Coming: The Day the Earth Stood Still

It appears that there is a remake of the '51 Sci-Fi classic "The Day the Earth Stood Still" about to hit at the end of the year. I just caught a trailer on Fox. The cast looks pretty good (I think K. Reeves has come a long way since Bill & Ted) and includes Kathy Bates, Jennifer Connelly and John Cleese. Reeves plays Klaatu. Should be interesting to see the new Gort too. The effects look quite stupendous, which you would expect of any modern sci-fi flick. The original is one of my favourite movies of all time, along wth other 1950's stablemates like Forbidden Planet.
