...and casting both Bruce Campbell and Joe Don Baker?

Like, how do you even screw up that badly lmao.

I like how even watching this (Congo) and having not read the book I can tell they're covering entire chapters in like a minute each.

As far as I can tell, his involvement ends at acting. Which, I mean, Bruce Campbell films are great in spite of his acting lol.

Of course, I could be wrong. I'm only a couple minutes in so maybe I just need to give it a minute.

I really wish hollyood would revisit Michael Crichton's novels. Most of the movie adaptations of his works outside of Jurassic Park and Adromeda Strain are awful.

Man I would love to see an actually good Sphere movie. Not only was it my favorite of his books, it was definitely one of his most movie-adaptable.

I was just going to say they should remake Sphere. There's so much potential for making a creepy, unsettling movie that might almost fall into the horror genre.

You know you screwed up when you have Tim Curry in your movie and you give him an incomprehensible accent. Why waste Tim Curry like that?

I don't see how someone could adapt Andromeda Strain without changing a ton. It's fine as a book but fuck is it dry.
