City of Ember trailer
This looks like it could actually be a really cool movie. I hope they don't screw it up.
Premise: After 200 years of living in a contained,underground city, the citizens of Ember must find a way out once the generator that powers their lights starts to fail.
A mix of steampunk/electropunk, maybe? Could be good. Interesting to see Bill Murray in this kind of role. I wonder if it's played serious, or if he has to do the goofball leader of the city. Let's hope they do this right, and we might have another decent science fiction movie worth seeing.
I see that smile.

Ooh; that does look fun! Do you know if this is this based on a book? I read a short story similar to this idea when I was a wee kiddie, but I don't think I've heard the title "Ember" before.
It does seem to be a book adaption. First book in a YA sci-fi series by Jeanne DuPrau, in fact.

No worries, Blair. Sure, I'd be happy to check out some of the extra info about City of Ember and see what can be spread around. Let me know what the process is on your end.
