It's not based on the game (damn), but it still sounds interesting.

Solaris is the name of a 1960s/70s movie based ona SUPERB book by Stanislaw Lem, I believe his name was. It delves into truly what is "alive", and to the madness of men's desires. That's my take on it anyway, it was a great time killer on that airplane when I took a trip on Minnesota.

Yeah, the book's a trip... I haven't managed to see the original movie yet though.

The original Solaris is a classic Russian sci-fi film. Steven Soderbergh is directing the re-make, so if his recent track record is any indication, it should be great.

I'll have to see if I can hunt down a copy of the book, sounds interesting. I made the mistake of trying to search for "Solaris" on amazon.com, though, forgetting that Solaris is an operating system.

It's still Stanislav Lem.

 

A great book and the original russian movie is very fastidious. I hope Steven Soderbergh doesn't have to make to many "Hollywood Compromises".

If you search for the book with that name and it doesn't work, try "Stanislaw". Amazon seems to find it okay though.

Indeed, its too good to get compromised into a flashy bloodfest. Not that its completely clean ;p
