Talks of the name of this revived story, ‘The Adromeda Strain’ have sparked rumors that the director was thinking of just calling the movie, ‘The Andromeda Brain,’ making the entire focus of the movie on a brain in space, without any cast members, only a voice over of the talking brain.

“It would be the perfect way to save money – not
having to pay actors and just have a very good simu-
lation of a brain instead,” says one science fiction fan.

“I think in a time when Hollywood likes reality shows
and not having to pay actors, this is a great idea that fits right in with the thrifty mentality. They could save a *hit load of moolah. And heck, maybe the brain would win over fans, itself! They could set up a fan site and even do live video feeds of interviews with ‘the brain.’”

But actors, Eric McCormack, Benjamin Bratt and Andre Braugher may have not been given the opportunity to be in the film, if it weren’t for a lot of opposition over the brain idea. Fans of the earlier movie from 1972 protested over the great story change proposal and burned miniature toy brains outside the studios.
