  2. Re:Remake of the pilot? by Blackbrain · · Score: 5, Informative

    I was lucky enough to see one of the previews and can can safely say that the movie in NOT a remake of the pilot. The story stands on it's own. There is a nice introduction to bring people who have not seen the series up to speed and plenty of new material for the fans. The movie also wraps-up a number of story lines left dangling after the series was canceled.

    Considering the craptastic movies that have been released this year, it may turn out to be the best movie of the summer.

    Where would we be if Wheel had hid her round rock in a cave instead of showing everyone how it rolls?
