Alex Cox's Bill, the Galactic Hero kickstarter project!

[Mike Carroll]

Meant to post about this before (and possibly did, but forgot that I did). Cult movie-maker Alex Cox (director of such classics as Repo Man and Sid & Nancy) is running a Kickstarter project to raise $100,000 to make a movie adaptation of Harry Harrison's seminal anti-war SF novel Bill, the Galactic Hero.

There's only six days to go, and the pledged funds are close to the target, but not quite there yet! The project needs your help!

Alex Cox doing Bill, the Galactic Hero - how can that not be something you want to see!?

As many of his Moviedrome introductions as I could find on YouTube:

All the free stuff on his site is worth checking out as well.

Even if you're not up for the music consider giving him a couple of quid for it a tip. :-)

Update: They've passed their goal, so it looks like it's happening!
