I sincerely hope that Starship Troopers (the RAH novel being turned into a
movie) turns out well, but from what I'm hearing, it will just involve "a lot
of guys running all over the place blowing up aliens". Needless to say, from
that description, I'm less than thrilled about its prospects. Not to mention
what they did to Puppet Masters (I'm still disappointed). With Tom Hanks
involved, hopefully Stranger will turn out well. As for Foundation, I don't
think it is possible to turn out a movie that will come close to the books. I
shall wait and see.
