Wonder how long till an E.T. remake......

I thought they already did-

Remake E.T. or rather redid some of the special effects and released a 20 year anniversary edition.

I guess hollywood has run out of Ideas....

What Next- Brad Pitt in "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington" but hopefully they will not try to remake "Gone With The Wind"

Ok, so maybe I didn't say every single syllable! :D

Man, I can't wait to see this remake actually. TDTESS is one of my favorite movies!

There was just a 10 minute preview on Fox (yes, the TV station) that's got me incredibly more hyped up for this movie!

Saw it here, forgot to post it:

Should be on the Internet (YouTube or otherwise) fairly soon.... looked amazing though.

Cheers for heads up, I wondered when there would be news about this!

From the 10 minutes I saw... I'm not expecting any fail.

I said fail originally this was before all the hype and I saw some footage last week at the UK National Movie Awards and it looks promising so I agree with Ayepecks here.

It is much harder to show an attack on Earth that spans the entire planet without literally showing the entire earth being attacked. The point of these movies is to assume that the rest of the world is undergoing similar experiences. Not to mention attacking one of THE largest cities in the world with the most dense population in the United States is probably what a race taking over a planet would do. Wipe out the centers then clean up the stragglers. Thats how it was supposed to work in Independence day as well as War of the Worlds.

I saw an extended preview trailer for this over the weekend, and it looks awesome. The CGI alone is pretty sweet, but it looks like the story is all there too, which is good. I'm looking forward to it.

This looks pretty sweet at this point. But no matter what movie, this one included, I will only ever think of Keanu Reeves as Neo now. Damn Matrix movies.

And they better at some point in the movie say that famous line, or they will be riots! (well maybe not)

Oh and it was nice to finally (sorta) see Gort.

I don't see the extended anywhere. All I see are a few articles here and there.

EDIT: Found something on YouTube.

I want him to create a sequel to Constantine!

I recently saw Constantine and Street Kings, two movies that star Keanu Reeves. I loved 'em both and I know I'll love this movie. The trailer looked amazing. Is the 10 minute preview up on YouTube yet? I'm anxious to see it. That, and the extended preview.

    • ALL versions or ALL SUPPORTED versions? Neowin does it again.
    • But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.
    • Hello, Bonjour is Apple's implementation of a multicast-DNS service, which allows devices running Apple's software and/or hardware to find each other on your local network.  I believe the Windows version was last updated around 2010. If you do not need it, you can stop and disable the Bonjour service in the Services Control Manager (filename: SERVICES.MSC).  Once you have done that, the operating system will no longer attempt to load the service.

    • This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600 by Sayan Sen With the memory shortage that's prevalent nowadays, discounts are super-hard to get. As such we post good deals whenever they pop up. Recently, we covered a few great discounts on SSDs wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup NVMe PCIe Gen4 drive for just $400 thanks to a special coupon. If you want a faster product but don't need all that capacity, you can also opt for Samsung's 990 PRO 2TB that is on sale for its lowest price in over three months. Let's say though that you are on the hunt for a 1440p gaming card. In that case AMD's RX 9070 non-XT can help, and with its 16GB VRAM, you can also run AI models locally without worrying about bottlenecking (check out our recent 9070 GRE reviews for gaming and productivity to get an idea). The PowerColor Reaper variant of the RX 9070 is currently on sale for just $580 which is a very good price in the current state of affairs (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Reaper cooler on this 9070 uses a triple‑fan design with ring‑blade fans, paired with premium dual ball bearings to extend lifespan and reduce friction. "Intelligent" fan control allows the fans to remain idle at lower temperatures, only spinning up when the GPU is under load. A nickel‑plated copper base makes direct contact with both the GPU and memory modules, helping to spread heat evenly. PowerColor also applies Honeywell PTM7950 phase‑change thermal interface material (TIM), which fills microscopic gaps between the die and heatsink for more efficient thermal transfer. The fan shroud is shorter in height as the firm has made it such that it can be used in certain SFF (small form factor) cases. The technical specifications of the Reaper RX 9070 are given in the table below: Specification Value Stream Processors 3584 Units Video Memory 16GB GDDR6 Memory Speed 20.0 Gbps Memory Interface 256-bit Engine Clock Game Clock: up to 2070 MHz Boost Clock: up to 2520 MHz Bus Standard PCI Express 5.0 x16 Display Connectors 1 x HDMI 2.1b, 3 x DisplayPort 2.1a Maximum Resolution DisplayPort: 7680 × 4320 HDMI: 7680 × 4320 Board Dimensions 289mm × 111mm × 41mm 304mm × 127mm × 42mm (with bracket) Slot 2 Minimum System Power Requirement 600W Power Connectors Two 8-pin PCI Express Get the PowerColor Reaper RX 9070 at the links below (you get only a 90-day warranty on Woot): PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $579.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $700) PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $559.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.
