I can\’t imagine what a re-imagined version could do to improve it.
I am inclined to suggest this has more to do with Soderberg\’s own impression of his own project, than it does with "fixing" it.
Seeing as the director admitted to not being able to keep his hands off of "2001" (good edit), I suspect it will be forthcoming anyway, and I\’ll watch it.

Really enjoyed seeing influences from Welles, Gilliam and others.

Funny that Soderbergh went in the other direction.

I've always wished it would be released here, so it will be nice to be able to see the new version as well as the old.

Can he cut out Teresa Russell's horrible performance?
