      I can’t wait for Universal or some other company to remake *Scarface* again for 2032. Y’know it’s gonna happen, it’d be a 50-year gap between film adaptations.

      At least these posters kinda remind me of 2015’s Far From the Madding Crowd

      And when can we expect a trailer?

      I truly believe Little Women (2019) deserved an Oscar nom for directing. Greta Gerwig found a way to make the themes explicit. That book really rewards viewers w all these once-in-a-generation remakes. 

      But other adaptations of classic books really haven’t stuck the landing for me lately (and they don’t seem to fare well w other viewers either). 

      This certainly won’t be like Emerald Ferrell’s Wuthering Heights or Dakota Johnson’s Persuasion, but what will it gives us that justifies it…existing?

      Also: There’s gonna be a Pride and Prejudice w Emma Corrin. They’re version of Lady Chatterly’s Lover gave us a surprisingly healthy, hopeful romance (but wasn’t nearly as raunchy or bold as the book) 

    3. Is that part of the Pride and Prejudice cinematic universe?

      Edit: it is actually another Jane Austen novel lol

    4. You know what, I’m here for it. It’s an unpopular opinion but I like both the recent Austen interpretations *and* I like the classics.

      Movie poster isn’t a bunch of floating heads either so that’s a plus.

      I’m just gonna watch the one with Emma Thompson and Hugh Grant in it. That one won an Oscar.

    6. The one on the left is Sense.

      The one on the right is Sensibility.

      Together, they fight crime.

      Unlike some people, I do think we need a new Sense and Sensibility every five years. 

      HOWEVER.

      When will these cowards tackle Mansfield Park again? I understand that Rozema’s is a masterpiece, but someone needs to be brave at some point. 

    9. For a moment I thought Daisy was played by Edgar Jones, and Esme by Creed Miles. I was confused. Yes, I know nothing of the story or the actors.

      Hollywood needs to recognize there are more classic Romance authors than Jane Austen and the Brontë sisters

    11. There really are no idea’s left…it’s like 40x now with this good enough book from 200 years ago

    12. Daisy Edgar-Jones’ face looked really badly photoshopped onto someone else’s body in the second poster. Everything is blurry except her face.

      I’m going to see it, but nobody’s ever going to top Alan Rickman as Colonel Brandon. That was perfect casting.

    14. I just realized, only because of these posters, that Daisy Edgar-Jones is not the woman that played Rey in Star Wars. I completely forgot Daisy Ridley’s name! I was like, “Hold up, that doesn’t look like Rey at all, wtf?”

      I don’t care how many “but X version did it perfectly!” comments I hear, if we get another cinematic golden nugget like Darcy’s hand clench from the 2005 “Pride and Prejudice” and a reasonably pretty classical score made by humans that I can put on in the background while doing things I will be thoroughly content.

    16. Earnesty and clarity, those wonderful mentalities
      Of decent positivity are all that we can strive
      But misery and poverty, they follow me, my family
      And though it seems that I can’t win, I think I have to try

    17. If you’re a British actress you are obliged to be in a dozen movies like this before you turn 30.

      The tagline and cover photos don’t match the novel, to me. I don’t mind remakes at all. I love all the versions of Jane Eyre with different takes on the characters and focus on different parts of the story. I just wish they would actually remake the freakin book and not turn the name recognition into an unrecognizable story. Obviously, this isn’t out yet, but period pieces don’t have to be attached to established works! Make something up. It worked for Bridgerton.
