Ridley Scott to Make Film Based On "The Forever War"

Fox has acquired rights to Joe Haldeman's 1974 novel "The Forever War," and Ridley Scott is planning to make it into his first science fiction film since he delivered back-to-back classics with "Blade Runner" and "Alien."

I loved the book, I love the films of Ridley Scott, I have wanted him to return to science fiction for a long time.
I could not be happier.

Win,win,win.

I heard that someone (Travis Wright) is writing a screenplay for a Blade Runner sequel. And it looks like he is also writing a remake of The Warriors. Finally, someone else to hate besides Michael Bay.

A remake of the Warriors? Wowzers.

Doc, is this a book you think I'd like? Do we have it in our library?
