"Big Fish 2: Revenge of the Giant". But then you realized that the Giant wouldn't get revenge, so instead, he would just "return". Then next summer it would be "Big Fish 2: Return of the Giant" starring Jason Lee as the Giant(only to be replaced by Colin Farell because the Weinsteins think he is more bankable), the little man from Fox's "The Littlest Groom" as the circus ringmaster, you as the old lady in the crooked house, and Mewes as the son. Sounds like a blockbuster written all over it. Too bad it isn't true. But congrats on the Hornet.

: So there I was, sitting in bed, waiting ‘til midnight to break with the big news (you might
: have even noticed I hit a few posts below, while I was killing time). And as the witching hour
: rolled ‘round, I cracked my knuckles and prepared to divulge the info I’ve been sitting on for
: roughly three months now…
: ...only to discover my DSL connection had suddenly went dead.
: Ah, the best laid plans of mice and Moves.
: Oh well. Cat’s out of the bag. Yes – I’ve been handed Miramax’s biggest movie to date
: (unless you count “Gangs of New York”, which was rumored to cost a hundred million or
: something). It may not be big news to some here (or to any folks who aren’t into comic
: book movies). But it sure as shit's big news to me. Big, wonderful news. I still can’t believe
: it…
: But not as much as I can’t believe my DSL connection quit on me the one time I really, really
: wanted to post something.
: Thanks for your patience over these past few weeks. Remind me never to do a Big News
: thing again.
: Now...
: Any questions?
