Dragons and Machine Guns and Brothels, OH MY!

FROM Entertainment Weekly Online...

Amanda Seyfried is in talks to star in Zack Snyder's upcoming all-girl ass-kicker Sucker Punch. Sucker Punch, which has been in the works for about two years, sounds like kind of a mindfrak. It follows Babydoll (Seyfried) as her stepfather sends her to a mental institution to be lobotomized. "While there, she imagines an alternative reality to hide her from the pain, and in that world, she begins planning her escape, needing to steal five objects to help get her out before she is deflowered by a vile man," according to the Hollywood Reporter. "Snyder...has described the fantasy world as 'Alice in Wonderland with machine guns,' blending such elements as dragons, B-52 bombers, and brothels." Seyfried's supporting cast could include Vanessa Hudgens, Abbie Cornish, Evan Rachel Wood, and Emma Stone.


Snyder, who directed 300 and this week's Watchmen, is creating what may be the coolest movie EVER! I'm a sucker for crazy sci-fi/fantasy/alternate universe stuff and the cast (with the exception of Cornish and Hudgens) is fantastic. Seyfried is my 2nd favorite person on <em>Big Love (right after crazy Nicolette.) Evan Rachel Wood completely won me over in Across the Universe and almost made me forget she used to date Marilyn Manson. And Emma Stone is definitely an up-and-coming girl to watch. As funny as the boys were in Superbad, Stone's was the brightest spot in the movie.

I can't WAIT for the trailer to come out for this. As if I weren't salivating enough over Watchmen.
