Karn Evil 9 to be a sci-fi movie.

It's a sad day when we need a movie to turn younger folks on to older prog. But I get it. These days most younger folks(even ones already into prog)barely seem to know who Yes is or even Genesis. I'm on a few prog discussion forums on reddit and all I see is postings of these newer prog metal and fringe prog and indie-ish prog bands(Thank You Scientist etc), rarely anything past the last five years and rarely any older prog except Pink Floyd and Rush. Occasionally Camel but that's only because Mikael Akerfeldt from Opeth has cited them as an influence.

A bit late to do Keith and Greg any good.  RIP.

   Yeah, but who will play the Gypsy Queen In a Glaze of Vaseline?

"Love Beach" movie adaptation next? 

Hi,

TARKUS was screaming out for a film adaptation. As for this, will probably be a decade in pre-production hell. Producers and executives changing hands. If it ends up ripping off the "ideas" of the Will We Rock You Musical it'll be a waste of time.
Would rather this film than another sodding biopic however!
But really, Karn Evil 9. Look at the lyrics. How could you make that into a good film? At least with TARKUS there's the angle of how was it constructed? What was behind the forces attacking them and why did they need to build that Aardvark, armadillo tank combination?
As opposed to "We built a machine called Karn Evil 9 and it's turned against us somehow!".

Although if they incorporate Emerson's compositions into or completely use Emerson's compositions, then at least the soundtrack will be a must buy!

They've clearly already started hiring for 7 virgins and a mule.
