This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Well the last one (or is it two now) was mostly miss with a few hits. I'm not holding much hope for a re-re-re-boot.

The 1980s reboot was decent, I thought, but the one with Forrest Whitaker was pretty meh.

That was because Harlan Ellison was the creative consultant for the 1980s reboot.

I saw hamfisted nods to both "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet" and "It's A Good Life" from the original series.

It sounds like the plan is to "reboot" the original episodes since nobody in Hollywood dares have an original idea.
