruso is still currently tweeking the Brian K. Vaughn adaptation, and he had this to say, "I think it's one of those that the source material is fantastic stuff, it's great, but it's a tough one to lick into getting into a screenplay. I've tried to feel like it's a trilogy of movies and I think everyone sort of agrees, but at the same time, just getting the first movie right and getting the right beats and knowing what to put in, it's been really tough. You have great minds like David Goyer and you've got Carl Ellsworth and you've got Brian K. Vaughn, and I'm working with them to just kind of crack it and get it down. And we're almost there. I know it's a slow process, but I think eventually we'll get it. We're going to get it and we'll get it right, but we had a pretty good breakthrough a couple weeks ago in the final act, and hopefully we'll get there."
I usually don't pray religiously for movies to do well, but this is really important to me. I am the ultimate Y: The Last Man Fan! I'm pissed off on the inside because I have this suspicion that Caruso is going to try and go for the mass appeal(preppy high school f*cks) of a PG-13 rating. If that happens, I will go to Mars like Dr. Manhattan...
I will say this only once, this is R-rated and Mature material... Leave it that way Caruso... Or else I will shop-lift Eagle Eye from Wal-Mart and burn it a hundred times and sell them on Ebay as "Eagle Eye Coasters"! R Rating damn it! I know you want LaBeouf, but make him actually act like he had to in A Guide To Recongnizing Your Saints... Thought provoking and with maturity... Foul language, violence, and Lesbian scenes intact... Or else...
