Rendezvous with Rama

Since at least 2000, a film version of Arthur C. Clarke's SF classic
Rendezvous with Rama has been promised by Morgan Freeman. While
we wait, here is a clip made by film student Aaron Ross:

This story is known for describing a major planetoid hit in Europe
taking place on September 11, 2077 (the novel was published in 1973).
This destruction led to the formation of Spacewatch to ensure no
more such nasty surprises, which led to the discovery of the giant
black cylinder from an unknown alien civilization later named Rama.
I did not care for the second novel in this series (it was so not Clarke)
and didn't bother with the rest. Why can't some people leave the
classics well enough alone?
