Strategic Air Command is another I'd like to see, but it would be impossible to make unless it was total CGI.


Not impossible. Models. I'm not kiddin.. a 1/4 scale turbine powered models are utterly convincing.

Models could be used.

But it wouldn't be the same.

Ok heres another one.

I'd like to see "Jurassic Park"
Remade to more closely follow the book
Death is no easy answer
For those who wish to know
Ask those who have been before you
What fate the future holds
It ain't pretty

They used a lot of models in "Empire of the Sun".  Couldn't really tell the difference.

In 'Aviator' they used models and CGI.. the models looked real. The CGI scenes looked.. CGI.

Skuzzy does Dallas!


I'd pay to see that one!





Anyway.  I'd pay to see "Starship Troopers" done.  Note how I did not say 'remade.'  The first movie doesn't count because it missed the mark by too far.

The TV show is closer, however it was a kids show and just couldn't show how brutal the war was.  (It was a really well made show though).

Only if they used Dina Meyer in it again, that girl is beyond hot.
