Thanks for the news. I had not heard of it. I predict it will make back at least five times the money they put into it. Posts: 13123 | Registered: Feb 2002

His whole bit with wearing sunglasses at every possible photo op is starting to kind of bug me to the point that I'm afraid he is beginning to slide off into wanker land. :/

Storm, I once asked him why he wore the sunglasses and leather jacket to every signing and photo op, and his response was, "So I don't need to figure out what to wear." Posts: 37449 | Registered: May 1999

Not that I don't like Neil Gaiman, because I do, but I have this odd feeling that he was just blowing you off, Tom. I don't know. In some respects, putting the stuff on every day so he doesn't have to decide what to wear is pretty wankery, too.

In reference to the earlier part of this thread, I am fairly certain than Gaiman has lived in wanker-land for quite a while now. I'm also certain that is the reason his stories are so good.
quote:The music's not actually music from the film, and the trailer's just moving images really, with no sense of the story (or even that there is a story), but it's the first moving anything that's been seen on the web so far. The next trailer will be longer, and feel more like the film. Still, it's Dave McKean's images, and they move. It's more of a taster than a trailer...

Not many trailers use music from the films. Common exceptions would probably be sequels and such. Music (especially the sweeping orchestral productions) take forever so they are usually not done in time for trailers.

That's like megaweird. I could've sworn I've seen a completely and entirely different trailer for Mirrormask which in feel was somewhat like a combination of the Orlando and TheCell trailers; scenes not of and yet as if from a surreal masque ball brightly lit to highlight the dark decadence.
That or my imagination/dreamlife is better than Gaiman's; which I find to be unlikely.
