V?

Barring the time he pronounced Castro dead, this is probably the first time Perez Hilton gets a link here: V remake in the works? If so, I'm fucking pumped.

Think they'll just CGI all that paprika? (Jesus McFuck, I can't believe I remember that.)

Another remake? Why not just watch the original again?

Because I'm still scared of that lizard baby birth!<br /><br /> <br /><br /> (I was in something like 5th grade when the show originally aired. I remember trying to set the VCR to tape V, because I had a band recital the night of the lizard baby birth. So I ended up watching it late at night when I got home. At it scarred me!)

When I was a kid, I read the fucking <em>books.</em> The cheesy "inspired by the original series" mass paperbacks.

Jane Badler FTW.<br /><br /> <br /><br /> This would be easy to follow up on, since all of the original actors should be free.<br /><br /> <br /><br /> A smart remake of V could be very good, but I'm afraid we'll just thinly-veiled "Republicans as Nazis" references and heavy-handed speeches about how WE'RE the insurgents now.
