It's going to be a movie! Maybe!

This is one story that would make a killer movie, done right.

*crosses fingers*

Though, people who've seen Dark City and The Matrix without reading it first may find it derivative.

I don't really think it was one of Heinlein's best stories, but I'd like to see what kind of movie they will make of it.

I don't see how they're going to make this into an interesting movie...

BTW, Puffy, it might be best for you to delete the last line. While it's very vague it still might tip someone off as to the nature of the twist.

I'd have to delete the link too. They allude to the twist (and influence on later stories) in the main article.

I know: Pretend I never posted this one, everybody. [Smile]

I liked the sequel better.
