Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

Let's get this started... I haven't been this excited about a film since The Passion of The Christ... which will coincidentally have been released 10yrs ago upon this films' release. Mel jokes aside, my understanding is that Aronofsky isn't a Christian but has a great love and appreciation for the story. Good enough for me.... I don't think a 100+million budget would've been approved if he intended to offend believers. The casting of Crowe is also key, as he's well-liked amongst Christians due to his more "traditional" films (Gladiator, Cinderella Man, etc) I hope it works...

All I keep thinking is that Steve Carrell disaster... I'm sure this will be better but we'll see.

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

Any word on whether there will be dinos?

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

^ That would just make the story unbelievable...

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

You know, that Dutch guy just finished his (apparently) actual-size replica of the ark. Maybe they can use that.

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

I have read that there will be "watchers".

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

Aronofsky tweets with photos from the set about what he is filming. It's interesting to follow.

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

I'll have to add him to my feed.

Gotta say, as much as I was anti-Twitter I've really come to enjoy the project updates it provides depending on who you follow.

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

I hope this film deals with how Noah kept the two termites, woodpeckers and beavers from sinking the Ark during the fourty days they were on it.

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

I'm not hugely religious or anything but Aronofsky really hasn't made a bad film if you ask me so I'll see this regardless of not being overly interested in the subject matter.

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

There are a lot of good film-realted accounts to follow on Twitter.

People who think Twitter is about 'what someone had for breakfast' really don't understand it at all.

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

For sure. My twitter is mostly compromised of filmmakers and film studios..and film related news.

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

Who cares what filmmakers had for breakfast?! :rolleyes:

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

I was one of those people until recently. Now I'm hooked on finding who to follow because the updates are typically genuinely interesting.

Like Snake, most of the people I follow are industry-based in some way. Actually, if he rambles on like he does here, it might be worth it to add Snake...

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

I'm in the same boat...

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

Without knowing anything about this movie, I'm picturing it as being structured like Deep Impact, Know1ng and The Day After Tomorrow, with the floodwaters coming right at the very end.

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

How can Snake post on Twitter? They only allow 140 characters and every thing he posts has 52 ellipses.

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

That still leaves enough room for at least 22 uses of "fuck" and/or "rape".

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

The problem with director accounts, actor accounts, etc, is you often get a lot of other stuff like politics, personal stuff, etc, but then also some early film news that's cool interspersed in there. So look those up one at a time and make a call.

Here's a few worth following, there are more of course.

This.

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

Also there should be lot's of sex & violence because God flooded the world for reason. I wonder who they are going to use for the voice of God?

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

Morgan Freeman, duh.

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

Each ellipsis is three characters.

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

Not necessarily. You can represent an ellipse as a single Unicode character.

E.g. …

Re: Noah (2014) D: Aronofsky S: Crowe
 

Hey, you said 52... don't expect me to do all the math here.
