(80's, 70's and the not to distant future). What's this guy's beef with the present day? ;) Just an interesting (or maybe not so interesting) note - all three of Kelly’s films are period pieces.

But I'm not ready to give up on Richard Kelly just yet, there's potential, but knowing the premiise, story just not 100% confident it's one for the big screen. I did like the twilight zone ep, it was one of the newer eps done in the 90's I think. i am a huge fan of Donnie Darko and was greatly disappointed with Southland Tales, I expected to like it and was bored by it all.

And to say the film lost money is an understatement of epic proportions. The film was made for an estimated $18+ million and only grossed $276,000 at the box office. For the record, I actually enjoyed the movie on a few levels, so I'm not here to bash it, just relaying the facts. xetra: Southland Tales currently has a 34% tomatometer rating on Rotten Tomatoes, which is far from even “good”.

Its been ages since I have seen it and dont really remember the ending... they wind up pushing the button and I think some kid dies and it effects the family but I forget how. Richard Kellys take on this should be quite interesting and can't wait to see it. My problem lies with the cast... James Marsden and Cameron Diaz I think will bring an unwanted vibe to the film.. parring them together almost makes this look like a romatic comedy.. I dunno I havent seen the film yet so maybe they will be good but does anyone agree with me? speaking of twilight zone wasnt this a story featured on the program or perhaps the outer limits cause I do very much remember seeing it as a kid and it was one of the better stories.

Basically he doesn't want to press the button, and she does. That is the conflict. In the short story they get $50 for pressing the button. Times have changed. It's really more of a Twilight Zone kind of thing that is being stretched out into a movie. I has a dumb ending, but I'm not going to spoil it here. Can't see how this is going to be good. When I read the story, I was like "that's it!" at the end. I read this short story a while ago.

Kelly's approach to storytelling is just way too convoluted. Hopefully he can reign it in with this one because it looks like a great project.
