This would be awesome if it was done well, BUT...
1) There's already a glaring mistake there...Elric is already weak and sickly before he finds Stormbringer. Before the sword, he relies on medicine and potions to sustain himself, but the sword uses the souls it sucks from its victims to sustain him, so he doesn't need them while he's wielding it. Pedantic mode over. [pedantic mode off]
2) As they said, there's a hell of a lot of material in the books to turn into one film. A trilogy would be much better.
3) I don't have much faith that Hollywood will treat the source material with a great amount of respect.
Sorry if the above sounds pretty negative, but I do love the Elric books, and would hate to see a bad film made of them.
Y'know I've often thought a manga or animated film would be a better way of bringing the character to the screen rather than a live action film...
