Chuckro and I were talking about Lockout, which appears to be Escape from New York in space, which seems like an excellent pitch overall. And then we were wondering what other movies might be able to be redone...In Space. The possibilities are pretty much endless.

The Little Mermaid...In Space. She's a methane breather, he crash lands on her planet, Ursula's a rogue geneticist after the kingdom's missile codes.

Beauty and the Beast...In Space. She's a scientist, he's got a horrible genetic disease, she can cure him only if she's willing to stick around for the daily injections.

Lawrence of Arabia...In Space. Mostly blowing up mining monorails on the Moon. Why the Moon? "It's clean."

Braveheart...In Space. Plucky colonists rebel against the evil corporation, leader gets gruesomely dissected by justiciar robots.

Castaway...In Space. Being an interstellar postman marooned on a deserted asteroid sucks even more, but at least Wilson the badly-programmed robot can talk back.

Chuckro's helpful suggestion? Lost...In Space.
