    So like most book-to-movie adaptations: more 'splody, less musings on the nature of identity.

    Maybe the Trailer will change my mind but this all feels very 90's sci-fi. Johnny Mnemonic, The Sixth Day, Hackers, Lawnmower Man etc

    Stuff like Predator, Terminator 2, Robocop (?), came out then too.

    Oh yeah, and Bruce Willis vs. Asteroid

    @Illogic: IT could go either way. But the look of this leans away from Terminator and Armageddeon.

    It was already on my Don't Watch list. I suppose now I'll have to put a gold start beside it as well?

    Having Richard "Superman" "Lethal Weapon" "Ladyhawke" "many other awesome movies" Donner around can only improve it.


    Altho there's a limit to what he can do if it's completely sucky at base.

    I'm hoping Meredith left those out to be funny.

    Richard Donners presence can be explained due to the fact he's married to the X-Men franchise producer Lauren Shuler Donner, as far as i remember he even associatively produced the first X-Men film.

    @Ortep: That and, golly, the man's made a wonderful comic book movie before... something about a super man?


    If it's being reshot in a panic, at least they've called in a guy who knows the genre.

    Gavin Hood was probably a bad choice. Let blockbuster directors make blockbusters.

    @smurph0404: I dunno, nothing in Sam Raimi's background would necessarily have led execs to believe he'd be capable of making a huge blockbuster, but he did. Sometimes it does work.


    But that point aside, I agree that this is probably a pretty ominous sign that this is not one of those times.

    "...taking the whole project much more seriously, making the storyline darker, or just adding much more brutal ass-kickery."


    No.


    this is the exact opposite of the motivation behind the whole "repainting the set" story as you describe here :

    Tom Rothman is the villain here...

    I have a friend doing VFX for this show...I'll ask him if he knows anything....

    every instinct I have says they've gone back to make this movie more 'fun'...you know, for kids!

    time will tell.
