RevolutionSF Newsblast provides sci-fi news like nature intended. Today's sponsor: The Duran Duran song "Electric Barbarella." They got their name from the movie, so this is their way of saying thanks. I guess.
Someone Tries To Make Barbarella Movie Again
Someone is trying again to
remake Barbarella. The one with Robert Rodriguez went into the pooper because they could not agree on where to shoot the movie. My backyard is free.
The story says the remake won't be campy. If they take out the shag carpeting in her spaceship, I am out. Will it still have a girl in it?
Robin Hood In Space!
They're doing a movie about
Robin Hood, but
in space. My favorite part of this story is that it's an "untitled saga."
Here's a new rule. I just made it up. You can't call it a "saga" until you name it.
Night of the Medium Dead
The Patricia Arquette series about a medium,
Medium, will insert Arquette into the movie
into the movie Night of the Living Dead on the night before Halloween. This is for all of us who have imagined the Arquette family being eaten by zombies.
Foundation Movie Script "Very Long"
Director Roland Emmerich
told io9 that the writer of
Saving Private Ryan is working on the script for the
Foundation movie. The writer told him the script is "very long" and "There's a lot of nonsense." Ah, so he did read the original books.
That's right. In your face, book that put me to sleep.
