The other FS that springs to mind is one of Alan Moore's (I think) involving students at a lecture talking about life being wiped out.  In the denouement it turns out that the students are dinosaurs.  Not sure which prog though.


The only Future Schock/Time Twister style story I know featuring dinosaurs by Alan Moore is Cold Snap, with Bryan Talbot, but it's not 2000AD.

Because of the tosh.

More likely because George Lucas, at the time, wasn't interested in making any more and the storyline that had been set-up was concluded.

Netflix and Paramount/Skydance are negotiating a deal on the Alex Garland-directed Annihilation that will give the streaming service international rights to the sci-fi thriller, and an opportunity to release the film on its overseas streaming service 17 days after the film premieres in the the U.S. on February 23. Paramount will do the traditional theatrical release in the U.S., Canada and China.[/i]

The problem with Disney though is they'll probably end up flogging Star Wars to death and it'll go on and on for the rest of time.

Lucasfilm were all ready busy doing just that before Disney bought them: Lucas had plans to produce the sequels and a TV series himself but certain developments collapsed (plans for a bigger studio building got scuppered) so he threw his cards in and sold it all off.

One for the fans.

Quentin Tarantino is also planning to boldly go where he has not gone before. Sources said that Tarantino has come up with a great idea for a Star Trek movie at Paramount. After sharing his idea with JJ Abrams (who himself is busy prepping Star Wars Episode IX), I've heard the plan is to assemble a writers room of scribes who'll hear Tarantino's take and begin to put together a movie. If it all works out, Tarantino might direct it, with Abrams producing.

Okay change of subject - why the hell has my left eye been weeping ever since I left the house this morning? Right eye's fine. It's very weird
