Sounds brillaint.

The Hobbit was always my endearing favourite. It's Classic Family Fantasy.

I can see those Mountain Trolls already.

The Trolls and Smaug, I'm sure, will steal the show.

Okay, I know it isn't science fiction - although it might be called fantasy, as it has about as much to do with real police work as Indiana Jones has to do with real archaeology - I have to mention that there is a film version of "Starsky and Hutch" coming. I know it was a cheesy '70s series, but I loved it. The screen version stars Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson (who I love - did anyone see "The Minus Man", from 1999, in which he plays a very polite serial killer? Great film). And even though I'm not a big Snoop Dogg fan, I think the casting of him as Huggy Bear is sheer brilliance.

This film is scheduled to open on March 5 in the U.S. and March 19 in the U.K.

I'd heard about this as well. I LOVE Owen Wilson - he always makes me laugh. I loved the series but I really have this anti-Ben Stiller thing going. I don't know why but he gives me the heebie jeebies. I can see Snoop Dogg as a great Huggy Bear. I can't wait to see the outfits they come up with!

I'm not a big Ben Stiller fan, either. But for Owen Wilson, not to mention for a visit to my misspent youth in the '70s, I'll put up with him.

Oh now c'mon guys! "Death Race 2000" was an absolute classic!!! This should be in the "Sci-Fi Trivia" quiz: "How many points was a 'lady pushing pram' worth???" Ha ha... And good ol' Sly Stallone, what a cameo!!!

Gilgamesh (wow!? what's the sequel, "Ishtar's Descent Into Hell"??)
Fahrenheit 451
Logan's Run
The Thunderbirds
Rendezvous With Rama
Foundation
Ringworld
Neuromancer

...Man, great ideas...but I'm ****-SCARED!!!

Who'll direct? Spielberg? Who'll act? Jim Carey? Robin Williams? ha ha... Nessus a cutesy CGI dough-eyed joke-monster from Dreamworks?? oh my brains.... HELP ME, MARDUK!!!!

THE HOBBIT, now there's the obvious follow-up to LOTR!!! It's all up to Peter "I'm A Derek" Jackson here!!! (And "King Kong" is gonna be...well...interesting, that's for sure!)
