I think that there are tax breaks for movie production. It is not necessarily a large amount a tens of millions upwards, mainly in the form of easy write offs, so you can claim it against other incomes.

Why? It was a great film, with possibly of the best performances by Keanu and Patrick of their careers.

Yes that could be the reason. Shame. There are plenty of Arthur C Clarke books that have not been made into films.

The Shining prequel rumours:  |  |  |  | Quote: ‘The Shining’ Prequel ‘The Overlook Hotel’ Moves Forward!!!
MOVIES Posted by Evan Dickson on April 11, 2013 @ 2:04pm | 9 Comments Category: Movies / News Get ready for The Overlook Hotel.
Back in July, we featured this blurb from The LA Times, “ “Warner Bros.is quietly exploring the possibility of a prequel to “The Shining,” The studio has solicited the involvement of Hollywood writer-producer Laeta Kalogridis and her partners Bradley Fischer and James Vanderbilt to craft a new take as producers, according to a person familiar with the project who was not authorized to talk about it publicly… The film would focus on what happened before Jack Torrance (of course played memorably onscreen by Jack Nicholson), his wife and their psychic son arrived at the haunted retreat where Torrance soon descends into violent madness. ”
Turns out they were dead-on. It’s been announced today that former “Walking Dead” showrunner Glen Mazzara is the likely candidate to write Overlook Hotel for the studio. Per Deadline, “Glen Mazzara, who ran AMC’s smash hit series The Walking Dead for the past several seasons, will now focus on ghosts. He’s in talks to write The Overlook Hotel, a prequel to the Stanley Kubrick-directed The Shining, based on the Stephen King novel.”
Personally, if this has to happen, I dig the idea of them doing a story about the hotel rather than a Torrance family origin story. What about you? |  |  |  |  |
