> Has anyone seen the new film "The Hollow Man"
starring Kevin Bacon and Elizabeth Shue? I'd like
to see it, but probably never will.

fascinate me. I've read H.G. Wells "The Invisible
Man" at least three times and seen the old movie.
I've also seen the more recent "Memoirs of an
Invisible Man" with Chevy Chase.

One detail that i enjoyed the inclusion of in
"Memoirs", was that of him eating. They did a
nice job of pointing out that his food would
remain visible until it's absorbed enough to
become part of him, and thus, invisible as well.
I love it when movies try to answer the little
detail questions. Too often they just overlook
all of the "necessities" of everyday life,
particularly eating and going to the restroom.
I'd just love to see Riker telling Picard that the
away mission will have to wait for a few minutes
because he just *has* to visit the latrine. They
don't snack either. It would be pretty neat to
see Worf standing at his station munching on some
Cheetos. Hey, wasn't I talking about
invisibility?
I thought the idea in "Mystery Men" of an
invisible boy who could only be invisible when no
one, not even himself, was watching was a nice
idea as well.
