NO. Just NO! Where are those OWS wallies when I need them?
-
What's this? First Total Recall, now Red Dawn? WOLVERINES!!!!!
P.S. Charlie Sheen better have a cameo in it...cuz we know Patrick Swayze won't...RIP.

Now the bad guys are North Korean. ::)
-
...cuz we know Patrick Swayze won't....
Or could he...?
-
WOLVERINES!!!!!
WOLVERINES!!!!!

i don't know, the first one was alright, in a corny sort of way. there's going to be a lot of rebooted movies coming, their cheaper to make, and they hope to cash in on the success of the originals.
-
Or could he...?
Dun dun dun!!!
-
NO! Just don't remake that film. I don't watch many films, but Red Dawn is one of the few I watch.
I realize how stupid this sounds, because the obvious answer is "just don't go to see the film!" but I am bothered that in 2014, when I am switching through channels I will see Red Dawn and it will not be "teh GOOD ONE", it will be the remake.
-
Yeah, that's a horrible feeling. It shouldn't matter, but it does.
-
no decent new scripts coming through i guess
-
There must be good scripts around. But they prefer the sure thing. They actually KNOW how much money they're going to make even before they start filming the movie.
-
It's easier/cheaper/more profitable to release a re-make of a crappy movie/tv show then to make something original. Even if it sucked, the name recognition alone is gold.
BTW, they're remaking The Munster's tv show....as a drama. Brad Garrett as Herman? Logical choice right? Nope, Jerry O'Connell. I think this will suck harder than trying to get that first taste of a Wendy's Frosty. About the only chance at saving it is Eddie Izzard as Grandpa.

Jerry O'Connell as Herman?! Big NO.
Eddie Izzard as Grandpa. YES!!
-
Red dawn looks like it will miss the point. This one will be like a reality show I guess. Reminds me of this:
As to the munsters
They're twisting it. Herman will be constantly rotting and have to deal with it.
Lily will be a horrible bloodthirsty vampire.
Apparently Marilyn will be a sociopath like dexter or some such cowpoo, she's supposed to be "The worst of them all."
And they're calling it mockingbird lane.
