This reboot would give Emmerich and Devlin the opportunity to fix whatever problems they had with the original film and improve it. And with today's special effects, the reboot could be pretty frigin' awesome.
If they do stick with the original storyline of the 1994 film I wonder who they'll get to play Ra. I thought Jaye Davidson did a great job as the false god. He didn't look physically intimidating, but he was scary in his cold demeanor and utter lack of remorse.
