Remakes, Harrison Ford, Westerns, Outlander 2.?

Remake again, yes its here, and this one could be good I hope! Outland was an underachieving Sci-Fi film starring Sean Connery as a Marshall stationed on Io; Jupiters nearest moon. (I knew that astrology course would one day be of interest!) He is forced to test himself by taking on the corrupt officials in the mining colony where the action takes place.

The original trailer, not subtle but funky, love Connery scot in space accent!


The film was a thinly disguised western in space, but never really hit the mark with film fans. The rights are in place for Michael Davis to direct, an we love his work as can be seen from our brief thoughts on his film “Shoot Em up”

The new version will take place in an city in space, and will feature the same themes. Iour hero has a week to retire before the doop hit’s the fan, and already Hollywood is discussing the role with the mind to have either an aging action star in the role, or an A-list 40 to 60 year old? Willis, Stallone, erm Costner, my bet would be Clooney, he did Solaris. How about Harrison Ford? Thoughts always welcome.

Harrison Ford, did you know his film family was in danger?
The evidence is here...
