CMS Author Craig Vecchione Posted November 13, 2008 CMS Author Share Posted November 13, 2008 Hard to believe they're remaking this movie and putting Keanu in the starring role *Whoa!*. I think it was Milton Berle who was quoted as saying, "Everything decent has already been done" regarding tv and movies. That was in the 1950's....

It was shot in Vancouver and a few friends worked on it. Jennifer Connelly has the female lead, my best friends wife styled her hair for it and was her stand in the rest of the time.

Yea, then he could save the world by uploading a virus into an alien spaceship using his Apple PowerBook. Who knew aliens used TCP/IP? Oh wait, wrong movie...

They travel millions of lightyears to conquer our planet, have indestructible force fields, awesome Tie-style fighters, and are stuck with a... dial-up connection? {censored}.

I don't think it's entirely different, they modernized it for today's world. The threat/message isn't that of aliens living amoung us with Cold War tie ins, it's aliens living amoung us with other subject matter that relates to society today.

I'm avoiding the trailers. Keanu "whoah" Reeves starring in it is bad enough, but he's offset by Jennifer Connelly. I really love the original, I have a scene from the original tattooed in my backpiece and it will kill me if they butcher it. So I go into it with great caution and reservation.
