    "True Lies" TV series?

    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    Interesting... I really liked the movie, but... I'm not too sure that an actual series would do this concept justice... oh well, I'll still try it out.

    No Charlton Heston in an eye patch? No dice.

    Guessing, we're talking a sort of slightly more action based "Chuck" type feel!?

    shhhhh. Tom Arnold might hear you.

    That dude has been talking up TL2 ever since the first was released. Funny thing is....it never happens. Does a certain washed up comedian need some work?

    Well JC and AS are fools for not doing a sequel to that movie. TL was so much fucking fun to watch... I am sick of Cameron's Lovey Dovey Alien Sci-FI based BS... I want some mindless over the top action spoofs of James Bond flicks.

    I know WDJWD!

    I wouldn't mind seeing a TL2, but you know that Cameron is WAY beyond something like that now. There's no way he would do it now after Avatar. I don't think Arnold would be up for it, either. Time to accept that the sequel is a thing of the past that will never surface. Unless it's a new cast and crew, of course. But then what's the point?

    IF it were to happen....they would have to work Bill Paxton's character in there. That sleazy car salesman/date rape kind of character was hilarious...

    Arnold it just too old I'm afraid. He looked past it in The Expendables...

    Seems like the action/spy show is en vogue right now, what with "Burn Notice" & all, so I'm sure this is what they're going for.

    Wow....i'm surprised. Didn't reallyt expect this one to go anywhere.

    Maybe it will work, but without the main players they're sure to have their work cut out for them...

    Yep.
    It'd be like making M.A.S.H without Donald Sutherland, Elliot Gould, Tom Skerritt, or Sally Kellerman and Robert Duval.
