It's an age-old question: How far down does it go? There was a Daredevil comic in the mid-'60s where one of his enemies got hit by a shrinking ray and kept getting smaller and smaller until *poof* he was gone.

That stuck with me.

Take a number and divide it by two. Take that number and divide it by two. Continue dividing by two. Call me when you get to the end, lol.

What's the old indian saying? It's turtles all the way down.

‘The Incredible Shrinking Man’ Is Getting A Remake.

MGM announced today (February 13th, 2013), that they had purchased the rights to the classic science-fiction novel The Shrinking Man by Richard Matheson for a planned film adaptation—making it an ostensible reboot/ remake of The Incredible Shrinking Man, the 1957 classic sci-fi film that also adapted the novel.

According to /Film, Universal had previously owned the rights to the story “for decades,” and until recently had planned to have Brett Ratner direct Eddie Murphy in a comedic remake in which Murphy would have played a magician who shrinks due to magic, which is pretty much the worst idea in the world ever.

Now that the rights have lapsed and MGM has snapped them up, the film studio has even managed to hire Richard Matheson himself, now 86 years old, to write the script with his son, Richard Matheson, Jr.
