On this week's Slate Culture Gabfest, they discuss choosing the perfect title, and titles that changed before a thing was released. Their guest brings up There Will Be Blood as an interesting title that she feels uneasy about:

Has anybody seen Roeg's Eureka?

It seems like it has more than a few similarities to TWBB. Like a good Roeg it looks baroque and intense.

Seems like there's a bunch of new There Will Be Blood w/live score events happing this spring in England.

Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

Ah! Now I have even more questions. That just really highlights how little we know about the production of PTA's films, especially PDL onwards. It'll be interesting to feel them slowly be illuminated over time, when the books start getting written.

Fascinating fill in the gaps of history. Only wish it went deeper

I agree. The kid sounds like he's got a really good head on his shoulders.  Sounds like he's much better off away from the Hollywood big time.

My main takeaway is that I've spent the past decade completely mistaken about who the actor was that got replaced. Thanks to name similarity, I always thought it was this guy: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1218757/?ref_=tt_cl_t8

It seems pretty simple, that he just didn't have the acting chops to go toe to toe with DDL. And probably didn't understand the austere nature of the shoot, how that would ultimately contribute to the palpable atmosphere onscreen. Why it might be necessary to sacrifice some personal comforts in order to complement one of the most legendary performances in film history. He just didn't have what it takes. God bless him

I don't know if PTA was stupid or if it was a crazy bet that could have created something special. Anyway, it's crazy that they lost two weeks and finished in schedule.
