It will probably be as much of a bore as Malick's other films!
I liked very much "The thin red line". I consider it a very honest plea against war.

Blasphemy!

Well, what do you expect from someone who hates animals?
I don't hate animals at all.

And I certainly don't want to get into the Jewish/Arab argument and how everyone and their mothers around the world (including the shameless Muslim nations) bow down to the United States. And I certainly don't want to mention the shameless way the U.S. supports Israel. Vomit,vomit and more vomit!!!

Yeah but Terrence Malick is involved so that completely negates Mel Gibson's presence.

It actually sounds a lot like 2001...

I think I'll pass. I really don't need to see Mel Gibson in the story of how the Earth was created. I'm surprised he'd have anything to do with a project that promoted evolution as it sounds like this one does.

Anyone know about this?
Malick's next project is reported to be The Tree of Life, a $150 million project he has been working on since the late 1970s. Originally titled Q, the film will begin with the evolution of the Earth, eventually telling a story in prehistoric times. The film will be financed by Mel Gibson, starring Gibson and Colin Farrell. Richard Taylor of WETA is quoted as describing the opening of the film: "There is this creature, a Minotaur, sleeping in the water, and he dreams about the evolution of the universe, seeing the earth change from a sea of magma to the earliest vegetation, to the dinosaurs, and then to man. It would be this metaphorical story that moves you through time.'"
