Neil Gaiman does the story and Dave McKean does the cool, twisted visuals. (the same team that did Sandman)

Trailer here and video clips plus an alternate trailer :here.

Your mention of Neil Gaiman instantly got my interest there... I'll check it out.

Interesting. Looks very different from anything I've seen so far.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Movie. Only playing in the US right now. Seems really interesting, though I'll probably wait for it to hit theatres rather than ruining the experience by watching it on a dirty 17" monitor.

Heh, I'll be lucky if it gets any big screen time at all here...

Incidentally, does anyone else think that Good Omens would make an unspeakably cool film? Alan Rickman as Crowley... :cool:

If I had my digital camera, I'd take a picture of myself (re)reading Good Omens with this thread open, because that's what I was just doing.

As for MirrorMask...well, I hope they have plans to release it overseas, even if its just in arthouse cinemas. From what I know, it's just been recently released even in the US, so probably in a few months it will be making the rounds over the pond.

So they finally got around to releasing the movie? I've seen the book about making it a few times in bookstores, but I hadn't realized the release was yet.

EDIT: Hmm.... Very limited release, and I'm not quite willing to walk ten miles to see it. I guess Neverwhere will have to tide me over unless they decide to go for a wider release.

I agree but seeing as how Diskworld was almost universally ignored when converted to cartoon I doubt many are willing to try it.

That might be because the cartoon sucked like Daikatana.
