It's still a rumor at this point, but Matt Damon is supposedly involved in a possible
remake of
Logan's Run.
1. The first one is one of the
finest science fiction films ever made and an influential precursor to
Star Wars. It was incredibly popular at the time of its release but has since been overshadowed by Lucas' saga.
2. Part of the charm of the original is the special effects, which include an obvious model of a city in front of a blue horizon wall. The update would use CGI and there's a good chance it won't look like it was filmed in a
shopping mall.
3. Damon's 33 and too old for the starring role. The little crystal in his hand burned out back in 2001.
