Grant Morrison, greatest living mainstream comic book writer, weighs in on my movie of the year

“Morrison: Yeah. I went to see Crank: High Voltage when we were in Los Angeles. I had just watched that, and I thought everything else just looks like slow motion, really. [...] To me that was just a great action film, and every action film after is going to have to try and move at that speed.”

I make no secret of wanting to write the screen adaptation of Gantz and that would be my starting point, using the freneticism of Crank 2 as a chassis for modern Japanese horror sci-fi.
