Originality sales only to a fine audience
And that is a minority

It's all about money.

I don't mind remakes as long as they're introducing new technology to an old format. I think War of the Worlds is a good example.

War of the worlds is an adaptation -speilburg-. Not a remake.
Very Happy I got a pocket full of pins! I'm about to burst a lot of bubbles!

Dear Regged:

We are sorry you are not interested in our remakes.
Originality is a product of creativity and need of the staff working on the film.
While the directors and actors always sucked, there has recently been a disturbing trend of script writers getting laid. This has resulted in a constant stream of copies of old scripts being submitted by trained monkeys on behalf of the writers.
Thankfully, the average idiot consumer does not notice the difference, so remakes of old movies bring us more money without such expenses as the re-design of posters.
Once again, we are sorry you are not dumb enough to like our movies.

Sincerely,
The greedy bastards at the MPAA.

remakes do suck. Only for making [quick] money.
Same counts for music.
Almost every songs [and in particular dance songs] are just covers from great musicsongs that are comming from the 60-90's.

Talking about losing originallity.

PISSES ME OFF.

yea ringu was the first to come into my head. I haven't seen the yank version of jsa (i dont think) but I dont see how that would work anyway because its about killings on boarders. maybe if it was in 1980's berlin or another hostile place like that.

which are really poor IMO.

asian cinema, is so different from hollywood. that's why it just doesn't work.
asian movies are extreme in every way. emotions, violence, colours, angles, stories. that's what makes them special. the "westernized" versions lack all that Sad

JSA is in the works, set at the US/Mexico border. Yeah... I know. Fucking retarded ...

About Hitman: Movie (2007)
Vin Diesel is a hardcore gamer, and absolutely loves the Hitman series. For that reason I have faith that he wont destroy the movie.

Response: Well, Uwe Boll probably loved the Alone in the Dark games.

It's got some crap to do with immigration. I fail to understand how this will be adapted.

exactly, its hardly a war between them that has caused millions of people to die and seperated the whole world. Still I love asian films much more than hollywood ones. The action flicks are smarter, the casts are 'cooler'. They have very little limits and dont need to be politically correct etc. Usually producers / directors etc. just make the film how they want it to be made instead of targeting a whole section of the business they just go for people who like what they like. Admittedly some films styles are worse but that's only because of cultural differences to mine i.e. a japanese comedy isnt as good as an english one to me.
