I'm just not sure how a book that is 90% inner monologue would work as a film, it would be cool if they did it as a silent film just watching him do his thing while we can only hear him breathing most of the time (a bit like Gravity I guess), but I'm not sure if Hollywood is brave enough for that.
It's not though, it's mostly logs. I imagine they'll film it as video logs and live-action 3rd person with him talking to himself.Veeayt said:
This. Ridley going downhill for the last what zillion years, and Matt Damon just can't play so jovial a character.
The first line of the thread made me think, 'ooo, sounds intriguing.' Then I read Scott was the director...interest wanes...then the actors name...interest plummets. I went through all stages of anticipation in the pace of 20 seconds.

Done already, All Is Lost with Robert Redford. They overdo it a bit too much because I'm pretty sure in these sort of scenarios people do talk to themselves quite a bit.Lefty said:
