OPEN YOUR MIND! OPEN YOUR MIIIIND!

I don't mind this. There are loads of movies I would love to see multiple takes on:

I'd like to see a Running Man movie that is actually based on the story in the novella.

I'd like to see a giant Dune uberepic.

I'd like to see a Highlander remake with a MUSE soundtrack.

I'd like to see a new take on 2001 (the novel series) not just a slavish ode to Kubrick's film.

Oh Jesus yes.

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

This is very old news.

 

[Grisby]

Damn this isn't about the cartoon.

And I guarantee you the effects are not going to be as awesome as the originals.

Well fuck me.

 

[Sweedishrodeo]

I don't care how young you were - Reboot stank.

i re-watched the series months ago and found it to be engrossing. i peeped beast wars after that just for good measure. they both were as entertaining as ever!

 

[Yeef]

I was expecting this, for some reason:

It's been a long week.

 

[Busty]

It should come as no surprise that this comes from Columbia Pictures (aka Sony) who, as a studio, are known for making bizarre choices and then paying through the nose for them.

Example A should be 'How Do You Know?', a rom com with a budget of $120m that's going to make less than $20m in the US.

There was one rumour kicking around ages ago that Kurt Wimmer's script for this reboot isn't actually set on Mars at all but is more of a 'futuristic Bourne' style actioner.

I don't mind Len Wiseman at all but this whole project just rubs me the wrong way.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

every Arnold movie outside of Conan, Commando and Predator should be remade. A lot of movies age terribly because of how bad and unbelievable his accent/acting is.

Even True Lies. That's right, I said TRUE FUCKING LIES.

Die in a fire.

You would have them remake T1 and T2 as well?

lol i forgot about Terminator but no those are safe. He's playing a fucking robot so it works.

Why would you want them to remake True Lies? How could anybody want that?

Didn't you see Mr. And Mrs. Smith?

not saying that I want one, just that if they did (and it was done by the right people, not hacks) I wouldn't mind it, and I certainly wouldn't just write it off right off the bat and start spewing garbage about my childhood being raped. It's a great movie but it's not like it's infallible, in part because of Arnold. At this point he kinda becomes distracting in a lot of movies, at least for me. I feel the same way with something like Total Recall.

True Lies features Arnold's best acting though.

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

Arnold's charisma, accented delivery, and physical presence makes most those movies memorable.

Anyone else expect Arnold in True Lies?

Good god, no!

 

[Ninja Scooter]

True Lies features Arnold's best acting though.

His best acting is everyone else's (except maybe shitty Sam Worthington) C level. And it's not so much the acting, it's just him. He became too larger than life. It's like watching Hulk Hogan act or something. He's AHNOLD in every movie.

Until you see Hulk Hogan "act."

Ninja Scooter. Its the holidays, we shouldn't fight and I shouldn't say anything I might regret. So with that in mind, let us put this conversation to rest with a very sincere fuck you.

 

[Lebron]

You're fucking crazy. I will storm whatever studio that green lights Kindergarten Cop or Jingle All the Way remakes.


THERE IS NO BATHROOM

 

[HomerSimpson-Man]

The idea that anyone else in True Lies except Arnold is still in my head.

I threw up in my mouth and crapped my pants at the same time.

On Total Recall remake - 200 million Budget. Fuck me.

There's nothing wrong with that.

Some of the movies, like Total Recall, do deserve another shot. Other movies were great because of Arnold being Arnold. No one would care about Kindergarten Cop if it was Dileep Rao acting as a teacher; I mean care less.

It's coming. 8/3/2012.

*cries*

 

[Discotheque]

What the hell? Why is Colin Farrell still getting hate these days?

In Bruges, The New World, Miami Vice, The Way Back (haven't seen yet but it looks good)

I think it's safe to say he's awesome. And probably the only reason I'm slightly interested in this dumb reboot idea. Verhoeven films should remain untouched.

 

[Ravidrath]

I don't really get this at all, and hopefully never will.

What is the point of rebooting a movie for an audience who knows nothing about the original?

Just make a new movie! Copy it in every way and call it something else, instead of referencing something ancient and unknown to the target audience.

 

[Clydefrog]

Well this just ruined my Friday.

 

[Anticitizen One]

Is all the wierd stuff from the first movie coming back? Like Johnny Cab and QUADO?

 

[FunkyPajamas]

Meh Farrell. Acting is not arching your eyebrows, you hack.

 

[Discotheque]

Eew len wiseman is directing? Colin Farrell or not I'm passing on this one.

Meh Farrell. Acting is not arching your eyebrows, you hack.

Neither is furrowing them, like a certain leonardo. I don't want to turn this into actor-wars though.

 

[WillyFive]

I don't go to a Scwarzenegger film to see "acting". I go to see ASS KICKING

 

[FunkyPajamas]

It's ok, I'm not a Leonardo fan. Not sure why you brought him up to be honest.

 

[Discotheque]

It's ok, I'm not a Leonardo fan. Not sure why you brought him up to be honest.

Because he's known to just furrow his eyebrows and 'act'. He's got this constant grumpy face.

 

[Anticitizen One]

Yes the stuff that I remember that made it so memorable

 

[FunkyPajamas]

Oh, ok, my bad. I thought you were somehow countering my post. Sorry.

[edit] Wait, which Leonardo are we talking about? DiCaprio or DaVinci? Or the Ninja Turtle?

all i'm concerned about is if they're going to go CGI the 3 tits on the chick, or do it the right way -old school style silicone rubber happiness.

or they can just find a real 3 tittied chick on craigslist or something. Either way it's win/win.

A man who knows his priorities. I welcome you to our midst.

The Ninja Turtle obviously.....duh

 

[plasmasd]

One of Arnie's best. It can't be topped.

 

[Parallax]

how can you reboot a series with only one movie?

 

[Anticitizen One]

Wait is this new movie a remake of Total Recall or an adaption of "We can remember it for you for wholesale?" (Which Total Recall was based on)?

 

[damn that's nice]

The Big Lebowski starring Seth Rogen.

Colin Farrel is one of the biggest douches I've ever seen. My god he ruined Bullseye for me(well that whole movie ruined everything about daredevil), what a stupid bastahd.

 

[Misanthropy]

Must they ruin everything? Let me guess, next they're going to reboot the Robocop saga.
