The one where a Hollywood developer named Gentile (with his wife Cathy Moriarity) want to build a Hollywood studio in Preston, CT, along with a 4000 room hotel & an indoor amusement center, all for $1.6 billion. They seem to have the financing and all that, and it is near the casinos, so it could make the area even more of a tourist destination... but, I think Route 2 would need major re-working or re-routing, as those last 15 miles or so from Norwich to near the RI border are very slow drives even without traffic.

Utopia Studios: So Close, But Not A Wrap September 11, 2005
By RICK GREEN, Courant Staff Writer
PRESTON -- A New York developer who surrounds himself with Hollywood insiders and talks in billions of dollars, thousands of jobs and grand hotels has crashed into a roadblock erected by a small town sandwiched between the world's largest casinos.
Some people are now worried that, in its zeal to consider every aspect of Joseph Gentile's $1.6 billion Utopia Studios proposal, Preston may shut the door on a blockbuster economic development opportunity that could benefit the entire state. Gentile and his ever-growing posse of film industry executives say Utopia could bring millions of dollars in moviemaking and thousands of jobs to Connecticut.
Gentile's astonishing - some say unbelievable - vision for 12 state-of-the-art sound stages, 2 million square feet of indoor theme parks and hotels on the 400-acre site of the former Norwich State Hospital along the Thames River is in danger of collapsing because local leaders are concerned about its size and viability.
