Place my body on a ship and burn it on the sea,
Let my spirit rise, Valkiries carry me.
Take me to Valhalla where my brothers wait for me.
Fires burn into the sky, my spirit will never die.

Regarding THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL, that's one sci-fi classic I hope they DON'T remake. That movie has aged like wine into a perfect bit of sci-fi. It's aqctually more powerful 50 years later. That movie is probably the first sci-fi "classic".
I'd consider it blasphemous if they ever did remake it.

"We have five million Cybermen. How many are you?"
"Four"
You would destroy the Cybermen with four Daleks?"
"We would destroy the Cybermen with ONE Dalek. You are superior in only one respect."
"What is that?"
"You are better at dying."
Trash talk between a Cyberman and a Dalek. It doesn't get any better than that.

Agreed. Some things you don't touch.
You know what's nice? Spiffy suits. Mind games. Numbers. Who needs names anyway? I for one would love to see the modern Rover. Can I add The Prisoner?

Chris Nolan is planning on doing a remake of "The Prisoner" after doing "The Dark Knight", so wish granted.
I am not a number. I am a free man.

Is it sacriligious to ask for a remake of Tron? Hey if poeple want Logans Run then I want a new Tron (but still with a good story line) Love the original but I can imagine with today's cgi what they could do with the bikes, and all the internal cities. One thing I was always dissapointed in was the look of the main computer (but it was the 80's and the tech was new)
And since I'm bringing it up one show that had possibilities (but was badly casted and handled) came after Tron came out called Automan. I watched it, despite the cheese (and Dezi Arnez.) Like I said the concept was good, it just needs an update. And the guy who played Automan was cuuuute.
How about Manimal. Anybody?
I second Buck Rodgers. They're playing the 80's classic on Space and I can't watch without laughing now.
I think with the right cast and crew The Incredible Hulk can be done. A fave of mine I rarely missed. "You don't want me to see me angry."
Greatest American Hero anybody? (with Alan playing the hero of course
)
Oooh, one I watched from the beggining until it went downhill Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future. That show broke my heart in a lot of ways.
If they got the right people, the right writers, I would love to see V redone. It got so bad and cliche in the end I stopped watching.
Maybe a REVISE of Max Headroom. I know Matt frewer is older and is playing in my new favorite show Eureka, but maybe a movie of the week. I'd love to see that plastic headed computer geek again.
There's a lot more that I can't think of right now, but with the way Hollywoods looking through the vauts for ideas, those are some I'd love to see them attempt. With the right people of course.
If I'm a bitch, then life just got interesting

I think Buck Rogers could be redone really well, but Twiggy would have to be more of a badass, and not comic relief.
How about V or Alien Nation? Either one of those could be redone and improved.

Quark. About space garbage collectors. Was supposed to be a comedy...
Not enough Sci-fi comedies nowadays.

Sounds like a show I vaguley remember called "Far Out Space Nuts", featuring Bob Denver of Gilligan's Island and another guy who kind of looked like the skipper. They were supposed to be preparing for a rocket launch and loading the supplies. The skipper type dude says "Dinner" and Denver loads the dinner. He says breakfast, and Denver loads the breakfast. He says "Lunch", but Denver thinks he says "Launch", and hits a button and the rocket takes off and they get lost in space. A wierd sci-fi comedy from the 70's where the writers had to be on something!
