"If only" Hollywood would do this...

I'm sorry, the what now? Please tell me it's another lost Piper manuscript and not someone trying to "modernize" his universe.


It's apparently a new version by John Scalzi.

Well. I'm cautiously optimistic. I really like Piper's stuff, and wish he'd lived longer, because I think he would have produced a lot more great work.

It's a re-write of the original book. Pretty insulting to the memory of Piper if you ask me.
 
How about a movie about tomorrow's "Rapture" and the 153 day road to Judgement Day in October.

I am foreseeing Roland Emmerich's next project.
 
Re: 'Soylent Green' remake

'Soylent Green'

The 1973 film, which is loosely based upon the 1966 science fiction novel Make Room! Make Room!, by Harry Harrison -from Wikipedia.

I'd like to see Brad Pitt as the lead role and directed by David Fincher.

A remake not a reboot. Very similar to Solaris.

Apparently there is a Soylent remake on the way. But it goes farther than the original. The story of the original film will be about half of the remake.
 
TrekBBS: The Movie

I want Jim Carrey to play me.

I dibs Tina Fey! :eek:

Fans should stop caring what Hollywood does. What is this obsession with getting to see your fan favorite on the movie screen. Isn't your imagination good enough or do you have imaginations anymore.

I get bored of my own stuff. I want someone else to do the work sometimes.

The Princess Vampire Diaries :evil:

The story practically writes itself. :)

You're a scary guy. :rommie:
 
A future space adventure series, with real world physics.. say 500+ years in the future, Colonies on the Moon, Mars and larger asteroids some hostile to others with different styles of government/society...Asteroid mining..Jovan and Saturn bases..assorted space stations.. and our intrepid crew keeping the peace between and on them..

With political intrigue, infighting..and the hint of "something" out there in the Oort Cloud.

Well written and well produced..with just enough budget to keep the stories flowing...


but that's a damn pipe-dream...


(sigh)


instead we get cooking shows on that damn SyFy channel..and fishing shows...
Sounds like Niven's "Known Space" Belters v. Flatlanders.
