Paradise Lost

After Prometheus came out, I read so many articles comparing it to John Milton's poem, Paradise Lost. I never saw the connection between the two (even after reading the articles), but it made me wonder if a Paradise Lost movie would come out any time soon. The answer is no, sadly.  "Paradise Lost" was in production but apparently was put on hold due to budget concerns. The producers had planned to give it the 3D treatment, which makes me kind of want to vomit. Anyway, I hope they'll find the money to make the movie soon, because I can already see myself watching it on a cold, snowy day around Christmas 2013 -_-

If you don't remember much about Paradise Lost, the story is pretty simple. It's based on the book of Genesis and recounts the fall of man into sin. Some friends become enemies, some enemies become friends, and at the end, we're all richer from the experience.

This movie is asking to be made! There's so much controversial material there, like Milton's crazy ideas on angelic interpenetration. Annnd if you have no idea what I'm talking about, take a gander in Book 8. You're welcome.
