Vanessa Redgrave as Eleanor should be amazing!

Liam Neeson, Ralph Fiennes godlike in "Titans"

There was a cheesy movie in the 80s by the same name ("Clash of the Titans") that gets a bad rap but I like it.

I still love the Robin Hood that came out at the same time as Costner's, much better (and loved Men in Tights, when Robin Hood says 'at least I speak with an English accent!). This new one might be intersting, and yes, Redgrave would be a wonderful Eleanor, tho she could read the Yellow Pages and enthrall me.

Noooo! Please tell me that Tom Cruise isn't going to do a re-make of "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid"!
