"The studio is expected to collar a feature deal worth seven figures for the rights to a contemporized version featuring the same characters who became so ingrained in the minds of viewers during the show's 12-year run".

Why? Why the hell does everybody have to "contemporize" all these classic properites? 5-0 would have been SO cool if they'd left it set in early '70s Hawaii. Like Ocean's 11 - sure, the original wasn't a great movie, but the remake coulda been set in 'early 60s Vegas and been more than just another techno-heist movie...
