Fahrenheit 451 remake

Looking at IMDB this afternoon, I see that the Fahrenheit 451 remake has been pushed back to 2010. I consider the Francois Truffaut 1966 original film to be a classic. If you're going to make another version, it had better be good.

I clicked on the trivia link, and I see this:

"Mel Gibson was planning to direct this remake, with Tom Cruise in the lead role, but schedules did not allow it."

The following exchange was prompted in AIM.

Lythandra (2:51:42 PM): Yeah, let's remake a Francois Truffaut movie and have it be directed by Mel Gibson and starring Tom Cruise.

Bend down here so I can set your hair on fire.
