Re: Stranger (Bad Robot)
That was uh...terrible. I can hardly not wait to find out even less about this project.
Sounds like Christopher Plummer on the voiceover. |
Re: Stranger (Bad Robot)
Another bad Bad Robot project that I can miss.

I like Fringe but mostly because he had little to do with it. I also liked the first two seasons of Alias before it went to shit. Cloverfield, Super 8, Lost and Revolution are pretty shitty too. And his Star Trek films are travesties and a crime against cinema.

Re: Stranger (Bad Robot)
I want Bad Robot to produce a sequel to Cloverfield.
Even if Matt Reeves doesn't direct it. :sad: |
Re: Stranger (Bad Robot)
Awesome teaser!!!

Re: Stranger (Bad Robot)
Regardless of what people think about J.J. Abrams' films, I do love that in this day and age of the Internet knowing everything about the production months and years before its release that they go out of their way to keep as much under wraps as possible!

Re: Stranger (Bad Robot)

I agree, but I also think he uses it to his disadvantage, like keeping Khan under wraps for so long it became a non-event once revealed. And for all the mystery surrounding Super 8, that film fell apart in the third act. This approach only works well if the product delivers, too.

Re: Stranger (Bad Robot)
^ most of the Khan stuff was them agressivly denying it when a rumor would go out, & even going as far as demanding IMDb take down the "Khan" credit after it had opened in the UK but not here

Re: Stranger (Bad Robot)
So is this going to be a spiritual sequel to Brother From Another Planet?
Because that would be awesome! |

Re: Stranger (Bad Robot)
Last month, J.J. Abrams released a very cool, very mysterious teaser called “Stranger” for a new project he was working on. He didn’t say what project it was, so much excitement and speculation ensued. Today, he released the second half of the trailer to EW. This time, he’s being way more forthcoming, and the project is … a truly unique, fascinating book called S. conceived by Abrams and written by Doug Dorst, to be published by Little, Brown on Oct. 29. I got a brief look at the novel, and it’s a bear to describe, but here goes: S. is basically about the relationship between a grad student named Eric and a college senior named Jennifer. They trade notes in the margins of a (fictional) 1949 novel by a mysterious author named V.M. Straka. S. contains the novel within the novel; copious handwritten notes between Jennifer and Eric (“a conversation that plunges them into the unknown,” according to the book jacket); and dozens of pieces of ephemera between the pages like newspaper clippings and a napkin with a map drawn on it. (S. will come shrink-wrapped so none of this extra material falls out.) It looks like a dense but often funny mystery — and exactly the kind of novel you’d hope for from Abrams. “I could not be more excited for people to get their hands on this book,” Abrams tells EW. “It is difficult to describe because while it is a compelling mystery and love story, it is also much more than that. The work that everyone has done on S. is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Frankly, I’m amazed it was even possible to do this project at all.” Here’s the second half of the trailer … <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/OuZfpt8nxtk?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> |

Really intrigued by this so far. But surprised/disappointed that it's a book.
