this is be far the most excited I've been for a new project since Hairspray lol

I like that he isn't the only star on this movie (Ray Liotta and Kim Basinger don't count) and that it was has talented people on its crew. Everything won't be on Zac's shoulders like CstC, TLO and others of his upcoming projects.

Jack isn't the most interesting character ever but it is a very good role for Zac nonetheless. I hope Tobey will be his brother... if it is Matthew, this will be ironic.

me too. i knew it had to happen sometime :D

i kind of hope he can still do the bahrani project too, but idk. that was a nice thing to hear about too, that he was even getting offers for films like that, with such an interesting and good director.

Yeah that sounded interesting. Idk I just don't want him to be doing basically the same movie over and over and most of the things we've heard him attached to are very similar. idk how it'll pan out.
