Film School Rejects: Ridley Scott’s Return to Sci-Fi Will Be a ‘Forever War’

    I wonder how plans for this might get sidetracked if BODY OF LIES tanks as badly as it appears it is going to. Hope NOTTINGHAM hits it out of the park.

    They won't. It's Ridley Scott. Besides, he's got his own company behind it, and I'm Fox is comfortable making another Ridley Scott movie. He's established more concretely than one bad show at the box office.

    I'm just glad Scott is staving his desire to direct a new sci-fi project that is not Blade Runner 2. Perhaps Forever War will be the Blade Runner of the 21st century - lofty expectations, I know, but I think cautious optimism can be safe when it's Ridley Scott at the helm.

    I've read "Forever War" and its a really cool book with the potential to be a really great film or two.

    The thing about "Body of Lies" is that in theory, it had it all there: Leo DiCaprio, Russell Crowe, an interesting storyline, an amazing director...and it just wasn't good. It wasn't memorable. Definitely Scott's worst film.

    by reading on Wikipedia about the storyline, seems to be one of the movies we're all waiting for -space ships, galactic battles, far away future!!!

    I've been quite bothered by the lack of great sci-fi films as of late, Blade Runner is a classic and if Scott can capture atleast half of that greatness again it will be something very special.
