you don't make a good case, you're definitely not on the debate team.
despite the article I seriously doubt this is in the works. No one is going to part with any serious money to make a prequel about an obscure character in a bad movie.
ehem. Underworld: Rise of the Lycans?
OH God, Joe is posting again, someone hand me my pills!
"You're not John Conner, I saw you die, said Kyle". "I was only injured, replied John". "No, your injuries were too severe, you died. Look at you, where are your injuries? You're, you're a Terminator." "Kyle, its still me, yes my body was beyond repair, but my essence is here." He points to his head. "No John". Kyle raised his pulse rifle and aimed it at John but before he could fire, John fired first. Knocked to the ground Kyle looked up at the Terminator in the form of the man he once idolized. All hope was lost. "If you kill me how will you ever be born?" "Thats a good question Kyle, all this time we've focus on Sarah, on John, when had we known the it was you we should have targeted all along." John pointed his rifle at Kyle's face. "The resistance is finished, the battle is won. We the machines are the victors, salvation is ours." Kyle never heard the second shot.

Everyone's favorite aspect of Hook: Julia Roberts holding up instruction cards for the audience. (laugh, cry, applause, ...)
No, that was John Williams.

Yes, his manipulative and syrupy score ruined what could have been a masterpiece. The discerning viewer recoils from JW's attempts to seduce us. Like a hooker trying to pull you into her room...

Yeah, when I listen to Hook, I feel so dirty, like I'm cheating on Stravinsky or something.

He likes to feel dirty, rolling in the hay with cheap music and then coming all angst ridden here to confess his sins.
Ars superior est vita hominum.
"We pop out and come into the world and music is there. We didn't invent it - it's all organised in the atmosphere by divinity or whatever. It's a miracle." - John Williams-
I think music is a stream of some kind. It could be blood. It could be water. It could be ether. Whatever it is it seems to be a living, organic force that’s in motion, that serves humanity and is part of humanity and part of what describes us as humans. We sing, play, dance, all the things that we do. And there is a vibrant and great literature we have been given. ... As musicians, we join the stream. We swim in the stream with all the other millions of music makers. It’s a life force, a strong one, surrounding us and we are part of it. -John Williams-

There's already a "Hook" prequel; it's called "Peter Pan".
P.s., isn't that the guy who played Rufio at the beginning of "Jurassic ParK"? He's in the shots of the workmen waiting for the 'raptor to arrive, isn't he, or am I seeing things?

You're just seeing things.
If you put John Williams in a dryer, you get Jerry Goldsmith! You get the downside version!

Yes, you are. You've taken too much Rufio.
How many fingers am I holding up, Rich?
