I have not read the Mortal Engine book. I had brief glimpses of reader reviews, and I still don't have enthusiasm for this kind of story.

Maybe if Terry Gilliam was directing. But he has not had decent box office for a long time and so Terry is not going to do another big budget film.

Anyway, I'll wait until "Mortal Engines" the film is released and check out the reception for it at the time and go from there.

Imo at least, BB ;-)

it is just in my opinion - imo - 🌈

I wasn't aware of this book at all, but going on that synopsis I'd give it a go 




Quick, play dead.

I must be one of the few who enjoyed King Kong; on the other hand, I didn't enjoy The Lovely Bones.

So I'm open to see what Jackson has to offer next, without being too enthusiastic about it but neither down on it either.

I didn't particularly enjoy The Lovely Bones either, but then I didn't particularly enjoy the book. Too sickly sweet for my taste.
