And I'm waiting for someone to go and say that the film GODZILLA (98) was better than GOJIRA (54) or the US produced GODZILLA (56). Anyone that tasteless (and if so, may Gia DiLaurio bitch slap them!)?

Amen. And if anyone posts that they prefer the remake of "The Bad News Bears" over the original I will donate $100.00 towards having a helicopter full of tires dumped on their house in the middle of a party.

What other travesties can we look forward to in the coming years? How about "The Day the Earth Stood Still", "Escape From New York", "The Birds" and "Near Dark". The only remake I want to see is "The Keep".

I heard rumor about remake of "The Day the Earth Stood Still".

No rumour. It stars Keanu and Jennifer Connelly.

The Day The Earth Stood Still (2008)

The Otherness is clearly real, and setting up shop in LA.

I dunno! I may be willing to overlook Keanu Reeves if Jennifer Connelly is involved...in the film. Also a rumor that John Cleese will have a part? Hmmmmm. That COULD work for me!

I reserve judgment. :eek:

Was Evil Dead 2 a remake? or sequel ?

Cape Fear ? -I love both versions

Alien? Depends on my mood because I love Dark Star.

I'm a big Ian Fleming fan and I liked the new Bond and film. Actually, in my own opinion, Dalton until now (in License To Kill) the best Bond after Connery
(and I really wasn't impressed with C. after "Doctor NO") as Bond was a cold blooded, revenge driven SOB.

The remake of "THE BLOB" was NOT better than the original (but I still laugh at the stoner sequel!).
