[Leica] Old film question

[Aram Langhans]

I found a bunch of old Kodak Portra film in my freezer.  It was bought 
in 07 and has been in the freezer ever since. The exp date is 8/08.  I 
though of digging out my R8 for my upcoming trip and shooting it but was 
wondering if you think it might be any good or would I just be wasting 
my money on developing costs?  If scanned do you think I could get the 
full range of colors from it?  I haven't shot any color film since about 
2007 and thought it might be a good exercise in self control.
