    That other "Ex Machina" is an adaptation of the Brian K Vaughan comic of the same name.

    I thought that's what this thread was for.

    Garland's project sounds promising too though.

    Hmm you'd think the comic creator would a have a copyright on "ex machina"? Seeing as it's not the more common term "deus ex machina". Not to mention i believe the comic was picked up for a film adaptation?

    Maybe not because not alot of people know about the comic. It's a bit like how The Avengers comic was renamed 'Steed and Peel' even though they were around first (and are generally cooler :cwink:)

    I'm looking forward to this. 28 days later only is enough reason to give this a go.

    Oscar Isaac is a great choice. You won't know what he's up to.

    An adaptation of the comic would've been great; personally I think it'd work better as a TV series.

    Looking forward to this though solely because of Garland; I love 28 Days Later and Sunshine (even their 3rd acts!), and Never Let Me Go I think is underrated.

    I've seen The Machine, and it starts out really great, but it quickly becomes generic and just another action nonsense movie.
