		<description><![CDATA[20th Century Fox, the studio behind this Friday&#8217;s &#8220;The Day The Earth Stood Still&#8221; remake is so sure about the awesomeness of their remake that they&#8217;re beaming the movie into outer space for aliens to see. No, I shit you not. They are beaming the movie out into outer space. Obviously this is a sad, sad publicity ploy for a movie that has been bashed up and down, side to side, and in and out by the fanboy base on the Internet for being, well, pandering and just downright sucky. I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;ve read a single decent review for this thing, which isn&#8217;t a surprise. It&#8217;s a totally unnecessary remake of a classic where the main storyline has been changed because Hollywood is currently so in love with itself for &#8220;battling&#8221; Global Warming that it&#8217;s back is sore from all the back slapping it&#8217;s doing.
And so, this from IO9, a transcript of a red carpet interview with the film&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Behold, the wonders of a wooden Keanu Reeves as he plays the role he was born to play &#8212; an alien humanoid devoid of personality! Marvel at the crappiness of a totally CGI Gort as he shoots laser beams out of his cyclop eye at attacking fighter jets! Wonder at the inherent fascism of alien beings that threatens to destroy the human race if we don&#8217;t conform to their beliefs and pick up our garbage! Yes, ladies and gentlemen, here&#8217;s a 5-minute trailer for the upcoming &#8220;The Day the Earth Stood Still&#8221; remake, which, if nothing else, really brings the point home that environmentalists can be fascist douche bags sometimes.
Aliens land on Earth with a message for all humans &#8211; live in peace or be destroyed. Starring Keanu Reeves and Jennifer Connelly in the sci-fi remake of the 1951 classic film. Directed by Scott Derrickson.
Trailer makes me wanna go out and litter&#8230;

		<description><![CDATA[Two new images from Scott Derrickson&#8217;s remake of &#8220;The Day the Earth Stood Still&#8221; have arrived online. The most curious image is the one with stars Keanu Reeves and Jennifer Connelly. What you have here is the incredibly expressive Connelly with the incredibly stilted Reeves. The difference, on the big screen, should be worth a nice laugh or two. And hey, maybe they won&#8217;t get as heavy handed with the whole &#8220;global warming is going to destroy us all!&#8221; message that we&#8217;ve been hearing rumors about. Probably not, though.
Anyways, new images.

		<description><![CDATA[Who knows if Keanu Reeves and director Scott Derrickson&#8217;s remake of the 1951 classic &#8220;The Day the Earth Stood Still&#8221; will connect with audiences or make them leave the theater groaning in despair &#8212; no, not because of the movie&#8217;s contemporary message about global warming, but that they just spent another $10 watching Keanu Reeves play a stiff, barely humanoid alien. Doesn&#8217;t he play that in every movie? But I digress. Two new posters from the movie have showed up online.

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s your first look at Keanu Reeves as the alien Klaatu in the upcoming &#8220;The Day the Earth Stood Still&#8221; remake. You remember, the one where they&#8217;ve swapped Global Warming hysteria for Nuke Hysteria? Yeah, that one. And yes, it&#8217;s just a single picture of Reeves in a suit, which could be from anything, but according to site Film1.nl, it is indeed Reeves as Klaatu from the remake. 
The remake stars Reeves and Jennifer Connelly, and is directed by Scott Derrickson. 
Keanu looks serious. Then again, I would be too if I was concern about Global Warming. I mean, gosh, if we don&#8217;t stop it now, we&#8217;re all going to drown in, like, two years or something. At least that&#8217;s what Al Gore tells me.
Which reminds me, I&#8217;m late for my swimming lessons at the Y&#8230;

Update: 7/3/08
Here&#8217;s the first trailer for the movie!

		<description><![CDATA[Let&#8217;s face it, Hollywood&#8217;s attempt to turn the classic &#8220;The Day the Earth Stood Still&#8221; into another pointless, preachy movie about the environment has already turned off a lot of people. It&#8217;s bad enough that Keanu Reeves is expected to emote in this movie, but add to it the insulting nature of being preached to by a movie made on a bloated budget, by a community obsessed with its own excesses, and it almost makes you want to throw something at the screen. Having said that, here&#8217;s the first teaser poster for the movie, which claims a release date of December 2008, a year earlier than anyone had expected.
From the poster below, you pretty much know that all the things we&#8217;ve been hearing about the movie, especially that early script review, was right on. This thing is going to be hitting you over the head with a sledgehammer about saving the environment, global warming, etc.
Man, what a waste of Jennifer [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Uh oh. It looks like someone from Aint-it-cool-News, or someone who regularly writes for them, has gotten their hands on the script for the upcoming &#8220;The Day the Earth Stood Still&#8221; remake. As you&#8217;ll recall, Keanu Reeves let the cat out of the bag a few weeks back when he told MTV that the new version will involve Global Warming instead of nuclear annihilation, which as you might expect, made me think this movie was gonna suck because of that pandering crap. Now according to the script review &#8212; yup, it&#8217;s gonna suck because it just, well, plain sucks, apparently. 
In short, what AICN&#8217;s reviewer says is, yes, Global Warming is now the cause instead of Nuclear Annihilation, Gort has been replaced by something called &#8220;The Totem&#8221; that can, er, transform into a totem and shoot things, and the famous words, &#8220;Klaatu Barada Nicto&#8221; is never uttered in the movie. 
Head on over to AICN to read the script review, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You knew it had to happen, and in the back of you mind, you even suspected. Yes, it&#8217;s true, the upcoming remake of &#8220;The Day the Earth Stood Still&#8221; will throw away the &#8220;end violence&#8221; message of the 1951 original, and instead exchange it with a &#8220;get green&#8221; message of today. I guess in a way I sort of knew this was going to happen. It&#8217;s Hollywood, after all, and &#8220;going green&#8221; is the cause du jour of the last few years. They&#8217;ll keep pumping the same message until something more sexy comes along.
More:
Fifty years later and Klaatu has a new message for humanity, but one with equally dire consequences should we choose to ignore it, Keanu Reeves, who is playing the alien in Scott Derrickson’s upcoming remake, told MTV News.
“The first one was borne out of the cold war and nuclear détente. Klaatu came and was saying cease and desist with your violence. If you can’t do it yourselves [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Keanu Reeve&#8217;s remake of &#8220;The Day the Earth Stood Still&#8221; continues to add to its cast. The latest addition will make all the Battlestar Galactica fans out there happy, because Aaron Douglas (aka the chief monkey wrench on the Galactica) has joined the cast. No word on what character he&#8217;ll be playing.
Douglas joins a cast that already includes leads Keanu Reeves and Jennifer Connelly, as well as Jaden Smith, Jon Hamm, John Cleese, and Lorena Gale. The remake will be directed by &#8220;The Exorcism of Emily Rose&#8217;s&#8221; Scott Derrikson.
In the 1951 original, an alien name Klaatu and his mighty robot Gort land their spacecraft on Cold War-era Earth just after the end of World War II. They bring an important message to the planet that Klaatu wishes to tell to representatives of all nations. However, communication turns out to be difficult, so, after learning something about the natives, Klaatu decides on an alternative approach.
The remake, presumably, will follow the plot [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Keanu Reeves and Jennifer Connelly, stars of the upcoming &#8220;The Day the Earth Stood Still&#8221; remake, is getting a precocious 8-year old &#8212; Jaden Smith, son of Will Smith, last seen pandering for Oscar votes in the elder Smith&#8217;s &#8220;The Pursuit of Happyness&#8221;.
More:
Smith will play the rebellious Jacob, the 8-year-old stepson of scientist Helen Benson (Jennifer Connelly) who first makes contact with the humanoid alien Klaatu (Keanu Reeves). 
David Scarpa penned the screenplay about Klaatu&#8217;s arrival on Earth that triggers a global upheaval as governments and scientists race to unravel the mystery behind his appearance.
Smith&#8217;s Jacob and stepmother Helen get caught up in Klaatu&#8217;s mission, coming to understand the ramifications of his being a self-described &#8220;friend to the Earth.&#8221;
Scott Derrickson (&#8221;The Exorcism of Emily Rose&#8221;) is directing, with filming already begun in Vancouver.

		<description><![CDATA[In case you haven&#8217;t heard, Hollywood is remaking a contemporary version of the 1951 sci-fi classic &#8220;The Day the Earth Stood Still&#8221;. The remake was announced a while back, and would star Keanu Reeves and Jennifer Connelly, and would be directed by Scott Derrickson (&#8221;The Exorcism of Emily Rose&#8221;). Now Reuters reports that Jon Hamm, of the AMC TV series Mad Men, has joined the cast.
More:
Hamm will play a NASA official who recruits Connelly&#8217;s character for the scientific team investigating an alien&#8217;s arrival on Earth. Reeves plays the alien, who has a simple message: Live in peace or be destroyed.
Hamm is up for a Golden Globe as lead actor in a drama for his role on AMC&#8217;s &#8220;Mad Men,&#8221; which is set in the New York advertising world of the 1960s. The show also earned a nomination for drama series.
Principal photography on the remake has already begun earlier this month in Vancouver, Canada.
