That actually looks pretty good. I was definitely getting a Minority Report vibe with the Seekers or whatever they're called.

The book is trash, but that looks mildly entertaining.

Iron Giant.

The book is amazing. Is everyone on rm dead inside?

The trailer is misleading in relation to the book except parts but I'm excited for this.

The book was a lot of fun but badly written. I'm totally on board for the film though.

Yea, it's not a literary masterpiece, but it's a good and entertaining story. I'm with you, completely on board for this. It's just a trailer, but there were some very cool visuals there and it felt exciting.

This looks awesome! I had no idea that pop culture touchstones like the DeLorean and Freddy Krueger were part of this world. This looks waaaay more fun than Minority Report.

Joey. Lads.

Please dont rob yourselves of a brilliant experience.

Please read this book before you see the film.

The film will not touch it no matter the director

Based on the title, I'm guessing that player one needs to get his shit together.

Such a short book but packed with so much stuff. It's a great read and a quick one. Give it a spin.

I emailed it to you.
