There's also been talk of bringing back Robby the Robot for the film, but it had better be a decent part and not just a cameo as usually happens in these sort of productions. It's not like he's a one-hit wonder like Gort or Kronos, you know. Bob is Old Hollywood and has a lot of pull in town, so fobbing him off with a bit part could backfire pretty badly.
He used to hang out with Sinatra.

Other than CGI for the spacecruiser, Robbie and the underground Krell machine, what's the point?
Make it a comedy with Leslie Neilson?
Make it a musical so it becomes a real space opera?
Talk about taking the easy way out!
Anyone can remake a hit, let's see them tackle "War of the Colossal Beast" or "Plan 9 From Outer Space"
Make it a re-imagining of "The Tempest" set in outer space, but with more of Shakespere's orginal dialog.
so they are trying to remake a 50 year old movie that itself was a remake of a 500 year old play. Originality is NOT in the Hollywood vocabulary.
Am I just being a pessimist, or do I see another Lost In Space in the entrails?
You really can't top perfection, and Forbidden Planet was close enough that there's no point in re-making it.
I think sergej has it right, this is going to be a disappointment.
This conversation of yours probably has more value than the remake, in that ultra-pessimistic-Monty-Python-sketch sort of way.
And I may be insensitive towards the movie, but once I saw the words "Lost in space" I couldn't help myself.
