All that is swirling around is that somebody, somewhere, is 'working
on it...'.
It'll get to the screen, real soon now.

mumble, grumble, while they fumble...

As long as Orci doesn't get anywhere near it.

Stargate Universe SGU: It puts the "U" in "SUCKS"!
It's the show 'Defiling Gravity' would be if DG had more regulars,
fewer abortions, worse writers, and no budget for lighting.
Remember, you can't spell "disgust" without SGU!

Orci wrote the ONLY Zorro movie I wasn't able to sit all the way
through, and I've watched Zorro movies that weren't even in English.

Hard to say what The Rocketeer would have been like if Katzenberg hadn't
been trying to sabatoge it. I've never seen Capt Tomorrow; the previews
make my eyes itch.

Don't forget the disasterous fifth season of Xena where Orci was the
new co-executive producer and seemed to completely misunderstand the
character, treating her as a female Kevin Sorbo "Hercules" when the
previous four seasons had developed her much further than that.

And he personally ruined the sequel to the 'characters play the writers
in the 20th Century' with Hudson Leick as the dark haired chain smoking
neurotic Liz (?); the first one was brilliant, and the Orci-penned
second was awful.
