If, like me, you re a humongous,' I cant' get enough of every, single thing, Ridley Scott has ever shot, freak. " You will be delighted to hear that what could possibly be the ulitimate Blade Runner might be about to go into production. 'Cos, apparently, Celluloid Dreams has acquired the rights to Philip K. Dick's science fiction masterpiece 'Ubik'. First published in 1969, Ubik's central character is Joe Chip, a technician for a telepathic organization that employs people with the ability to block certain psychic powers so they can secure other people's privacy. In the novel, the dead are kept in 'half-life,' a form of cryogenic suspension, with limited consciousness and communication ability. A mystical substance called Ubik, available in spray-can form, is the only thing stopping reality from disintegrating before Joe's eyes. It'll be hard to film, but fantastic if they get it right!" Hey... Remember the "Matrix?"

Whatever you imagined... He imagined it first!!!
