Fassbender to star in Cuchulain movie!

Not sure if I'd prefer this or a Sláine film, let's see...a fight for a prize bull or a fight against Slough Feg and his alies?

Wasn't a great film though. Eric Shanower's Age of Bronze is a much better retelling of the Trojan War.

No arguments there!  It's my second-favourite ongoing comic (after the obvious).

And agreed about comics vs. film too.  The decisions to squeeze the Trojan War into about a week, and then have Hector kill Menelaus, and let Helen and Paris escape, do seem to suggest that the producers of Troy would have preferred to be 'adapting' a different story entirely.

... Which would be a pity as I'd imagine something from Pat would be great.

Can't agree more with this. I've always thought that Pat's ideas would easily lend themselves to the big screen.
Nemesis, Slaine, ABC Warriors, Flesh, Defoe, even Finn would all make totally arsom movie franchises.
Even American Reaper, which reads like an elaborate storyboard anyway!

Is there any chance this could be a Slaine movie? I'm just remembering that announcement from a month or so back, that revealed 2 (I think it was 2) more 2000 AD movies were being developed besides Dredd. We've had the story about Grant Morrison writing a Rogue script - could this be the other one?

No.

If it were a Slaine movie I think we'd know...
