I had wanted to see it initially and then I was told it was "Blair Witch in Outer Space."

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread

Apparently a Point Break remake is in the works. Personally I don't think I'm going to be that excited about it, simply because nobody can replace The Swayze. And I feel confident in saying this remake will probably be overloaded with excessive CGI. Aka this will be another attempt to remake a classic movie so you can pilfer more hard earned money from people. But then again some of the blame has to go to the people willing to pay to see these remakes in the first place.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread

Anybody interested in Moneyball? I gotta say, it looks good from the previews, and the article I read about it in SI was great as well. I think I'm gonna have to see that eventually. 50/50 looks good as well too. I wish I could say the same about Killer Elite but that looks like your status quo Jason Statham film.

I saw Bridesmaids against my semi-dissenting will the other day, and I gotta say it was actually pretty funny. Definitely not your tediously boring standard chick flick about getting married. I loved the flight scene, I thought that was absolutely hilarious. Very well done on that one, I like the new direction that movie took us in.

Exactly. Is Point Break really so old that it needs to be remade? It's not like Dawn of the Dead where enough time had passed and technology advanced enough to warrant the 2004 version.



or another movie/story that was due for a remake.


Seriously I'm seeing nothing here to justify a remake.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread

saw bridesmaids with the lady last night. its was real funny, def recommend it for couples.

anyone seen contagion? thumbs up or down.

also saw this docu-drama from 1984 called "story of a junkie" were it follows this junkie around NYC. the footage is real, cool docu-drama that really captured the time, place and vibe.

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread

I saw Pearl Jam Twenty last week, pretty cool to see it in the theater. Highly recommended if you're a PJ fan.

It comes out on DVD later this month.

Hahaha... seriously, Carpenter's is a classic. But for some reason, I'll still go see this. So will you mred- it's in our horror nature to do so!

They're also remaking the French horror film Martyrs with Kristen Stewart. I don't know how American audiences are going to take this one...

Also not sure how Spike Lee's Oldboy is going to remain faithful to the Korean version without offending audiences stateside.
