Spoilers? The novel was published in 1982. The original movie (as silly as it can be) was released in 1987. You can't spoil a reboot.

damn, maybe this is just down to me being recently awakened or something but goddamn is it depressing how this seemingly same cycle has been going on for so long
(and yes, i know it goes a lot further back than 82)
I’m vaguely interested in watching this, but I genuinely enjoyed watching Richard Dawson in the first one! Iconic role for him.
Oh yeah, me too. Reboots can be novel and interesting sometimes. In this case in particular, a less campy vibe would be a very good thing.
I think we can stop worrying about spoilers for stories that have already been told though.
Oh, I agree. I think the cat’s out of the bag on the general plot of this movie!
Metacritic review highlights are funny, in some it’s being criticised for not being political enough while another says it’s too political. Must be a good movie.
Its basically a predictor of the world in 2030
