someone needs to kill franco before he can get his hands on blood meridian. also the only directors fit to make cormac mccarthy movies are the coen bros

Frostwerks posted:franco is a loving fool if he wants to make blood meridian into a film. the mpaa would tear him a new rear end in a top hat. he needs to take his loving hands off of good poo poo and stick to shoving them up his rear end in a top hat. Make it an HBO mini if you want to do it. Goddamn. hes a more hosed up version of uwe boll, instead of ruining goofy video games hes ruining brilliant literature

Mel Mudkiper posted:The real problem with adapting Blood Meridian as a movie or miniseries is more about making sure the violence is extreme without being spectacle. The whole power of BP is how these incredible acts of violence and cruelty are normalized by the indifference of those who perpetrate them. To make the movie work, the director would have to frame the violence in such a way that it was unflinching and graphic, but also disturbing and unpleasant enough that people would not immediately rush to make GIFs of it like Game of Thrones or Walking Dead. It would have to simultaneously be normalized and unimaginable. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_9KNP9I6YA
