		<description>&lt;i&gt;&quot;Has Hollywood lost all desire to make anything entirely original?&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

Let&#039;s be fair: since Asteroids has, as you say, no plot, no characters, and the only the sketchiest of visual images (its &quot;vector&quot; display offered simple outline drawings of spaceships and asteroids), these things will have to be invented.  Therefore a feature film based on the game will be &lt;i&gt;almost&lt;/i&gt; entirely original.  (Unless it steals ideas from other sources.)</description>
