chat c Dear <strong>Tribute</strong> T , I recently read in your magazine that there’s an online poll about who should be <strong>ca</strong>st in the next Superman movie. I thought I’d email you with my two cents. Actor Jim Caviezel [is] absolutely interested in playing Superman. Actress Selma Blair really wants to be Lois Lane. Instead of including actors who don’t want the Superman role in your survey, like Josh Hartnett, why not list actors who want the role and let the fans decide? Keep up the great work with your magazine. John Wood, Uxbridge Thanks for being one of 30,000 <strong>Tribute</strong> readers who voted in last month’s Casting Coach poll that saw Josh Duhamel and Tom Welling each with 44% of the vote (S<strong>ca</strong>rlett Johansson and Vin Diesel were your top picks for Lois Lane and Lex Luthor). You Y make a good point, and we’ll certainly try, although it’s often impossible to include everyone who may be vying for a role. You should also know that Superman director Bryan Singer has stated he won’t <strong>ca</strong>st anyone who’s played Jesus (i.e. The Passion of the Christ’s Caviezel, and presumably Willem Dafoe). Check out our James Bond Casting Coach poll on Page 9 and visit tribute.<strong>ca</strong> to vote. Dear <strong>Tribute</strong> T , Can you tell me when Electric Dreams (1984), Dynasty (1981 to 1989 TV series) and The Bionic Woman W (1976 to 1978 TV series) will be released on DVD? Jason E Davis The Bionic Woman is currently available in the U.K. and should be for sale on this side of the pond soon (hopefully before end-of-year). But for your Electric Dreams and Dynasty fix, you’ll have to be content with random 2 a.m broad<strong>ca</strong>sts on <strong>ca</strong>ble—as of press time, the distributors of these titles had no plans to release them on DVD. Dear <strong>Tribute</strong> T , I think a useful addition to your “Box Office” section (of tribute.<strong>ca</strong>) would be a column for the number of weeks in release for each movie. Right now users <strong>ca</strong>n tell which movies are new but it isn’t clear which Our readers write in movies are in their second, third or fourth week of release without doing some hunting. Carl Puna Great suggestion, Carl. Our box office section of tribute.<strong>ca</strong> now features a column listing the number of weeks in release for each movie. Please keep the good ideas coming. Dear <strong>Tribute</strong> T , My brother and I enjoy movies about man vs. machine, such as the The Terminator T . Will there ever be a sequel to the 1989 movie Moontrap, starring Walter W Koenig of Star Trek fame? If a sequel does come along, why not title it Marstrap with the face on Mars and structures around it? Mark Richards Peterborough, P Ontario A script for the sequel to Moontrap (untitled, as far as we <strong>ca</strong>n tell)—one that Trek’s Ensign Chekov reportedly read and liked— did kick around Hollywood for a while but the flick was then shelved indefinitely. Regrettably, there are no current plans to resurrect the project. Come on. Tell us what you really think!
