to the people who read it
since the movie is about fading resources(like crop), is there a cheesy,obvious eco-message in the script(like Avatar)? Considering that Jonah wrote it for Spielberg it wouldn't surprise me.

It's not nearly as contrived as Avatar. That being said, there is a definite Spielberg feel to it.

No "cheesy,obvious eco-message" whatsoever. Not what the movie is about. ;) The only "message" I would say the script has is a "pro-science/explorer" thing.

Hello there guys!
Well, I'm a newbie here, still reading the leaked script which is by far a good entertain.
I'd like to discuss it with you... my main doubt is about the robots (we can post spoilers here, right?). Jonathan doesn't describe them physically with high detail (neither the others), how are you imagining them? human-like? (ala Terminator or Alien) or more machine-like? (I, robot)




Please, forgive my English, as you sure have noticed, it's not my first language. :P

I think TARS would be 100% mechanical robot, while CASE some sort of android like David in Prometheus :think: .

So, Casey Affleck may be playing
Case
after all...
Also, knowing the cast we know so far, who do you think is playing who? and who would you like to see playing the rest of the characters?
My guesses:
McConaughey: obviously Cooper
Hathaway: Brand, although I would be more than OK with Chastain playing her.
Caine: Brand's father... and it would be fun looking for an actor to play a younger version of him.
Chastain: A female version of Roth. Roth's a better character, but I'd like to see more of Jessica, so I would be OK with her playing Doyle.
Affleck: Roth/Doyle... or even Tars or Case, depending on the way the robots are portrayed.
Irwin: I've envisioned him as the director of the LIGO, Ansen. But he is probably playing a larger character, so I'm guessing Cooper's father-in-law. Or even Doyle...
So what about Murph? An actor in his 30s can play him from 20s to 50s.
And Case and the robots? The same actor for all the chinese and Case?
So, what do you think, guys? woah, I'm so excited for this movie, even now that I know that is not as great as I was hoping. But I consider Christopher better writer than Jonathan, so I think this just can be better now.
