Sam Mendes presents... Preacher: The Movie

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

This will look awesome on my DVD shelf next the View Askew version and the 4 HBO Season boxed sets.

Oh, wait... ;)

Hmm. Think i would have preferred the HBO series in terms of format.

No idea how this will be fitted into a movie.

Probably by cutting out everything that made it special, I'd imagine.

Off the top of my head, things we definitely WON'T see will be Arseface, Jesse's family and the Saint of Killers backstory.

An R-Rated, Action version of Dogma, like the article hints.
