Odd Lot Entertainment has chosen comic book legend and novice director Frank Miller to lead the Buck Rogers movie, so says The Hollywood Reporter.
This will be Take 2 for Miller, who has his directorial debut with The Spirit, opening in theaters Christmas Day.
Many comic book movie fans have openly panned The Spirit as an aesthetic rip-off of Sin City, and for looking too cornball, but a few of the more open-minded have expressed a "wait and see" attitude.
Now the first reviews are hitting the web, and if they're all like the critique at Latino Review, Odd Lot may want to reconsider:
"The costumes are bad, the sets are bad, the lighting is bad, the performances are bad. Everything! BAD, BAD, BAD, BAD, BAD!"
