I've always thought it'd be cool to set the story of Sweeney Todd in a modern-day corporation, sort of In The Company of Men with more blood.Cliff Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14601389977814866457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-431609518471013077.post-76714440357747223132014-06-17T18:57:17.973-04:002014-06-17T18:57:17.973-04:00Saw this in theaters, and liked it more than you d...Saw this in theaters, and liked it more than you did (probably because I like the Underworld movies too), but yeah, it does kinda let itself off easy by the end.<br /><br />I'm always interested in stories told from the POV of the villains (sorta); I've often considered writing a character who climbs the ladder within an obviously evil organization but never has a change of heart or starts subverting from within or anything - he just does his job, gets promoted and promoted and promoted, and one day, bam! He's the Pope (or whatever). And he got there just by being good at his job, and supporting the goals of the organization because nobody thinks they're the villain/a fish doesn't know it's in water/etc., etc.Phil Freemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05041604069121995890noreply@blogger.com
