After spilling the beans about this D.C. Comics movie “Super Max”, David Goyer told Sci Fi Wire about his current ideas for the “Scanners” remake, which he is currently writing. Yes, it’s true. They’re remaking “Scanners”. Why? The hell if I know. Here’s what Goyer said about the script: “So we’ve tried to keep the spirit of that and kind of transpose that into a post-9/11 world, if you can imagine what scanners would be involved in in that kind of world. That’s what we’re attempting to do here.”

The “Scanners” remake will be directed by “Saw II” director Darren Lynn Bousman, and set for a 2008 start date.


Told him he shouldn’t have gone for Mexican food.
