Red Dawn is being re-made as well. Re-makes = teh suck.
I agree with respect given to the "Batman" and "The Hills Have Eyes" reboots. That was much better.

But, it is as if Hollywood has run out of original ideas and thinks that the originals can't stand up to the test of time or something.....maybe they just need to give the current crop of sh*tty actors and actresses something to do in between TMZ writeups and celebrity fender-benders.

If I see a "Jason and the Argonauts" redux starring Robert Pattison, I'm marching to LA and shooting someone.

I also noticed that "The Mechanic" is being remade with Jason Statham and Ben Foster. Besides that no one can supplant Charles Bronson, the original film was so nihilistic (just think about when Bronson and Jan-Michael Vincent witness a girl's attempted suicide, without lifting a finger to stop her or help), I doubt the Hollywood establishment would make such a cynical film.

This is a perfect era for that kind of film, though.

+rep to the poster who knows the source.



As for the remake, I'm with a poster above. Why does Hollywood feel the need to remake a movie that was well done in the first place?

According to Google it's from Orgazmo.

The trailer looks pretty good! I'm about as easy to please as a 12 year old when it comes to movies though. All I need is a two hour distraction.

Now I've got a hankerin' to watch the original again.
