LOL Dave, the story is only beginning in the first book and its only about an inch thick...the other three are about 4 inches thick. You still have to read "rama 2", "the garden of rama" and "rama revealed". Man i envy you, i love scifi books and that series was the best.
You better get to it :) Andy. |

TV sci fi is far better than almost anything in that genre at the cinemas these days anyways. If I have a prediction, I think World War II movies are going to mke a come back, but stupid gung-ho "Where Eagles Dare" type movies rather than "The Thin Red Line"/"Saving Private Ryan" variety. |
Yeah iv been waiting for about 5 years since i heard about rama, thing is though if they approached it from a story based point of view rather than the space scifi one it could do really well like Aliens for example, its in space but they don't make a big deal out of it. The concept would be a great story, they may not have had the technology to make a film like rama untill now. I aint holdin my breath but im hopefull.
As for your prediction there is the remake of the Dam Busters that Peter Jackson is making, im not too sure its gonna go down well though, there are a lot of fans of the origional. Andy. |
I was just talking about Rama yesterday with my friends. Morgan Freeman wanted Fincher to direct, with mo-cap used (before mo-cap was taken seriously).

So yes, we are for real, lol. |
So, is this fiction along the same lines as the Da Vinci code? I loved how the Catholic church felt the need to denounce it as being 'full of lies'. Some of us thought that's what 'fiction' meant. :)
I have to say that I've seen many an excellent book told truly, and been completely bored by the movie. I think that far more important is capturing the audience's attention, telling a story to capture the hearts and minds. I think part of that comes down to it being a story that captures the audio/visual artists retelling the story. And I really just wanted to bring up that fact about the Da Vinci Code. I was amused endlessly by that. :D Carl |
No, it's fiction along the same lines as Cold Mountain.
|
and yet if zemeckis was so faithful to the source material in all its 'historical' context, the immediacy of the story would have been deflated. some parts historic, but i believe it is mostly entertainment =).
