stardust
peep the official website and HD-trailer of the movie Stardust [via]
... now, i'll be waiting for someone to mashup the Stardust shooting star
sequence with the arrival of Transformers crashlanding on Earth (*heh*)
pretty much a big-step, since my last post on location recce, yeh? *heh*
admittedly, altho i had purchased the Neil Gaiman/Charles Vess comicbook (prestige) series (as i did nearly every Gaiman product after Vertigo's Sandman) years ago, i do not recollect reading them ... and from the trailer, admittedly too it seemed like yet another LOTR/HarryPotter/Narnia-visual-vibe, of sprawling lush landscapes and of fantasy fairytales-hollywoodized (not that tis a "bad thing", mind :p) ... but Michelle Pfeiffer looked spectacularly radiant and i "break" for Claire Danes anytime, so ... maybe what i'll do is try and catch the movie and not read the comicbook first, least it affects my celluloid-trip, as it did with Frank Miller's 300 ... *heh*
"Stardust," based on the best-selling graphic novel by Neil Gaiman and Charles Vess, takes audiences on an adventure that begins in a village in England and ends up in places that exist in an imaginary world. A young man named Tristan (Charlie Cox) tries to win the heart of Victoria (Sienna Miller), the beautiful but cold object of his desire, by going on a quest to retrieve a fallen star. His journey takes him to a mysterious and forbidden land beyond the walls of his village. On his odyssey, Tristan finds the star, which has transformed into a striking girl named Yvaine (Claire Danes)." [via]
