Coming Soon - Asteroids: The Movie !

Remember the hours you spent playing the old video game titled Asteroids? Guess what. A movie is in the works based upon the game. I'm sorry, but the image that comes to mind is from a sequence found in National Lampoon's Vacation. Remember the conversation between Russ Griswold and his hick cousin. About how the hick cousin does not own an Atari to play Asteroids, but after his dad uses the crapper and forgets to flush the cousin can improvise his own game of 'shoot-the-evil-space-rocks'. Hollywood be scrapping the barrel...eh? ,

This movie already sounds crazed. I suppose they will get some young actor like that dude in Twilight to play the pilot that will save the Earth and have a hot young actress like....I don't know....Mylie Cyrus play his girl.

Thank Goodness for Star Trek. Although, the Abrams verse could still devolve into crud!

From You Are Dumb:

Who am I kidding; this is Hollywood. They'll probably just ditch all of Asteroids' rich mythology and just make the lead actor have unresolved issues with his father, who will inevitably be played by Jon Voight
