    Shocked Board games the new craze in Hollywood?

    .. not Leo.

    Universal Pictures and Hasbro, Inc. formed the partnership in 2008 to produce at least four motion pictures based on some of the world's best-known and beloved brands. Currently in development are Monopoly, with Ridley Scott set to produce and direct and Pamela Pettler writing the screenplay; Candy Land, with Kevin Lima to direct based on a script from Etan Cohen; Clue, with Gore Verbinski to produce and direct; Ouija, with Michal Bay to produce; and Battleship, with Peter Berg to direct from a screenplay by Jon and Erich Hoeber.
    So, with that lineup, there's gonna be explosions and stuff in Ouija, pirates in Clue, espionage in Monopoly and over the top camera sequences in Battleship. Oh boy.

    Gore Verbinski doing Clue?...first time I've heard that news, he's attached to the BioShock movie now. (Although he might not do it anymore)
    I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.

    Ah, give me something clever to say here.

    1987? Too old. Time for a remake.
