sí, Señor Spawn, and easily the best movie Anderson has ever made IMOanyway, hopefully David Peoples will be involved, maybe even that wily Hampton Fancher too, God knows Ridley Scott needs great writing these days
and if Douglas Trumbull is involved in the special effects, DAMN, I guarantee I will be there for the midnight showing, hell, I may to try to make it to the world premiere
there was so much stuff that was left out from the original novel that could be a story by itself
I still have mixed feelings about this purportedly happening though, drudging up the old stuff is still at least questionable as I have said thousands of times before and worse
what's the story now on that
Alien prequel, hmm? is Scott not involved with that anymore?
or perhaps is he CRAZY enough and have enough weight to throw around in Hollywood to try and combine the two?think about it, the Xenomorphs pop up on those vaunted "Off-World Colonies" and a band of replicants and humans have to fight for survival, and unlike AvP, it will be the crossover that works this time, IT WOULD DECIMATE ALL
but wasn't there a story a few years ago about both Ridley Scott and Tony Scott wanting to make a series of short films that would be a prequel to BR?
regardless, if this happens, it needs to be a new story, as much as I would love to see Harrison Ford and Rutger Hauer on screen together again (and where the hell has Sean Young been in the last 20 years?), a remake or sequel seems so wrong even if they go the retcon route
and if that were to happen, the estate of Philip K. Dick should snuff it out post-haste
