Goddamnit Dustin, why isn’t one of the categories for the site, “MOST IMPORTANT THING EVER”? Sigh. Fine, I’ll call this “trade news”.

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm incredibly honored to be working with David Goyer, Warner Bros, and @neilhimself on SANDMAN. #Prelude

I’ve got nothing. I’m really that excited. I mean, I’m so excited that my snark broke. Please, by all means, add all manner of speculation, hope, and storyboarding that you can possibly muster to this comment thread. Let us make this a monument to everything that they need to do with this film. No, not film, but dare I say it? Franchise. I want six, no, twelve movies. I want $150 million dollar budgets on each, and armed men keeping Zack Snyder and Peter Jackson at least 300 yards from anything to do with these movies. I want Joss Whedon as a consultant. And I really could go for a burrito right now, if anyone is making a run already.

I’m just saying though, that if Amanda Palmer does the soundtrack, we riot.
