How Would Aliens Fare Against Dinosaurs? Barry Sonnenfeld Aims To Find Out
EXCLUSIVE: Barry Sonnenfeld, finishing up his third Men in Black film, has come up with a new spin on the alien film genre. Sonnenfeld is at the center of a publishing/movie deal with Liquid Comics and producer Arnold Rifkin and his Cheyenne Enterprises. Sonnenfeld will team with comic book writer Grant Morrison to develop a graphic novel and movie under the title: Dominion: Dinosaurs Versus Aliens. Morrison, whose comic book work includes Batman and The Invisibles, will write both the graphic novel and the script. Sonnenfeld will direct the film. . . .
The graphic novel will chronicle a secret prehistoric world war battle. When an alien invasion attacks Earth in the age of the dinosaurs, the planet's only hope is the giants that roam the planet with, it turns out, a lot more intelligence than previously realized. . . .

Is this the full title? Are you sure it's not Dominion: Dinosaurs Versus Aliens: An Even Earlier (I Mean Way Earlier) Prequel to the Exorcist?

C'mon... you know someone is gonna make a mash-up poster of that title in the not too distant future.

It is the Grant Morrison aspect that gives me hope that this will be clever.
