After her last picture (and only the second one of her career, after Down to the Bone), Winter's Bone, got Oscar and Critic's Choice nominations, people have been eager to see what writer/director Debra Granik will choose next (rumor was a Pippi Longstocking movie). According to FilmSchoolRejects, she is going to adapt a book called Rule of the Bone. Here is the description:

“When we first meet him, Chappie is a punked-out teenager living with his mother and abusive stepfather in an upstate New York trailer park. During this time, he slips into drugs and petty crime. Rejected by his parents, out of school and in trouble with the police, he claims for himself a new identity as a permanent outsider; he gets a crossed-bones tattoo on his arm, and takes the name ‘Bone.’”

Do these movies have any connection aside from having "Bone" in the title?

I hope she keeps this trend going and refuses to direct any movies in the future unless they are retitled with the word 'bone' in them.

@VioletEyedDragon: Crytek is a developer whose games all have the word cry in them, like Far Cry and Crysis.
