ACH, I'm also looking forward to seeing TRON. The visuals and the music look and sound amazing!
Parker, regarding your 'remakes' comment .... Hollywood is also aware of this 'remake' situation and some even consider it to be a big problem as many remakes have not made the income that the bean counters anticipated.
That is precisely why the big thinkers in Hollywood are avidly searching for new material.
And that is why I think some of you GetBiggers have some pretty damn interesting 'life experiences" that should be brought to Hollywood's attention. But only through the proper channels ... screenplay, book, agent, lawyer, guild, etc.
One friend of mine had dinner with a top star a year or so ago and during that dinner he presented that major star with a verbal 'play by play' of a movie he had in mind.
The star was so impressed that he started acting out the role he perceived for himself at that dinner table and offered to deliver the script to the right person for consideration once it was written.
So my friend proceeded to write the script but did not adhere to the proper script format. Instead he went to elaborate expense to create a very elaborate storyboard which 'pictured' the movie scene by scene. He being an artist with no writing background actually thought it was a better presentation than a movie script.
This elaborate 'picture book' eventually arrived at the major studio of this big time star .... but it was immediately cast aside and returned because the manner in which it was done would have caused all sorts of legal problems if anyone in authority had even taken a look at it.
Three to five years from now some of you GetBiggers will be kicking yourselves in the ass for not pursuing your dream to make it big in LA-LA Land, because someone is gonna do it and make it happen .... and only then you'll realize that YOU could have been that 'conten'da'!
