well, that's not as bad I as I feared. At least we avoided the rumored Jim Carrey comedy version.

An OSI spy with a Jersey accent? That's different. Well, at least they're making it a serious endeavor. I'll certainly look at it, but to me Lee Majors made that original series work. His personality and charm transcended the concept and gave the show it's enduring legacy.

Considering the casting of some recent comicbook movies of late, they could've done a lot worse than Marky Mark.

Here's hoping Richard Anderson says the famous.... "Gentleman, we can rebuild him"

Six billion ohh lawd. I know inflation but 1000x since the 70's. Bionic lambs are worse than carded wgsh and college tuition combined.

Must we have yet another remake? Not hating on the casting choice, I like Wahlberg for the most part but dang, I am so tired of the same old things just being rehashed. So for me I'll just stick with the original hash. Plus the way the net is you find out pretty much everything there is to know about a movie before it ever comes out so to watch it is far from an exciting, thrill a minute, on the edge of your seat adventure. Especially for $10+ each person at the box office and then another mortgage payment at concession.

OMG I'm officially a fuddy duddy. Damn it.

I predict this will go over like a lead balloon. Remember The Bionic Woman TV remake? I mean, really Hollywood, lightning doesn't strike twice. I really wish they'd get some writers w/ some imaginations who can make up their own stuff that can be iconic someday, instead latching onto everything that was cool about the 70s, and trying to re-create it in their own image. And Jim, save some rocking space on the porch for a fellow Fuddy Duddy!
