No Fantastic Voyage for Dean

[F13 (F13)]

Producer Dean Devlin (Independence Day) told <A HREF="http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire/" TARGET="_top">SCI FI Wire</A> that he won't be developing an update of the 1966 SF movie Fantastic Voyage, but that filmmaker James Cameron will direct it for 20th Century Fox. "Cameron is doing Fantastic Voyage now," Devlin said in an interview. "Unfortunately for us, but I think he's going to do a great job. It's one of those things, if anyone is going to do a project you wanted to do, you'd rather it be [him]. If it's Cameron, [Steven] Spielberg, [Robert] Zemeckis, you kind of go, 'OK, fine!'" <BR> <BR>Over the years, the writing team of Glen Morgan and James Wong, Atlantis: The Lost Empire writer Tab Murphy, Ted Tannenbaum (adapter of the Dark Horse Comics title The Lords of Misrule), Roland Emmerich and Devlin have all taken a pass at a Fantastic Voyage script. At one point, a rumor floated that Emmerich and Devlin would combine the plots of Voyage and a sequel to Independence Day, with a group of scientists descending into the body of the president of the United States to root out micro-alien invaders.

Wayne Posted and I snipped from the post... <BR> <BR>"with a group of scientists descending into the body of the president of the United States to root out micro-alien invaders." <BR> <BR>Okay, now, think about this, what would they find in Bush's brain? :P <BR> <BR>Chris <BR>The FOX plant

[This moment is so much bigger than (F_U_N_G_U_S)]

Um, duh. No more political crap. Too much of it. <BR> <BR>He meant Bill Pullman's president character. The thought was when the alien 'invaded' his mind, he also left something behind in the presidents body, which would lead to the "Fantastic Voyage" stoff...

[Sheri Gordon (Sheri)]

He knows a little too much. Sure ya ain't the Alien, fungie-boy? heehee <BR> <BR>As for Bush, well, we won't go there. ;-)

[Chris Ceraolo (Chris)]

[Sheri Gordon (Sheri)]

[Will Finch (Shetan)]

His power came from some great reservoir of spiritual life else it could not have been so universal and potent, but the majesty and beauty of the language with which he clothed it were all his own....Claude Bragdon

[We need an eighth day called (F_U_N_G_U_S)]

Sheri, I go for weeks (literally) w/o seeing a tv set. I watch less than 10 hours of TV a month. <BR> <BR>And only eskimos and leprechauns live in igloos, everybody knows that, pbt~~~~

[Sheri Gordon (Sheri)]

Well, those 10 hours a month must have a long lingering effect on one's brain. >:-P

[Tina (Trina)]

[Sheri Gordon (Sheri)]

Nah, we's just like siblings. <BR> <BR>MOOOOM, he's picking on me! <BR> <BR>>:-P

...and boredom, and procrastination (a site that would take no more than a week to do, has been going since mid December, and it's not my fault :] Not Sheri's either, for that matter, but still... :]

[Sheri Gordon (Sheri)]

Such is real life. <IMG SRC="http://www.electric-ent.com/bbs/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":)">

[We need an eighth day called (F_U_N_G_U_S)]

[Sheri Gordon (Sheri)]

Yeah, but since the 70's are currently in style, the 80s are bound to be next, in which case, Rick is ahead of his time. <IMG SRC="http://www.electric-ent.com/bbs/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":)"> We just ain't caught up to him yet.

[Right behind Uranus is Planet (F_U_N_G_U_S)]

Sheri, it's too late for me to stop the 70's Preservation Society, but there's no way in heck I'm gonna let them start up an 80's Preservation Society! <BR> <BR>Besides, who would run it? A bunch of unemployed, balding yuppies?

[Rick Santillo (Rjs)]

But Fungul one, I totaly thought we were like talking about valley girls, ya know? <BR> <BR>Oh Sheri all alone hold on.....ooops, sorry, I just heard that Steve Perry song. I'm not ahead of the times, believe me.

[Sheri Gordon (Sheri)]

'tis true, good sir Rick, but thou, being oui, thinkest that thy girls of the valley doth not speaketh in terms of 'gageth me with a spooneth', as thy homeboys doth concure.

[Rick Santillo (Rjs)]

Sheri: <BR>Yes I am calling out another's name. Sorry hun. <BR>We hit 91 yesterday, ahhhhh my kind of weather. <BR> <BR>Mark: <BR>You are one righteous duuuuude.

[Tina (Trina)]

Hey you, all of you... I didn't mean you should go THAT far... it happened exactly what I said... ;-) <BR> <BR>Ah - but, please... no explanations needed... ;-)

[Will Finch (Shetan)]

Trina, just call Fungus one Narly Righteous Dewd, he'll get your drift and prolly know exactly what you mean. :-)

[Right behind Uranus is Planet (F_U_N_G_U_S)]

[Tina (Trina)]

What? ;-))

[Will Finch (Shetan)]

Trina, they're just little silly sayings that seem to originate on the West coast of the US, and migrate slowly in oh say 5-10 years all the way to the east coast.
