    There's always lots of talk about a Necroscope movie. Opinions are divided - as they should be [img]smile.gif[/img] With a subject so close to the hearts of many, it's always a tough call.

    With the recent re-release of Psychomech from Tor, what would be your thoughts on a film version of this fine book ?

    Would Psychomech be too 'weird' for Hollywood and the unsuspecting public? Who would you cast as Corporal Richard Allan Garrison? or Willy Koenig, or Thomas Schroeder?

    Your thoughts, please

    There's only one thing I'd say about a Psychomech movie - that's that I'd have to play Phillip Stone.

    Not only because his first name's spelt properly, but because I want to be the person who facilitates the three or four day working week! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

    Aside from that - for an actioner like it would have to be I nominate John McTiernan for director, has to be, no question!

    Catch ya soon!

    Hmm.. you know, this might work for a movie. But as far as actors to play the parts... unknowns would be better.

    Good idea though Spook!

    Pybob,

    I totally disagree with your choice of director. I think it would have to be either Tim Burton or Sam Raimi.

    Later,

    TOps

    How about the whole done by computer graphics as in "final fantasy" the movie. that would be really smart, then its a case of who you get to do the voices rather than act the parts.

    think it would be much better, darker and better FX?

    Ooh, great subject Spooks...

    I don't like her, but I can kinda imagine Nicole Kidman as Vicki Maler
