We've written before about OBLIVION, the SF movie that seemed to be "based' on a graphic novel by director Joseph Kosinski, adapted by Arvid Nelson and Andree Wallin -- although a mock-up of the project was apparently used to lure Tom Cruise into starring in the film (which opens later this month) -- Ksinski now says it will most likely never be published::

You may have noticed a few trailers for OBLIVION, a new Tom Cruise SF film that seems to fuse the themes of I am Legend, Mission Impossible, War of the Worlds and Minority Report into one handy epic.
