This time in the cinema, as Sir Ben Kingsley is offered the chance to be young again, and taller and buffer than he was at that age, by being downloaded into Ryan Reynolds. Apparently it's not the old Joss Whedon script of the same idea (boo!) which is fair enough as it's about someone taking the offer happily rather than having to, and it's directed by Tarsem Singh, who made the oh-so-pretty The Cell and The Fall but apparently doesn't get to do anything so crazy this time (boo!)... but still, if you could be turned into someone new, healthy, young and pretty...
(See Surrogates for a version where everybody's at it, and yes, someone uses it to go TG in the very first scene.)
