Every few years it comes up, and someone mentions it's still being planned. It's apparently doomed to be stuck in development hell forever. The real irony is, it's based on a book, and the book was part of a series. So if they did remake it and the remake did well enough, it could jumpstart a new franchise (which is what studios today have wet dreams about). They've got at least four books and a bunch of short stories/comic books they could adapt, so someone could even spin it off into a TV show on something like HBO or Netflix (though the last time they tried to turn it into a TV show, it tanked). I have an almost knee-jerk reaction to remakes and spin-offs, as I've stated before, but Logan's Run is one I've always stood by as deserving a remake. It simply hasn't aged well at all (you can see SPFX charge wires even in the cave scenes), and the sci-fi concepts are super shallow. It could really be spruced up. --- PotD's resident Film Expert. <cite>CyborgSage00x0 posted [p:943535561] in 28 Geeks L...
