If mr Freeman is going to be verb-nouning me for the entire movie, i.e. "drop all but sarcasm" or "pick up popcorn and place in mouth" etc, I don't know if it will come across well. Makes me want to see it though, weird. Maybe I'll take an ipod and thereby mute mr freeman. :) I think the idea of making a movie of a text-based adventure game is a misdirected effort, considering that the entire sport of these types of games comes from the choose your own adventure style of play.
