Skeletor joins the magic swirling @$$ of Cameron Diaz in Richard Kelly's THE BOX!!!

Published at:  Oct 12, 2007 2:56:47 AM CDT

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I read an early draft of THE BOX and I can tell you that Frank Langella will rule in this movie. His role is that of the mysteriously evil fucker that delivers this box to Cameron Diaz's character and her character. If he appears as he does in the early version I read, then it'll be a hell of an entrance.

This story is dark, but by far the most mainstream thing Richard Kelly has done. I can't wait to see him pull of this nasty little tale. What about you?

    Cameron Diaz and stiffler as the leads?

    by redfive!

    Langella's a great actor but cameron diaz and the soon to be announced stiffler are terrable casting choices.Just like Southland I think ill wait to rent this.

    P.S.Its funny how nobody relizes that Kelly owe's his entire Career to The Twilight Zone.

    In my experience boxes are usually empty

    Or maybe with a little cheese stuck to the top. And one time, pepperoni! What a day that was!

    Eli Roth

    by quint

    He brainstormed with Richard Kelly, I think, but I don't think he ever wrote it with him. Kelly wrote it and Roth was going to direct, but then Roth dropped out so Kelly's directing. I think that's how it went down, but at any rate, Eli's been off this project for a while now.

    You should've seen Langella as Dracula back in the late 1970s. The best since Christopher Lee - he owned that role.

    The Box looks interesting, by the way. Can Richard Kelly do a lucid, linear, understandable storyline???

    Who gets him mixed up with Christopher Lee and Vice Versa?

    Cameron Diaz IS Skeltor

    Seriously, that was her nickname growing up. And her ass is nonexistant.

    Langella MADE masters of the universe

    by rocklobster800

    Ill defend that film based entirely on his performance.....sure everything else in it was awful (except the design of castle greyskull) but Langella was a fucking GREAT Skeletor!

    I'm surprised

    by jonquixote

    That this story is being adapted into a feature-length. Will the 'twist' be preserved 'til the end, or will it kick off the bulk of the movie? It's a cool story and it made for a cool TWILIGHT ZONE episode, but even that 15 minute adaptation felt like it had a lot of excess.

    I Defend The Entire 'Masters Of The Universe' Film

    by skoobyx

    Quite watchable. Right up there with the original live action 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' as an embarrassingly pre-teen movie that I will secretly watch if I catch it on tv.

    I Agree! "And her character"...huh again?

    by colier rannd

    This will make a great movie I'm sure if Richard Kelly can ever get one actually out to theaters or video again. At this rate....
