'I Dream of Jeannie' movie still a go...

I believe no one out there really needs this movie, but it looks like "I Dream of Jeannie" is not quite dead yet. The Los Angeles Times reports Sheila Callaghan from "The United States of Tara" has been recruited to write a draft. The film will obviously be based on the popular sitcom. I just don't understand why they are all so keen on doing this adaptation, especially considering many efforts to do so already failed in the past. Oh well...
