The Black Hole remake???

I didn't get the memo I guess.


The Black Hole (2012) - MovieWeb.com

No thanks.

I can't even bring myself to look at the link.

I like the original just fine thanks. Good cheesy fun.

Hey, at least it's not a board game.

I could enjoy a more scientific take on black holes.
Not sure re-using this film for that is the best idea, but if they can use a little string theory to weird things up it could be fun.

Will they finally show where the hell those dudes in the original ended up - Where Reinhart had his makeout session with Maximillion. As long as Vincent and Old Bob look the same - I'd see it.

"Joseph Kosinski and Sean Bailey, the director and producer of Disney's upcoming Tron Legacy, and screenwriter Travis Beacham are teaming up for a reinvention of the 1979 sci-fi film The Black Hole."

Notice the future tense there? This project was discussed in the leadup to TRON Legacy; looks like the text dates back two or three years.

If it's still a goer then great, I'd go see it as long as the new Cygnus looks nice (that's literally my only criterion).

Bit sceptical it'll ever see the light of day now though. When TL more or less bombed the news kind of dried up.

Ditto!

For me, that ending was the visual equivalent of a bad pun--Maximilian Schell ends up inside Maximilian's shell.

It was a sweet story...three years ago.

I have no strong feelings on this. They have my permission to make this - three years ago, of course - if they want. The original made no impact on me. This isn't The Italian Job here.

Maybe if they went a little more event horizon with it and gave it an R rating other than that I like the original

The original has one of the greatest scores ever written. It is the definitive music to Dante's Inferno.
