Posted: 6/10/04 at 3:01pm"The Fountain"? Oh, God! That's not that re-make of The Fountainhead that that hack Aronofsky keeps threatening to do...oh Hugh, don't do it!!!!! After Van Helsing you can't afford to do another suck-o-rama!

Posted: 6/10/04 at 5:51pmNo, no sarcasm...I heard that Aronofsky was doing "The Fountainhead" with Don Cheadle last year....but now this. I really don't like Aronofsky's work. He's Michael Bay for the art-house crowd.

No, The Fountain has nothing to do with The Fountainhead. It's about a search for the fountain of youth, I think.
I never heard the rumor you're talking about, but I do know that Aronofsky is also attached to Lone Wolf and Cub.
I haven't seen Pi or Requiem for a Dream, but anything that gets Jackman out of the action and rom-com genres is good by me at this point. He's being so badly wasted in film it's just painful.
