I did exactly the same thing.

I can't believe they're making THAT before they make "CandyLand". I am offended.

Also, your icon is made of win.

Well, I'm happy as long as they don't have "Scrabble" over to George Lucas - He'll ruin it with tons of CG and greenscreen!

Yeah. I saw the DOOM picture yesterday and was like "I *need* to swipe that to use as a LJ icon"

i'm not sure if that's better or worse than the wave of remakes that seems to be continuing.

Well the Clue movie was great... I doubt the same from here

You missed the best bit: (He) plans on giving it a futuristic sheen along the lines of his famed 1982 feature "Blade Runner".

I still think that this has to be a joke.

Then again, I guess Hasbro might have offered Scott a LOT of money.

I'm sure that there will be a deluxe movie edition of the game to follow.
