Re: \"The Island\" starring Scarlet *DROOL*
[ QUOTE ]
HELP ME! where has this story been done before?? [/ QUOTE ] There's a book by this guy Michael Marshall Smith called "Spares." One of the plot points is that the hero discovers a lab (or something) where cloned copies of various rich people are kept in order to be broken up for parts when the rich people who employ the service need them. Pretty much exactly this story line. To further corroborate that this is the source, it is mentioned in his other books that "Spares" had been optioned by DreamWorks, the producers of this movie. He writes really weird books; a lot of them start out kind of interesting but degenerate into bizarro deus ex machina business ("Spares" pretty quickly gets away from the whole cloning subplot and goes someplace completely and unexplainedly different). I'm sure this movie is going to have extremely little resemblance to the book. |
