- AICN comes up with a blast from the past…A reviewer checks in with a very positive review of Kevin’s old, never published Six Million Dollar Man script:
The Six-Million Dollar Man by Kevin Smith- Supposedly this script was rejected by the studio because it had too much dialogue, which is a shame. If filmed, it could be the best mix of action spectacle and character drama since Face/Off. Steve Austin is constantly grappling with whether he is a weapon or a human after becoming bionic, much like that current film with the metal dude. His relationship with Oscar, a friend who opted that he become a bionic warrior after a plane crash severed 3 of his limbs, is especially moving. And the action scenes…wow. For the record, I much prefer this to Superman Lives, Smith’s other rejected genre script, which itself is decent. But this is just the film to validate those action-film geeks with brains, like us. Oh wait, I don’t have a brain. Ah shucks.
We assume the script’s still out there via the comic shows and the script outlets. So look into digging one up if ya think you’d be interested. And before you ask, we don’t think this puppy is available online anywhere.
- Want your own custom Trooper Clerks action figure? We’ve found your man. This guy creates custom figures on just about anything you can think of, and sells them at auction on ebay. Looks like a Trooper Clerk is just a Stormtrooper with just a special card, but it’s still a neat little item. Click HERE to visit the site for more.
- Finally today, here’s a new pic we haven’t seen from Dogma yet. This comes from a small piece of praise in Independent Film and Video Magazine where they mentioned the Cannes screening. It’s purplish, but that’s the way it was printed. Here ya go.
