If there ever was a film that needed a remake "Logan's Run" is it. The original is a classic but looks very dated and the script is a bit ropey in places.

The original is also £3.38 from DVD Soon: https://www.dvdsoon.com/show-title-deta ... ?uid=12355

Heard of this a while ago. Bryan Singer was lined up to direct this after X-Men 3 until he signed onto Superman.

Last I heard Singer still wanted to direct it.

BTW How old are you Brad?

26. You?

LOL I wasn't old enough to see it at the cinema just on TV.

Speaking of old classics need decent releases (DVD this time): Demon Seed is an excellent 70's horror flick which has no DVD release:

Scientist Alex Harris, doing research on artificial intelligence, is working on a special kind of computer. This computer grows more and more powerful, and succeeds in raping the scientist's wife, Susan Harris. In the end she gives birth to a hybrid baby.

I'm 18. You better cherish the last four years you have before your scheduled trip on the Carousel.

This looks to be set for 2007 according to IMDB and Bryan Singer is still on board or is this out of date?

Posted: **09 May 2006, 01:53**

Last I heard, he's still doing it. But IMO it's highly likely to be put on hold again so that Singer can make a Superman Returns sequel.

Here ya go Brad.

Singer To Pass On Logan?

Superman Returns director Bryan Singer may not direct his much-anticipated remake of Logan's Run, Variety reported.

Warner Brothers and producer Joel Silver want to start shooting Logan this fall, meaning that Singer would have to shoot it and the expected sequel to this summer's Superman Returns back to back, the trade paper reported.

But Singer probably won't make an official decision about Logan's Run until after Superman Returns premieres on June 30.

If it hits, Warner plans to start shooting the sequel in the later part of 2007, with Singer again at the helm, the trade paper reported.

Even if he doesn't direct Logan's Run, Singer is still likely to play some sort of role and perhaps take a producer's credit. Silver has been developing the project for some time now, with input from Singer.

Cheers Salty + the link too, which I've just noticed. I'll set the HD Recorder for the pilot. I'll see what I think.

probably extremely dated.i remember gregory harrison as logan being particularly bland. oh well a nice bit of nostalgia anyway.

Posted: **03 Oct 2006, 19:24**

I was thinking the same. I thought I'd just record the pilot. It's annoyingly into 2 parts, the second a week later.

It's probably from syndicated masters then. For syndication in the US, shows typically get cut down by a few minutes so that they can fit in more ads and feature-length episodes are divided into multiple-parters.

Probably. If I like the first half I'll record the second but I doubt I'll watch the series. I'll probably record the second half as unless it's really, really boring I'm bound to want to know the conclusion.

I saw the first half the other night. It looks and feels exactly the same as the movie but with a smaller budget.

I'll watch the second half this Friday but after that I won't both. The film is a classic mind you; a classic that is sorely needing a remake. There was loads more in the book apparently (no surprise there).

As good as it is it's very dated.

It looked badly dated a year after it's release - Star Wars came out in 1977 and revolutionised special effects.
