>Radar Pictures, which served as an executive producer on Sony’s Jumanji films, has secured rights to “Karn Evil 9,” the futuristic 1973 song by London prog-rock band Emerson, Lake & Palmer, to develop as a sci-fi feature. New York Times bestselling author Daniel H. Wilson has been hired to adapt the screenplay, which is inspired by the title and lyrics created and recorded by band members Keith Emerson, Greg Lake and Carl Palmer. >Centered on a society that has drained all its blood with a dependence on technology, the film will explore the world controlled by a pervasive and dictatorial technocracy. The annual “Karn Evil” — a macabre rite of passage — is a young person’s once-in-a-lifetime chance to experience unbridled freedom, before subjugating themselves to the ruling class. When people stop returning from their Karn Evil experience, fear drives a revolution to topple the status quo and the artificial intelligence discovered at its heart. >Michael Napoliello and Maria Frisk will produce for Radar with full cooperation from ELP and its management. Ted Field, who has produced more than 60 films including the Jumanji franchise, the Riddick franchise, Spring Breakers, The Last Samurai, and Runaway Bride, will serve as exec producer on behalf of Radar.
No stress but that title and subtitle are literally references to the song

Why is The Atlantic so fucking banal? Every article I've ever seen from it is just pure mind rot.

kids these days don't have the dedication to listen to prog rock. sit them down with Jethro Tull's "A Passion Play" and they'll be fidgeting with their phones before the first movement is done, and asleep by the Hare Who Lost His Spectacles.

Kanye is just over there, being a genius with samples of other peoples' work, you etiolated little shit.
>Michael Napoliello and Maria Frisk will produce for Radar with full cooperation from ELP and its management Nigga, 2/3rds of the band is dead. Anyway, sounds pretty daring. Best case scenario it'll be interesting, worst case scenario they'll make it another YA shitshow.

peter gabriel did enough stage performances of this with a fox mask, wearing a red dress.
next we'll get someone agitating for another animated version of The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway.
