Okay, I just read this a minute ago on Fandango (and Fandango is a pretty credible source for all things movies):

Do you remember the TV show V from the early 80’s? I was just a kid, but I loved this show! Reptile-like aliens come to Earth and disguise themselves in waxy-looking human skin, all the while trying to take over the planet! And — ewww — when they would peel off that fake skin and you could see their creepy faces… well, as a 7 year old, I was completely freaked out. (BTW, Mom? Why was I allowed to watch V at 7 years old? Or was that something you weren’t aware of?)

Anyhoo, according to the Fandango Movie Blog, the V Movie is in the works. And I’m kinda excited.

But I probably won’t be taking either of my kids.

And here’s hoping Marc Singer is still starring, and that he’s just as dreamy as I remember.

1. Oh I do remember it. I always picture them eating mice. Did that even happen?

   Probably. They were waxy alien folks.

   Thanks for the update.

2. I remember V! It was so awesome! I’d love to see that movie.

   Also! Have you heard of the Hollywood Stock Exchange? It’s HSX.com. You can buy fake stock in actors and movies, including movies in various stages of development. It’s pretty cool. Dave and I both have accounts. (He actually has a blog, boxofficebozoz.blogspot.com, where he and whoever wants to participate predicts movie earnings on their opening weekends.)
