'Torso' set to star... Matt Damon?!

[Posh]

MTV’s movie blog interviewed David Fincher (“Zodiac,” “Seven”) and squeezed some information out of the director on his upcoming projects. Fincher said he has a planned film version adapting Brian Michael Bendis’ “Torso” in the works. Fincher said he has a great script and that Matt Damon has been talked to about starring in the film.

Sigh.

[Bunnylingus]

Matt Damons actually not as bad as I thought he was, he was really good in the Departed.

Ben Affleck would've been worse.

[Posh]

Ben Affleck isn't allowed to make any more comic book movies. By law.

[GreatKingRat]

I think Damon's street cred went up after the Bourne films, so he could be no bad.

[Bunnylingus]

Oh aye, he wasnt too bad in them either.

I dont think he'll be great, but he'll probably be a lot better than folk will expect him to be.

[Posh]

This is just going to be 'Se7en' part two. Bleurgh.

Posh, do you like any film versions of comics?

Do you like any comic versions of films?

[Posh]

I love the 'Spider-Man' films. Even the third one which everyone else hates but I think is hilarious.

I love 'The Hulk'.

'Hellboy' is amazing.

'Sin City'.

The first 'Superman' and 'Superman Returns'.

The first two 'X-Men' flicks.

'Batman', 'Returns' and 'Begins'.

'Ghost World'.

'American Splendour'.

'V For Vendetta'.

'Blade 2'.

'A History of Violence'.

So yeah, I do!

I like the X-Men comics my pal Gordon has, but none of my mates are really into comics, aside from Dave, so Ive never had a chance to read them, and its not something Id spend my disposable income on.

Fair enough, just I seem to read an awful lot of despair from you when I see threads on comics being made into films.

I most likely will never get over 'Daredevil'.

Films are shite unless Sergio Leone made 'em
