Life Of Pi

this was a big "huh?"

Life of Pi (2009)

considering it's one of my favorite books of all time, and doesn't really seem to fit the "movie" potential category, I can say I'm apprehensive.

Plus I've read talks about M. Knight shamalamanamanana directing, which would be the cherry on the top of a shit sundae

Well, the book has a 'twist-ending' of sorts. Wouldn't be surprised if Mr. Shyalaman feels drawn to it to sell it off as his own.

Rumors of a movie started quite a while ago. I still love the book, but apparently that author and that director might be drawn together for other reasons...

Yeah, that Brazilian can go fuck himself:

No, it isn't. Give me a fucking break. Then there should only ever have been a single book written about castaways, because everything after that was ripping off the original IP. You fucking idiot.
