Seriously you guys... wishing, and hoping, and praying, and trying to be "positive" compared to us being "negative" is not going to make anything happen. Bugging the director or producer or writer or anyone involved in the project is not going to make it happen. For this thing to have been green-lit all the details were already worked out, and you can bet your asses the pitch did not involve making the main character a woman and having her rip off her clothes, drop to all fours while sweating profusely, and transform on screen with the same detail as the original movie. Any version of a script with that in it would be in the trash. It's not the 80s anymore, that stuff just doesn't fly these days, and we will never see it's like again. That's reality, the rest of us chose to accept it, that's the difference between us.
