 | Meanwhile, since I may be in it for a microsecond, I've taken something of an interest in Mirror Mask, Henson, Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean's Labyrinth meets Neverwhere project. It remains poised conceptually between being the best idea and the worst idea ever. Obviously, Gina McKee's addition to the cast is a major stroke in the win column. After all, a connection to Lair of the White Worm, arguably the greatest moment in the history of British film, is vital for this sort of work, and if you can't get Peter Capaldi to put on a nightshirt and call himself Islington again Gina is probably your best bet.
This is lined up at present for a straight-to-video release, but apparently it was received terribly enthusiastically as an idea at geek Meccah Comic-Con and a theatrical release may thus be in the wind. Mind you, these very same people apparently came in a single, unstoppable wave of geekspunk at the sight of the hilarious Batman: Dead End, site of some of the worst dialogue to be crammed into eight minutes since Attack of the Clones on fast-wind, so I wouldn't start polishing your ibis heads just yet.
