I'll keep an open mind. Harrison Ford to reprise his role as Decker. Ridley Scott will produce. Denis Villeneuve is to direct. I think he's a great director, but mostly of dramas, not sci-fi action movies; he has never tackled a project quite like this.

I'm having a bit of trouble with that because I'm having trouble trying to figure out

(a) how that movie needs / can have a sequel (that isn't COMPLETELY stupid)

and

(b) how one might think they can improve upon a Philip K. Dick story.

Geez, guys (Scott, et al), not everything needs to be a franchise.

All I'm saying is that Scott had better not hire the shmuck that killed Prometheus to write it.

With the combined disappointments of Indiana Jones & The Space Aliens & Prometheous I am not going to let myself get as excited about this as I would like to be.

I won't. This movie doesn't even exist and never will, as far as I'm concerned.

I was excited... until I read this. Oh, well. We'll see.

harrison ford should retire. He hasn't been good in any of his recent movies.

He was just in a plane crash. His face is all f**ked up now.

I seem to remember Mark Hamill being in an accident and picking up some facial scars before Empire Strikes Back and it being worked into the movie. Maybe they'll do the same this time and have Han Solo saved by Luke from a space yeti.
