>EXCLUSIVE: Scott McGehee & David Siegel have made a deal at Warner Bros to write and direct a new version of Lord Of The Flies, based on the iconic William Golding novel. They plan to be faithful to the novel with one major twist: the young students stranded on a remote island who descend into a savage social order will be girls.
I remember when this was first announced and people were bitching for a bit then we all started brainstorming on how it could actually be good and show how vicious girls could be. The movie will probably be shit but at least I had fun talking about what could have been
Juan Gomez
No. They already ruined the story by Americanising it in the 70s. The black and white version is kino. This will be more rubbish.
Mason Thompson
>ignoring how everyone got salty over fembusters
Yes! This pleases me!
Gabriel Cooper
I'm actually looking forward to it. Feminists are already bitching about how the book is about "Toxic masculinity" or whatever. They're just mad that in order to please fans of the book, women won't be portrayed as flawless Mary Sues.
Ayden Carter
This
My buddy asked his gf what she thought and she said its dumb cause the women would work together. We all know of course this is bullshit and the movie will undoubtedly NOT portray this outcome. Feminists will be booty bothered
Colton Bell
t. soyboy
Jayden Campbell
god damn this is the perfect project for Millie.
Hudson Richardson
You're making me look forward to it, user.
Bentley Ramirez
How old will they make the girls will probably determine Sup Forums's reaction.
Austin Miller
i'll never get a modern adaptation that acknowledges Jack and Ralph's homolust for each other. feels bad.
Matthew Hill
Growing up with two sisters proved to me, without authority, women will tear each other apart. Notorious feminist cunt Roxanne Gay is already boycotting it.
Asher Hughes
how can you make a movie about women falling to tribalism, petty differences, rancor, envy and fear, and tearing each other apart AND make it happen in more than 20 minutes?
Hunter Gutierrez
I’d like to see her play the one who turns evil and kills piggy. She would also be good as the viewpoint character who stays sane.
Dafne could be the sadistic psycho kid who doesnt talk and throws rocks at the others.
Kayden Myers
>Warner Brothers >kino
Lincoln Long
If they remain faithful aside from the genderswap like they say they will, there won't be roles for hispanics.
Gavin Phillips
>bunch of lolis turning savage Muh motherfuckin dick. Thank you, pedowood.
Isaac Carter
Do you think they could get away with calling a girl Piggy. Or will they have to change it to stop people calling it fatphobic or something?
Leo Collins
Cast Millie and Sophie so their fans can see them battle to the death.
Nathan Sullivan
The more I think about it, the more I think this will kick ass.
James Lewis
Dafne’s parents are both European. Her mother is a swarthy Spaniard. Dafne has an English accent too, it would be tragic if this film Americanizes the schoolgirls.
Julian Edwards
>missing the entire point of the book
Alexander Edwards
Sounds realistic. Someone post that picture of that gameshow where the women couldn't work together at all in the wild
Jordan Ortiz
fag
Nolan Garcia
I was about agree with anti Warner, but this reminded me.
Connor Bennett
They'll still find a way to make it all men's fault.
Eli Sullivan
If I remember right the kids were being evacuated due to WW3 when their plane crashed. So that'll be the patriarchy's fault.
Owen Morgan
>tons of underage, barely dressed girls
Sup Forums will explode
Ryan Perez
a female lord of the flies maked as much sense to me as a male vagina monologues
Ayden Carter
I'm ok with this as long as it's fappable..
Jonathan Rivera
I want to do a remake of The Blue Lagoon where instead of two kids the same age it's a girl and an older man, and they learn to let go of their hang-ups and inhibitions. I would also cast myself in this movie.
Kevin Taylor
You know it'll all be 20 year olds playing kids.
Joseph Jackson
I will be so mad if the females kvetching over this get the film canceled
Wyatt Peterson
>current year >implying women don't set their differences apart and work together
Andrew Howard
LOOKS LIKE CUNNYS BACK ON THE MEN, YOU BOYS
Asher Torres
>back on the men Kek.
Liam Harris
/r/ that pic about a show in a desert island with men and women separated and how women couldn't help themselves alone
Bentley Morgan
>an actually clever cunnypost You are a rare breed of pedo
Ian Mitchell
>Girls get marooned >80% of them die in the first day from jealous cat-fighting or suicide at the thought of having to survive >The rest of them starve, sunbathe or dehydrate themselves to death over the course of a couple weeks >The end
Alternatively, they build a Wakanda-like perfect country because girl power.
David Reyes
>criminal escaping by boat comes across massive pile of dead lolis >has to try and hide them in a series of wacky hijinks so he doesn't get done for more than just being a bank robber
Carson Williams
or >criminal escaping by boat comes across massive pile of alive lolis >fucks them
Oliver Carter
Comment of the goddamn year
Luis Powell
>They plan to be faithful to the novel- Yeah okay pal, sure.
At the very least, the paranoia, disloyalty, and tribalism of the story will be justified.
Adam Jackson
Do you think porn studios will make a porn parody of this?
Mason Gutierrez
oh man I hope they pump lots into viral marketing and baiting social media this could be keks for months >box office numbers arrive >a JUSTcut on the head of every dirty loli
Jose Johnson
They need a lesbian sideplot punctuated by violence. Whichever characters are depicted by Sophia Lillis and Millie should be involved
Xavier Taylor
Sounds hot
James Murphy
hurr hurr
Daniel Campbell
>women building their civilization kek
Julian Clark
Is it confirmed Sophia and Millie are in this, or just speculation?
Kevin Gonzalez
An all female LotF is a good idea. Young girls treat each other far more cruelly than your boys, since their environment is produces less consequences for their behavior.
They'll fuck it up by using a soft-ball script and flavor-of-the-month kid actors, though.
Aiden Peterson
>how it could actually be good and show how vicious girls could be That's basically just Mean Girls though. Or Heathers.
Easton Clark
It’s just speculation. There are few details out about this right now. If I was making a film right now, I’d get Millie for sure, she is huge at the moment.
Evan Richardson
Can we get female-starred "M for Murder" and "400 Blows" next thing?
Ayden Brown
To be honest it makes sense for a premise like this to be adapted with a female cast.
Nicholas Perry
Settle down, Virgin I’m sure your porg plushies were worth every penny
Brody Gray
It would sell like hot cakes
Nathaniel Butler
CAST IT
Grayson Barnes
>all these anons hoping for things like the tribalism being justified because little girls are so vicious I hope you guys aren't genuinely getting your hopes up.
Ayden Morales
>RLM faggot >relevant opinion on anything
Grayson Cruz
They already made that with Cracks.
Aiden Brown
>all female so its going to be 30 minutes of petty quarrels and hair pulling until they all die from starvation, this might be good
Jack Nguyen
Millie, Dafne Keen, Sophia Lillis, Sadie Sink. Did I forget anyone?
Julian Ortiz
Malina Weisman
Tyler Lewis
Who will be Piggy?
Connor Nelson
This could either go very very wrong if they shit all over the themes of the source material and make it girl power nonsense where they work together and persevere, or very very right if that's a bait-and-switch and the girls are no better than the boys were.
Josiah Collins
>implying they won't change the story to make it pro-feminist There'll probably be one boy left and he'll be Jack.
If it's true to the book, it WILL be accused of sexism and misogyny. Bladerunner 2049 was. Because that's what happens when you have female antagonists
Ryan Powell
RLM is the Pickle Rick of film discussion You know it’s true
Sebastian Hill
Will you watch it in the cinema by yourself Sup Forums? >in a raincoat
Luis Perry
Both version are terrible because of the horrible child acting.
Jayden Sullivan
Which starlet is thicc?
Nathan Ortiz
First movie out in 63 27 years later the next movie is out 90 27 years later, it's this 2017. Huh.
Nathaniel Jackson
...
Jose Russell
>rather than the actual plot of the book they will instead set aside their differences to defend themselves against a group of male sailors intent on raping them
Blake Harris
As much as I think it's pointless to make it all female when we have plenty of good young male actors, this could actually be kino
Think about it
Ralph >Millie Bobby Brown
Jack >sadie Sink >???
Simon >sophia Lillis
Piggy >fat one
Roger >dafne keen
Maybe switch sofia and sadie? Don't know who could play the villain
Adam Watson
>"And another thing,” Jackie said. >“Should we have a rule that whoever has the conch gets to speak? You know, so no one gets interrupted?”
>“But who,” ventured Simone, “is here to interrupt us?”
>The girls looked around. It was true: there was no one.
Wew Lass
Jacob Edwards
They should only cast britbongs.
David Lewis
Here it is
Leo Sanchez
I'd like to see Millie as Jack desu. She'd be a great bully. Dafne is the obvious choice for Roger, as is Sophia for Simon. Hopefully WB has deep pockets to be able to afford the entire A list of actresses this age.
Evan James
This, I actually don't mind it. Ghostbusters was retarded and unnecessary, but this could be an interesting twist on the story. The book is GOAT as fuck, the part where the one kid is hallucinating that Satan is talking to him through the dead pig's head is spooky.
Matthew Nguyen
It's time to float.
Evan Scott
You think this guy might have an agenda when writing this?
Tyler Peterson
roastie getting toastie
Noah Morgan
Sophia would play the alpha chick who leads the hunters and jobs Piggy
Hunter Harris
>all girls instead of boys >instead of the boys hunting for boar, using the conch to take turns in speaking and organizing for gathering and keeping the fire lit, the girls will sit at the beach, bitch at each other and give each other the silent treatment until some of them starve to death >then a ship shows up on the horizon >the women think theyre saved >Once the ship gets closer, the women can read the name on the side of the ship "The Patriarchy" >Shocked and defiant, the woman put their differences aside to fight off this menace
William Jackson
>ship full of horny sailors shows up
Anthony Thompson
havin an agenda dose not change what hapened.
also i hope they will cast many cutes for the movie.
Ian Moore
I HAVE THE CONCH
Mason Clark
But we don't know what happened aside from what "Dr_Caveman" told us.
What would think about an article written by "Mother_Goddess" about how men totally fucked everything up ?
Logan Johnson
>Jack Every other canon Ginger character in fiction gets BLACKED. But Jack is the villain so I don't know.
Joseph Gray
>gonna be my most-anticipated movie >going to have to tone down my excitement around friends
Justin Thompson
SUCKS TO YOUR ASSSSS MAARRRRR
Luis Davis
If by agenda you mean a desire to reveal the truth (hidden for social/political reasons) then yes,he has an agenda. It's a very common one,especially with scientists and philosophers.
