Oh, and Jake Gyllenhaal is playing the lead role in the film Prince of Persia that is based on the video game of the same name.

Wow, they remade The Andromeda Strain and I didn't even know it. It's a two-part TV movie premiering Memorial Day on A&E.

I love the 70's original. It's a must see in widescreen, because of all the split-screen madness that's always been removed in the Pan&Scan versions shown on TV through the years.

I'm anxious to see the remake. It's a great story.

I never saw the movie version, but I HATED the book. And the commercial we saw for the A&E version looked awful.

Really? I love the book. You, Sir, are WRONG.

Ghoulish Delight · 05-20-2008, 05:10 PM

Crichton's worst ending. And that's a pretty lofty prize.

Beat only by Stephen King's. Way to ruin almost every book he's ever written.

I could take issue with that...

Iron Man was a ton of fun.

Best Stan Lee cameo yet.

His back to the camera, he appeared as "Hef", surrounded by women. He turned ... and the audience (in our theater, at least), broke into laughter and applause.
