    The guys not looking forward to this, have obviously not picked up the book. If he puts in the same amount of sarcastic banter the book had, then this will be quite entertaining. Still, I want to see his Chicago Seven happen sometime, with Will Smith possibly starring. Or is that completely dumped?

    for some reason reading this didn't make me think of the terminator franchise, it made me think Futurama's Bender's daydreams.

    "hey sexy mama, wanna kill all humans?"

    Does the synopsis of this film sound alot like the Terminator storyline? Wasn't that what the machines in Terminator were trying to do....exterminate humans.
