His first visit after his first tour isn't bad- I mean things have changed but not so wildly that he can't wrap his head around it. The book spends very little time actually on Earth simply because the main character is so awkwardly out of place there. I'm worried they're going to spend a ton of time on Earth rather than follow the book accordingly. I mean I don't remember how he explained the homosexuality in the book but it didn't sound that contrived for some reason- even if it's hard to believe. But I could see the movie being really bright with lots of neon glowing junk all over the place and immoral stuff on display to sort of make everyone go ew that's the future. When I pictured it in my head Earth was very dismal and everything was muted and simple. My only concern is if they go off the deep end with the set design on Earth. After all, blowjobs and heterosexual anal sex are not means of procreation, either. The sexual drives for the majority must have been much the same as in ours, with roughly 1:10 being homosexual, but since the practice of it was endorsed by society, the majority of the population engaged in it.Īs a heterosexual myself, I am not comfortable with the idea of partaking in or watching male-on-male sex (female-on-female is entirely fine, though ), but I don't think it's down to any inherent aversion. But prison sexuality seems more rapey and power-play than homosexual romance.I should have expressed my point more clearly: if children were taught that homosexual relations are the norm, and they would see homosexuals all around them, they would probably not develop any aversion to such a thing - although I don't presume to know whether or not they would still be attracted to the opposite sex. I know plenty of gay guys who find the thought of engaging in heterosexual intercourse to be as repellent. I was taught that as a child and I still find the prospect of actually doing it repellent. You know, if he focuses on the drama and makes i more of a winter release instead of a summer action.this could be pretty good. Scott recently acquired the rights to the book and is now looking for a writer to adapt it for the big screen. One aspect of the new society which jars with returning military types is the pre-eminence of homosexuality, which has been encouraged by the government to help relax overcrowding. Haldeman's novel centres on a soldier who returns home from battling aliens for a few months in space to find his home planet has advanced many years into the future, and is unrecognisable. "It's a science-fiction epic, a bit of The Odyssey by way of Blade Runner, built upon a brilliant, disorienting premise." "I first pursued The Forever War 25 years ago, and the book has only grown more timely and relevant since," Scott told the trade bible. Variety reports this morning that The Forever War will be the film-maker's next project after Nottingham. It now appears the tome in question may not have been Brave New World, although Scott still seems certain to film Huxley's novel at some stage. That will definitely be what I do next after Nottingham, the Robin Hood film (with Russell Crowe)." At the time he was quoted as saying: "I waited for a book for 20 years and I have got the book. Scott confirmed in October that he would be bring Aldous Huxley's dystopian classic to cinemas with Leonardo DiCaprio in the main role. Not content with hatching a plan to bring Brave New World to the big screen, the British director of Alien and Blade Runner is to adapt Joe Haldeman's 1974 novel The Forever War. You wait 25 years for a new Ridley Scott science fiction film then two come along at once. The Alien director has revealed that he will move onto an adaptation of Joe Haldeman's 1974 science fiction novel after finishing Nottingham.
