I was a little worried at first but knowing that Ossie Von Richthoven wil be the co-producer puts my mind at ease. Ultimately, it's all about the script of course.

Can't wait! :freak:

Date seems a little off...

I love how they portray cavewomen as wearing the fur version of a low cut one piece bathing suit. Come on, get real!

Cavewomen probably went topless... :D

Where are they going to find someone that can fill Raq's fur....boots?

Ohhhh, most of the talent that brought us The Day After Tomorrow are involved, so you know it'll be extra-scientifically accurate as well!

Yes, that's true. I'm hoping dinosaurs from the entire Mesozoic era will be depicted there along with Neanderthals, Cro-Magnons, and other beings that must have co-existed since we know evolution never took place.

Anthony's right. How could it be 10,000 BC when we all know the world was created only 6,000 years ago?

Inflation?

One thing I always wondered about was what the years were called back then. How many different calendars were there before the Jewish calendar was used? What point in time did they use as their reference point? Is there any evidence of cave people keeping track of years? Did 10,000 B.C. or 1,000,000 B.C. equate to the year 1 ug?

Why remake One Million Years B.C. as 10,000 B.C.? Are one hundred dinosaur years equivalent to one human year?

And hey, guess where they're filming part of it...

Damn, I knew NZ was a few years behind TRoTW in terms of broadband - call our's fast narrowband if you want to be charitable, but I call it disgraceful - but 10,000 years? BC?
Bugger...

Here is a pic of a recently photographed modern era caveman (http://www.obsessedwithwrestling.com/pictures/a/andre/24.jpg)!

...and here's one (http://www.georgesteele.com/animal/george-fred.jpg)that was recently captured!

....Here's yet another (http://www.briansdriveintheater.com/edwood/tor1.jpg)!

...and here's a little cavebaby (http://www.dvddrive-in.com/images/i-m/itsalive3.jpg)!

Actually, from the plot description — "a young hunter on his quest to lead an army across a vast desert, battling saber tooth tigers and prehistoric predators as he unearths a lost civilization and attempts to rescue the woman he loves from an evil warlord" — it sounds more like another Conan the Barbarian ripoff (didn't we get enough of those in the ’80s?) than a remake of One Million Years B.C. At least there don't seem to be any dinosaurs in this one — just big ugly freakin’ humongous mammals!

10,000 B.C. follows a young hunter (Steven Strait) on his quest to lead an army across a vast desert, battling saber tooth tigers and prehistoric predators as he unearths a lost civilization and attempts to rescue the woman he loves (Camilla Belle).

Do sabertooth tigers live in the desert?

If this is before history, how can there have been a civilization to get lost?

Where does a saber-toothed tiger live?
Wherever it wants to! Nyuk, nyuk.

And didn't you know that the Sphinx at Gizeh was built by some lost civilization that predates the Egyptian Old Kingdom by thousands of years? And that Stonehenge was built by space aliens? And what about Atlantis? Hell, it's all been proved by L. Ron Hubbard . . . or Erich von Daniken . . . or Tom Cruise, or somebody.

Don't forget Edgar Cayce!
Atlantis sank about 12,000 years ago, so that's around the same time frame as this film.

Doctor Who thoroughly explained Atlantis' sinking---three different ways!

You guys are reminding me of all those "Sun Classic" films I loved as a kid, they were "educational" family movies that played the second-tier theaters and drive-ins, and always focused on Chariots of the Gods, Bigfoot, Mayans, the Loch Ness Monster,The Bermuda Triangle, etc. One on UFO's shamelessly used that famous color footage of the Jupiter 2 crashing in Bronson Canyon intermixed with "real" UFO footage without identifying it as being from Lost in Space! I can still remember how spectacular that shot looked on the big screen in color, it's one of the reasons I like the J2 so much till this day.

They used to be used to be hyped on TV ads with typical overwrought seventies hyperbole and ran on TV a hundred times a day: "See REAL footage of the Bigfoot!""Did ancient astronauts guide their mysterious craft with these centuries-old markings ONLY VISIBLE FROM THE AIR?"

Back on topic, I think leaving the dino's out of a BC remake would be a huge mistake.

Hey, don't be dissing '70s hyperbole. Where would we we without all that hyperbolin'? In a ho-hum, vanilla world, that's where.

Being hunted down by saber-tooths... um, saber-teeth? Saber-toothii, whatever the plural version of those beasts is.

"a young hunter on his quest to lead an army across a vast desert....."

I don't recall primitive humans (Yes, I was there......) being organized into a cohesive fighting force that could be referred to as an "Army". It was more like the family/clan males getting together on occassion for a nice localized fight/socialization gathering/woman-swap (through kidnapping/raids). Ahhh the good old days!

If it's as scientifically accurate as "Caveman" (starring Ringo Starr and Barbara Bach), I'll be happy.

So, why are so many people on this board having trouble with the concept of "fantasy?" Cavemen discovering a lost civilization. I kind of doubt it is supposed to be scientifically accurate.

how can there have been a civilization to get lost?

They crash landed in an airliner, wound up on ABC and found a hatch...

^^ :p

:rolleyes:

I think we were just having fun joking about a potential "B" movie.

Or what if the cavemen are really living in the FUTURE, see, and they go on this journey into "forbidden" territory, and they stumble upon the ruins of — get this — NEW YORK CITY!! How's THAT for an original idea?

Of course, that doesn't explain the saber-toothed tigers. . .

A planet where Sabertooths evolved from man?!!

...er, cats??!! :eek:

Aw Come on Scot, You didn't find "YOR HUNTER FROM THE FUTURE " to be a Classic? What's wrong with you?:freak: LOL

Yer killin' me with this. :)

That's some funny stuff, Lefty!

I wish the multiplexes carried "B" movies..... at cut-rate admissions. And Drive-ins with stoned friends sneakin' in via the trunk!

Too many so-called "A" movies at big $$$$$ - Ahhhh the good old days of the 60s and 70s.......Bigfoot's Chariots of Fire Monster-Pull on the Plane of Nazca!

How about the original "Dawn of the Dead", with human-eating zombies wandering about a shopping mall? That's one of my favs.

My scariest B movie was on TV in the 60s, when I was a kid. It was the first "Invaders From Mars". I still have nightmares about sand pits with trap doors. :eek:

Yep. The original "Invaders From Mars" is sort of "Blue Velvet" for 6 year-olds. A true childhood nightmare captured on celluloid. Absolutely brilliant in it's own twisted way.

How about the original "Dawn of the Dead", with human-eating zombies wandering about a shopping mall? That's one of my favs.:

One of my most memorable 80's movie experiences was seeing Dawn of the Dead for the first time at a mall in Va Beach. Walking out with the rest of the audience, it was a truly weird sensation to walk out of the dark theater into the bright mall where the zombies, errr, I mean shoppers were walking around aimlessly.

5 Million Years to Earth for me, I saw it on the CBS late movie as a kid and it scared the crap out of me, even though I was really too young to understand the plot.

But back on topic, I see no reason to announce you are remaking OHMYBC if you're not going to have dinosaurs in it. The cavegirls with fur bikinis and lots of mascara are optional, but not the dinosaurs.

The cavegirls with fur bikinis...

They were wearing something?

. . . I see no reason to announce you are remaking OHMYBC if you're not going to have dinosaurs in it."OHMYBC"? So humans coexisted with dinosaurs one HUNDRED million years ago?

"OHMYBC"? So humans coexisted with dinosaurs one HUNDRED million years ago?

Nope. Totally contradicts the Biblical timeline ya' heathens!

"OHMYBC"? So humans coexisted with dinosaurs one HUNDRED million years ago?

As much as they did one million years ago:)

Nope. Totally contradicts the Biblical timeline ya' heathens!

You forgot the Luddite part...

Not registered at RottenTomatoes.com, so could someone tell me what the hub-bub is all about? I take it that this is some sort of caveman movie...?

It's yet another remake of One Million Years B.C. exept this time it's called Ten Thousand Years B.C. - and it ain't got no dinosaurs. Don't know what's going on with Rotten Tomatoes. They tell me I'm not registered either and won't let me register the way they've got the page set up.

You forgot the Luddite part...What do Luddites have to do with this?

What do Luddites have to do with this?

They're the "lost tribe" the other cavemen discover. They make little furry stockings.
