If they are going to insist on doing all these 80's remakes, someone needs to remake The Last Starfighter. I actually wouldn't mind seeing that redone with updated eye-candy.

I was j/k, of course. I read "We Can Remember It Wholesale" a few decades ago.

What, you mean like, Bladerunner, Minority Report, A Scanner Darkly? Mr Dick has not done badly on screen, all things considered.

You don't get a "comic book" mood from it?

Did you not read the part where I said I was a bit of an Arnold fan? That was the mood.
