Looks cool enough, although I hoped they would make some twist with Temple's character, as that trope, beyond just being stale, seems rather underwhelming considering the outlandishness of the rest of this film.
On another note, it'll be interesting to see how many parents take their kids to see this movie, thinking it's going to be another Harry Potter. Also amusing to ponder whether it'll be scared kids or scared parents running out of the film, haha!

Well that was unexpected. And it's _sooo_ close to Preacher in tone. (what ever happened to the Seth Rogan take on that - still under development?)
Still, I can dig this.
I remember liking the book, and being bummed that the film wasn't playing nearby.
As for Merrin, I'd be interested to see the movie to compare her character there to the book. In there, the story was told from Ig's POV, and after a while you could see the pedestal he had put her on, and his frantic work to keep her up there despite her very human flaws.
It's always interesting to see a first-person work adapted for movies, which inherently gives the audience a bit of omniscient distance.

It's one of the things that led to their relationship trouble, which led directly to her death.
Sounds like a really interesting, unique flick - especially since I'm not at all offended by or even remotely sensitive to the "trope" identified by the reviewer.
I'm not going to spoil it but a word on Daniel Radcliffe
bless you Dan, but I really can't take you serious when you're trying to
1: Do an American accent
2: try and act tough with the swearing and the smoking... you look like a fifteen year old trying to be cool
