Director Shawn Levy (the
Night at the Museum movies) must have really put some
mojo into his latest as yet unreleased
battlin' 'bots movie
Real Steel with Hugh
Jackman, as he's just been hired by Fox and producer/overlord James Cameron to take the helm of their long gestating remake of
Fantastic Voyage. Directors from Roland Emmerich to Paul
Greengrass have flirted with this remake of the beloved 1966 film about a team of scientists and their
submarine, miniaturized and injected into the body of an ailing
scientist to destroy a blood clot in his brain. God only knows how many kids in the sixties were inspired to go to medical school because of this movie!
The effects in Fantastic Voyage may seem a little dated today, but the concept was a wild one, the film forever immortalized in a scene with Raquel Welch fighting off giant attacking white corpuscles.
As the remake train continues to run amok, can Land of the Giants be very far off?
