Kubrick's Lunatic at Large treatment

The New York Times is reporting that a long lost Stanley Kubrick film treatment, called Lunatic at Large, will finally be made into a movie. It's from his Paths of Glory and The Killing era, so I'm not exactly expecting masterpiece, but they're planning to set the new movie in its original setting, the 50's. I'm still hoping that Kubrick's Napoleon script gets produced. My suggestion for the director: Darren Aronofsky.

I saw this today on the Drudge Report. I've posted 2 of Chris Palmer's spots on my website:

yeah, because other directors doing kubrick's stuff has really worked out well.

If Spielberg hadn't made AI, we never would have the single oddest cameo in the history of cinema: the Chris Rock Comedy Robot.

Sadly I can't find an image or a video clip of the scene online.

Er, jbg, I don't think Spielberg's failure should be generalized to all directors. Spielberg is generally ham-fisted, and hasn't directed a great movie in a decade.

does 2010 count, then?
or the guccione-produced "my cock, worked orange"?
