Speaking of Jeff Bridges , I wrote an unsolicited script for a Starman sequel back in 1998. It was my first script and I quit college to finish it. It’s been gathering dust ever since. I sent it to Jeff Bridges and John carpenter, although I would prefer if Carpenter didn’t direct a sequel. I wrote some good f/x sequences and some interesting characters. I’m pretty sure I’ll never be involved, but I’d to see the f/x scene from the beach being incorporated, (Jeff’s manager Neil will know the one, totally plagiarised from another movie, but it would look great on film today). If anyone has any questions, email me at hansenfilm@yahoo.ie and I’ll answer them. (Although I won’t give away any plot points. And yes there is a son and indeed, I actually have the perfect casting suggestion!!

I don’t like the idea. It’s the same as remaking the original ‘Highlander’ movie. It’s nearly blasphemy and merely an excuse for them to bust out some big fancy CGI effects to say “Look how much better ours is than the original! Look how incredibly sophisticated we are.” Tron was cutting edge in it’s day. It is a classic that doesn’t need to be pimped out just so geeks can make bigger explosions. And no matter how many fancy computers you use to try and ‘improve’ on it, some things are sacrosanct.
