OT Aye, Carumba! I, Robot.

OK, so Hollywood is making a sfx-fest film out of one or many of Asimov's robot stories. www.irobotmovie.com but I can't be bothered to look up any info on it myself, so I'm asking you lot.

-Which story or stories is it based on?
-Will Will Smith be playing Elijah Bailey?
-Have they butchered Asimov's story beyond all recognition? (I'm thinking yes, but I'm trying to remain open-minded)
-Will they attempt to make it all contemporary, or will they remain true to the 50s/ 60s based science and culture in the books? I'm longing to see a modern-day film made true to the retro-science of the era in which the story was written. The closest we have in the 1980s Version of Flash Gordon...
-Will it be part of a greater continuity of films based around the rest of Asimov's three-laws books?
-Will anyone here bother to see it, or should we all just hate it from afar?
-Does it have anything to do with that AI film that came out a few years ago and (I believe) was another hideous Hollywood Asimoff rip-ov.
