The Thing with Kurt Russell was a great remake.

It will probably be more entertaining than the original since there won't be that totally fake looking conjoined fetus thing talking from the guy's abdomen and it won't have Ahnold IT'S NOT A TUMOH! Schwarzenegger. The original was okay, but just okay. Anything worthwhile was because it was an adaptation of a Philip K. Dick story.

The feature film of Buffy was terrible and the writer had much more control over the superior TV show.

Holden was the ne’er-do-well younger brother. Bogart was the responsible older brother who eventually got the girl.

No...the 76 version was. Jackson’s was mentioned as being a worthy effort.

Whats next Hollyweird?
A remake of “Gone with the Wind”?
But in a pro liberal, Dixie hating, Rainbow agenda themed re=make?

My girls were in high school when the remake was about to come out. I got the original and we watched it - they loved the acting.
We went and saw the remake on the big screen and it sucked. Way too much CGI and way to little acting.
And turning the German Engineer into some crazed fruit loop? Waazzz up with that?
The original - well, Korda’s 1939 version - Four Feathers was also way better than the remake.
True Grit - both had their good points.

I remember the wall paintings, but I must have missed the rest of that. I’ll have to go back and check it out again.
He is always pretty intricate with the sets, like in that scene from Life Aquatic where he scrolls sideways through the whole cutaway of the ship. I think the stuff in Rushmore with the kid making detailed dioramas of the plays he dreams up was probably autobiographical.
To: KosmicKitty
I’m with you hoping that is not done. That likely couldn’t be done today anyway- all the political correctness would bring it to a standstill.
