marbury movies


So, I mentioned a few days ago that The Marbury Lens was optioned for a movie.

So... yeah... I am mentioning it again.

Last night, I went out to dinner with the producers. It was nice. I wore my lucky Amoeba Records T-shirt. Not that I believe in luck, although I do believe in Amoeba.

Anyway, I don't have to be totally honest. This is, after all, a blog. But I will say, in complete and unwarranted honesty, say that a Marbury movie will be pretty cool.

And I have a pretty strong sense that this is going to be made real.

That's really cool Andrew. I'm guessing by the delight in your voice they plan to make things the way you want.

Congrats again!

*does that mean you can hire someone else to run your blog and websites? I've heard that is what all the famous authors do.

Marissa and I will keep my fingers crossed. We both loved THE MARBURY LENS--in a deliciously, seriously disturbed, sleep with the lights on sort of way. :D

Your writing is very visual, so I can completely see how a movie would unroll!

And I have an Amoeba T-Shirt too! Mine is red.

Interesting.

I am looking forward to the inside scoop. I have a feeling it won't be like when Riordan sold his soul and allowed The Lighting Thief to be made into a piece of shit movie. Because in no way, shape, or form do you remind me of him. I am not even sure where I am going with this.

I can see it, already. It's got a Donnie Darko quality to it. Congratulations!

The whole time I was reading it, it just felt like a movie. An actual movie would be amazing (as long as they don't mess it up...)
