Okay, Charlie is an awesome writer, but the news today on imdb that he is writing Karl Vonnegut's "Slaughterhouse Five" into a Guillermo del Toro film just sound like an odd combination for a box office hit.
I think this is the episode of Three's Company where there is some kind of misunderstanding.

Charlie Kaufman is one of the few people I would trust to write a free adaptation of a Vonnegut work. Anybody else has to go as by-the-book as possible!
Yeah, I'm guess it won't be a box office hit, if it happens

I'm seriously excited about the possibility of this. Del Toro and Kaufman, two of my favorite filmmakers, adapting one of my favorite books? I'd camp out. (No I wouldn't.)

To be honest I don't really care whether this will be a "box office hit" it sounds beep incredible.

It's not even the first time they are making a film of slaughterhouse.
Mother Night was also made into a very good film. Not sure what else

I love them both and I think the combo should be interesting. I read the book a long time ago. Is this the first Vonnegut story they are turning into a film?
I'm just hoping they stay true to Vonnegut's style; ironic, full of humor, dark, human
