They evidently have no idea who their target market is...
...or was.

NK’s? Really? Cubans were more believable.

I still don’t get why China would be offended by this.

I’m surprised they’re not dubbing in a soundtrack so that the invaders are heard speaking in the Austrian language.

"In a further move, the studio announced they will be using puppets and animation so as not to offend actual North Koreans..."

Not only that - old. The beauty of the original is that they were high schoolers.

The author of this article isn’t any too bright... the original Red Dawn movie featured in invading SOVIET army... Not Red Chinese.

They could have saved the million and millions more promoting it, by just throwing it into the trash. This movie will wind up was as many viewers as there are train riders in Los Angeles.

I was going to see it but if they are going to PC it to death then they don’t need my money and I don’t see a need to support their stupidity.
I’ll stick to the original. Great job there MGM. If stupidity were painful, you guys would be in coma’s from the sheer agony.

I don’t know the particular intelligence of the author, but the article states:
“The original action film starring Patrick Swayze and Charlie Sheen featured Russian troops invading America. “
