Ahoy, squirts! Quint here... I've been awake for nearly 40 hours straight now. I started out waking up in Austin 5:45am CST Friday... and traveled to Prague (2 flights and a 6 hour layover at JFK)... where I got off the plane, got into my hotel, showered and left for the set of HOSTEL 2... stayed for the entire day... now I'm back in my hotel and am about to black out before I get to spend tomorrow exploring the city.

But first a little info I received during my set visit regarding Eli Roth's upcoming Stephen King adaptation, CELL. It was announced he was directing it a while ago, but now a deal has been made to bring on the person (persons, in this case) who are adapting the novel (one that I believe is King's most fun book, not counting his Dark Tower work, in a decade). As the old knight would say... he has chosen... wisely...

Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski will be adapting Stephen King's CELL.

They recently rewrote Matt Greenberg's script for the Stephen King adaptation 1408, starring John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson. Word around the campfire is that script is absolutely fantastic. They also wrote the brilliant script for THE PEOPLE VS. LARRY FLYNT and MAN ON THE MOON... let's forget they wrote AGENT CODY BANKS and focus on their successes! I mean, they wrote ED WOOD for god's sake!

Can't wait to see what they do with this book. I hope they make it their own, but still honor the original material. It hasn't been alive long enough to become a Stephen King classic, but like I said above, I think it's one of this most fun and entertaining books in a long while. I'm going to slip into a minor coma now. In the mean time, what do you folks think of this development?
