Foundation - The Movie

If you call yourself a fan of science fiction than Isaac Asimov's book "FOUNDATION" is a must read. Although if you're lazy and rather watch a movie based on a book then you just have to wait a couple more years.

Sony has announced that they have bought the rights to produce the movie and will turn the reigns over to director Roland Emmerich (2012).


Foundation, an excellent book, is probably one that shouldn't be made into a movie. For one thing, time moves very rapidly and each time time moves forward we get a whole new cast of characters, with the exception of Hari Seldon who appears in videos after the first act in the book.

The plus is if the conversion from print to film is a success, there is another six books to convert, but we won't hold our breath. - GJ
