- You know, it’s one thing to create an unnecessary and unanticipated sequel to a thirty-year-old movie that was deeply rooted in the computer technology of that time and hasn’t exactly aged well. It’s quite another to give it a title as terrible as TR2N.

- A Twitter-based e-zine? It’s an interesting idea, if nothing else. Twitter’s 140-character limit doesn’t allow for much, if any story development, so it’s no surprise a lot of the stories so far have leaned closer to being jokes. Still, it’s a paying fiction market.

Actually, the idea of a remake, update to current technology, kind of intrigues me. However, I realize that the gap between what I find interesting about it, and the actual finished film, will probably be pretty wide…
In all fairness, I have never seen the original. And I do think there could be potential in a remake or sequel.
But that title. TR2N? C’mon!
So, wait, they replaced the “O” with a “2” ? How ill33terate.
If they were going to pretend the O was a 0, then they should have called it TR1N. TR2N makes it sound like the third movie in the series.
