So it's come out that Ridley Scott is going to turn Monopoly into a feature length film.

Unless he makes something as compelling as the greed induced flick 'Wall Street' I can't imagine a story about buying utilities and winning beauty pageants that interesting.

But it may help confirm the real rules of the game, such as:

o do you have to go around the board once before you can buy any properties
o what does happen when you land on Free Parking?
o are you allowed to collect rent while in jail?
o and how do you really get out of jail anyway?
o is the Top Hat the best piece?
o how do you really win?
