Wolverines!

[randog]

I’m excited and dismayed at the same time; the movie looks awesome, but I feel so old cuz they’re making remakes of my favorite movies!

[MeganC]

Yep, that won’t help get Obama any votes.

[2nd Bn, 11th Mar]

Perhaps a better title:

Red Dawn: The Wolverines Get Diversity

[longtermmemmory]

this is the one where they edited out the Chinese and put in north koreans.

This is where hollyweird kowtowed to communists, again.

[Dallas59]

Four more years of Obammy and this won’t seem so.....fictional.

“A group of teenagers look to save their town from an invasion of North Korean soldiers.”

North Koreans? REALLY?

[rsobin]

So were being invaded by whom? No thanks!

[Marie]

OOoooohhhh!!

This is freakin’ awesome!!

(Hubby is going to love this!)

[Dallas59]

It was Chinese...guess they didn’t want to “offend” our masters...

[Graewoulf]

Is “The chair is against the wall” in this movie too?

[longtermmemmory]

so the North Koreans have a “MAGIC WEAPON” and the rest of the world just stands by...

WEAK.

[trisham]

It looks good!

[autumnraine]

Always hated these awesome movies being remade...

But...

DON’T. WANT. TO. ADMIT. IT.

It looks good!

And always loved that little Josh Peck boy on Nick.

Principal photography began September 2009 in Mount Clemens, Michigan.
According to photographs taken on set, the film features propaganda pamphlets, posters, and banners featuring People's Liberation Army symbols, such as the August 1 star. The posters, which are designed to be satirical in nature, attempt to garner support for a Chinese occupation, with slogans such as "Rebuilding Your Reputation," "Repairing Your Economy," and "Fighting Corporate Corruption."
In June 2010, release of the film was delayed due to MGM’s financial difficulties. The delay came amid growing controversy in China after excerpts of the script were leaked on the website The Awl. The film drew sharp criticism from the Global Times, one of the leading Chinese state-run newspapers, with headlines such as "U.S. reshoots Cold War movie to demonize China" and "American movie plants hostile seeds against China." One of the articles stated: "China can still feel U.S. distrust and fear, especially among its people. Americans’ suspicions about China are the best ground for the hawks to disseminate fear and doubt, which is the biggest concern with the movie, Red Dawn."

In January 2011, the first cast photo was released along with news that MGM will release the film once their Chapter 11 restructuring is completed. Red Dawn is one of three already completed MGM projects scheduled to be released in 2011.
In March 2011, the Los Angeles Times reported that MGM is changing the villains in its Red Dawn remake from Chinese to North Korean in order to maintain access to China's lucrative box office. The changes reportedly cost less than $1 million and involve changing an opening sequence summarizing the story's fictional backdrop, re-editing two scenes and using digital technology to transform many Chinese symbols to Korean. The changes will not eliminate all references to China though will give North Korea a much larger role in the coalition that invades the U.S. Producer Trip Vinson stated, "We were initially very reluctant to make any changes, but after careful consideration we constructed a way to make a scarier, smarter and more dangerous 'Red Dawn' that we believe improves the movie."

When will Hollywood start coming up with worthwhile NEW scripts again? Do they not have enough monkeys?

[Graewoulf]

In the Chinese language, the word for “Pony” is Korea, if my memory hasn’t failed me again.

BTW, the Korean Conflict has never been legally resolved - - - .

[Dallas59]

After reading that MGM changed the villains from Chinese to North Koreans because the Chinese didn’t like it....Won’t be seeing it.

The kids will get weapons from their parents( who will get arrested by the city cops) When they choose to defend their land, Obamma will declare eminent domain and charge the youths with being terrorists.
The end of the movie is typical ..... the liberals claim the homosexuals were treated unfairly and demand their own fox hole. The Mexicans will remain neutral cause no matter who wins, the fence will still be there to jump over
