I can't get the trailer to work, but from what I've heard, it sounds pretty far out so I'm definitely plannin on seeing this.

There's also a graphic novel from Vertigo:

Both movie and comic look really good.

Maybe a fountain of love?

Maybe a fountain of love?

Judging from teh Spanish Conquistador armor, I would imagine its about the fountain of youth, which was believed to reside in what is now Florida.

Spanish Conquistador? History?

Do yourself a favor and ditch this snooze-a-thon in the making and go watch or read Tuck Everlasting instead. All the fun of eternal life water without the need to revisit your 4th grade social studies book on the big screen.

If Tuck Everlasting was a car, I would take a dump on its windshield.

Darren Aronofsky is a great director, and from the looks of the trailer this is going to be one hell of a trip. Darren was also rumored to helm the film version of The Watchmen, and I hope that comes true.

That would be cool if he directed The Watchmen...though I'm wary about it being converted to a movie even if by such a great director. Think it would work better as a 12 part television series.
