Thanks for the info, but since it is a SyFy production, I doubt it will do Clark's book justice. I don't waste my time with the lame programming on the SyFy channel anymore.

Please, sharknado, giant snakes vs giant alligators, gigantor insects popping up in the most unlikely places? And then there is the weak acting, direction, and production values.

If I want to watch corny implausible sci-fi scenarios, I'll watch re-runs of old sci-fi movies.

So what did you think of "Knowing", "Oblivion", and "Edge of Tomorrow"? I thought they were excellent adaptations.

Am I the only one who thought Sandra Bullock’s “Gravity” was boring? Okay, the re-entry was fun, but her and Clooney floating around in space was a snoozefest, although well done special affects. They couldn’t have use an aircraft to simulate no gravity for that length of the movie. Apollo 13 actors did.
