    Shane Black is set to write and a direct a Doc Savage movie. I'm quite pleased to say the least and from what he's saying about it. Sounds like he could knock it out the park..

    "We're shooting it as though it’s in the '30s, including all the Capra-esque elements of 1930s films like 'You Can't Take It With You'."
    "the idea of 'What if Jimmy Stewart were a stone-cold killer?' basically."

    "Perhaps my quote should be more accurately read, potential killer. Doc Savage had the abilities of a fighting machine but truly the soul of a pacifist."

    "Doc Savage is a personal film to me, it’s a 1930s pulp character so it hasn't been around for 75 years or so, but people if they're introduced to it they'll get to know, hopefully, what I came to love as a kid."

    "I've read those series for 43 years and always wanted to figure out how to crack it."

    Anyone else looking forward to this movie?
