1st in 2005! ;)

meh..... i've been engaged in rampant fanboi ism for several years now with 
talk of a hellblazer movie (now coming out as Constantine, starring our 
foremost shakespearian actor, keanu reeves, the joy the joy {the sarcasm, 
the sarcasm}).... due to the rampant mutilation of the ideas from over an 
over 200+ comic book vs the strange abortive thing they are going to put on 
screen, talk all you want about a movie and hope they never make one.

the perfect situation would be that they pay steve an absolutely ridiculous 
amount of money for the movie rights and he keeps final creative say over 
casting and script.  while i wouldn't expect him to write the script without 
help (afaik he hasn't done movie scripts, but i don't stalk him so who 
knows), having the writer not let them do things like give morrolan a 
mustache or cast julie strain as aliera would be... helpful.
