Alas the phrases "do it right" and "from the creators of the Matrix trilogy" are mutually exclusive. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :( --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/frown.gif ALT=":("><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

Well, one can hope but you're probably right. <p></p><i></i>

Read the original. <br><br>Be impressed that it was written and published when it was, and respect its stunning prescience & teaching. <br><br>Admire the limits to which the author & artist take the medium. <br><br>Adopt it fondly it as one of your personal "top ten things I'd have with me on a desert island." <br><br>Then realize the author walked off this movie project when he realized what a hollow shell they were going to perpetrate. <br><br>Sigh. I'm so disappointed...<br><br>S. <p></p><i></i>
