Clarke's Rendezvous with Rama going Hollywood?

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the wouldn't-that-be-nice dept.

Doug writes "Arthur C Clarke's Rendezvous with Rama is being made into a movie! I first saw it at this interesting article about Pixar. And sure enough, there is a website set up for the movie! Staring Morgan Freeman and Lori McCreary. Its about a huge several kilometer long space craft passing near Earth, visited by humans who are taken across the universe. The trilogy was awesome, and I hope the movie is on par with Clarke's 2001!"

    I guess Clarke's books will never be done right*. *For those of you who do not know, Kubrick is dead.

    In Rama II, then Rama returns to Earth, this time taking some humans with it on an interstellar journey that spans the next 3 books (which degrade in quality in each subsequent book).
    I'm glad I wasn't the only person to think that.
