Solaris and hardcore science fiction

[AndyC]

Cube is a great movie. Not sure whether it's science fiction or not. There are so many ways to interpret it.

Speaking of science fiction, I wish that this was all just a fever dream, but:

Will Smith to star in "I, Robot"

>Will Smith to star in "I, Robot"

Why are they using the name if they're not using the stories? Better to film The Caves of Steel or The Naked Sun.

I am curious to see this film. I may go tomorrow and check it out. It was anticipated for such a long while, that I think people actually forgot about it, thus the low impact in box office $. People are fragile creatures who go see movies that were pitched, written, filmed, and theatrically released within the same five month period. They have a hard time remembering things from two weeks ago let alone a film that has been talked about for years...

 Actually, I think you'd be hard-pressed to find anyone outside the SF community who had even heard of Solaris before they started playing the ads.
