I only say that because I'm a big fan of Dumas and his novels, so a future SF update with such an antique name might sound weird. Just saying. I liked the Jim Caviezel/Guy Pearce version a lot, so couple that with my love of the book, and the bar is set rather high.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4651358851207677633.post-36081111605568866712011-07-03T21:38:01.050+02:002011-07-03T21:38:01.050+02:00Actually i think it may been been a planet prison....Actually i think it may been been a planet prison..although that still counts as isolated i suppose.

And since we adore science fiction, this futuristic version could really be something very cool :)<br /><br />Palicki is really pretty, although I like her better as a blond :) but it seems not even beauty helped her in not ruining the WONDER WOMAN :(<br />Hope you will have a nice weekend with your family ;)DEZMONDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14127166104359407763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4651358851207677633.post-26675598427739225122011-07-02T13:58:55.339+02:002011-07-02T13:58:55.339+02:00Awesome post, thanks!
