Guy, ever see the movie Westworld from the 1970s? Mr. Green It was "Disney-like" in that guests went to this ultra theme park out in the middle of nowhere and ALL the people they interacted with were human-like robots. They were like free-standing, fully moving, AI audio animatronics.

And of course, it all goes wrong. Shocked You should look for it, having said that. Haha.

I had no idea this was a Michael Crichton movie. Which explains why I ALMOST like it. Which is the standard for me for MC movies. I think he has a real problem with "endings". Love his movies/books, and without exception (that I can think of) I hate the endings.

Michael Crichton! I never knew that either! :lol: Makes sense though, thinking of the story and the types of plots he schemes up. Huh!

A re-make... wow, I'd have to see that. I think the original was terrifying enough when the Gunslinger is tracking the live guy through the "utilidor." Be interesting to see how its done with modern cinema and storytelling.
