The Road by Cormac McCarthy (of No Country and Blood Meridian [coming soon!!] fame) is one of my favorite books. I was pumped about the movie because, hey, it's a movie of something I like and I am not so pretentious that I whine whenever I hear something is being made into a film.
But this trailer. Oh doctor, does it look awful. They made it look like a damn action flick -- which it is most certainly not. And, (lemme hit ya with a SPOILER ALERT) Charlize Theron plays the mother in the film, who fucking kills herself in a flashback scene and has, at most, two pages devoted to talking about her. But here, she looks like she is there all the time, nagging and bitching. (END OF SPOILERS). Stupid Hollywood.
I am holding out hope that this is good. Cormac has gotta go 2-2 in the adaptation department.
