Catfish and Dragon flies..oh my!

This is really just so I can put up sexy pics of Adrian…he does make my thighs quiver, so he does.
Fresh from her directing success Sarah Polley and everybody’s favourite crooked nosed hunk of love, Adrien Brody are to star together in “Splice”, a sci-fi thriller being prepped by Vincenzo Natali (he of no particular fame).

The screenplay has been written by Natali, Antoinette Terry Bryant and Doug Taylor. Who are these people you may ask? Well I dug deep into the wonderful Internet Movie Database and came up with ziltch, nada, nothing….which makes me think this is not going to be something that will knock “Alien” and “Aliens” off the sci-fi thriller throne.

The plot is basically about a pair of young scientists who become "superstars" as a result of their experiments into DNA splicing, which creates a number of new fantastical creatures (kind of like the “Wuzzles” but better animation and hopefully better thought out that George Lucas’s “Star Wars” creatures. I mean come on man. They were so cut-n-paste-animals-out-of-a-nature-encyclopedia there was no thought. Who on earth came up with this or even THIS).
Unmindful of the ethics of their work, the pair start to introduce human DNA into their experiments.

Get me in line now!!! This sounds like a cult crapster piece in the making. I men can you imagine the endless horrors. Combining man with animal? We would have such things as Snail Boy and his trail of evil, or Ms. Goldfish who forgets you after the first date.

Who knows….this could be interesting. God knows Adrian Brody needs a big hit in a bad way. Sarah Polley I am just guessing needs a pay check in order to fund her next beautiful and intelligent film, but Adrian…what happened??? Sure he had “King Kong”, but that was all about the Kong…he could have been anyone. Here is hoping “Manolete” and “The Brothers Bloom” help him out…if not he may need to get himself gene spliced. (Note to Adrian should you read this…if you fall on hard times, I have a bed with your name on it! Look me up!)

Hmmm, have not found anything on IMDB about this film…has it been canned already? Was actually kind of looking forward to seeing these creatures

Vincenzo Natali did the very......Canadian 'Cube', for what it's worth.
