Yeah, it has some moments of greatness but they're too few and far between for my taste. The mind reels at the idea of FITZCARRALDO 2060 but so much s**t gets announced and thrown out there these days that never happens (like, sadly, HOUSE OF RE-ANIMATOR) that I'm not holding my breath.

I hope it is, even if it is set in the future (which sort of makes it sound fake) but Daniel Day Lewis playing Kinski's part sound great and Peter Weir is a great director. I'm about 50/50 if this a real project but I would be glad if it's made. Wait is this for real?

My point was this: the original post says "The Hollywood Reporter reports...". So whether the Reporter is holding the story or not (which I'll admit is plausible), how could the /film post cite an article that doesn't yet exist as proof of the story's veracity? I rest my case. You don't need to live in LA to spot bullsh@t when you see it. @Cinema

Thanks for the condescension pal. My point was this: the original post says “The Hollywood Reporter reports…”. So whether the Reporter is holding the story or not (which I’ll admit is plausible), how could the /film post cite an article that doesn’t yet exist as proof of the story’s veracity?

The Hollywood Reporter is probably holding the article until later today. It's only bizarre for those who lack the vision of Weir and DDL.
