So I received about a million e-mails about this Swamp Thing 3-D movie.

Hollywood producer Joel Silver was doing a press conference for the graphic novel-based film Whiteout, when he dropped this wee bit of information:

“I’m developing a picture now that I’d like to do,” he said. “I’ll hopefully do SWAMP THING, which is a movie we’ve had for a long time. We think that would be great to do in 3D.”

I’ve been asked what my thoughts on this are, given my Swamp Thing fanboyism, and, honestly, I don’t have a whole lot to say since I don’t really have much to go on. Well, the 3D part makes me think of Creature from the Black Lagoon‘s original release in 3D, which in turn makes me think a Swamp Thing movie totally done up as a black and white ’50s monster flick would be fantastic.

However, the main thing that comes to mind is that if a Swamp Thing movie does get greenlit, perhaps that’d be enough for DC to start up a new Swamp Thing comic book series to tie into it. And that’d be okay with me.

I am looking forward to the eventual Nancy and Sluggo movie as well. “ANGELINA JOLIE and VIN DIESEL are…NANCY AND SLUGGO in…THREE ROCKS. COMING SOON.” Or perhaps going the other direction, in something like Sid and Nancy.

…I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: I wish I was better at Photoshop.
