...So the Kirk Cameron series based off the same books wasn't enough they had to remake it? What, because Tim LaHaye, one of the original authors of the books, didn't make enough off the original series? The studio decides to remake it so he can get a better cut?

Of course when the movie is panned for Cage's bad acting or anything else, the Christian right will just point out it is the "liberal media" trying to put down the Christian message and not be an actual review of the film's merits.

I'm surrounded daily by people who believe this stuff. Who believe the election of Obama is a sign of the end of times. When climate change gets to the point even they can't deny it anymore, they'll still deny it is human activity and chalk it up to more proof that we're in the end times and it's just like the Bible said. That this nation (somehow the US is special) is being judged for abortion and homosexuality, the last just like Sodom... of course if you point out that the Bible says that the specific sin of Sodom was being a land of plenty and doing nothing to help the needy and the poor, they just change subjects.

I don't think it would be that hard for studios to release both an R and PG-13 version of a movie to theaters at the same time. Simply have the R ones start after 9pm, and PG-13 start before. Or on weekends show both in different rooms (since many of the larger theaters have same movie running on multiple screens anyway).

Personally I don't pay attention to the ratings when deciding to see a movie or not, but I can see it being important for parents taking their kids to see something. For example I didn't NOT see Expendables 3 because it was PG-13, I chose not too because it looked exactly like the first 2, and didn't want to waste money on it. Maybe I'll watch it on Netflix eventually.

I also thought the remakes of both Total Recall and Robocop were decent in their own way, both were PG-13 where the originals were R, and I don't think it took away from the movie.

Of course movies like Scarface have to be R, because that's the nature of the story and character. Look for the TV version of Scarface, and the voice-overs they did to achieve it- so funny ("This city's like a chicken, waiting to be plucked").

Poltergeist should not have been PG. Thinking of that scene with the tree during the thunderstorm still gives me goosebumps.

If they were to do a remake of They Live, this would be a cool way to display the world through the glasses.

Having said that... please don't do a remake of They Live, Hollywood

Edward Woodward, the guy who did the original Wicker Man, also. Let's pray this isn't as bad as that remake.

I can see it now:

"Eddie Murphy.... Adam Sandler in: "Two Headed Freak!" A remake from the 70's classic "The Thing With Two Heads.

Eddie Murphy is Maxwell Fielder, the successful CEO and founder of a bio-tech company, who is dying from a degenerative disease.

Adam Sandler is Jake Antonelli, a door-to-door salesman, who stumbles unto a murder scene and is wrongfully thought to be the culprit, but hasn't given up on finding the real killers.

Maxwell Fielder's bio-tech company R&D department, manages to convince the state to have a convict become a volunteer for a temporary head transplant."

No need to thank me Hollywood. I'll take my check now, please!

This is a fantastic adaptation.
It also prompted me to submit another awesome bluegrass remake:
*related=http://videosift.com/video/Luther-Wright-and-the-Wrongs-Rebuild-the-Wall

And a preemptive "fuck you sift-bot" for the record.

Somehow, I see a remake of "Survivorman: Australia Outback" with the roasted Witchety bug being augmented by all the roasted emu Les Stroud can eat...using some variant of this technique

Well ... at least it's not a remake or reboot ... only an adaptation.

Watching the remake of Robocop, I was very disappointed to not hear even one person utter that wonderous line
and oh yeah *dead

Hooray! We reached and exceeded -16 votes!

First of all I'd like to thank Jesus for making this possible. (That's the Mexican guy who linked me to the trailer.)

But more importantly thanks to all of you for being as disappointed as I am in Michael Bay for taking the dream of a new, awesome TMNT series and crushing it like a dung beetle.

When I heard they were remaking it, it took me back to that elementary school playground where someone told me they were going to release a TMNT movie with live-action turtles. I was in disbelief, but then I could not wait. It was the most excited I'd ever been for a movie.

The possibility of reliving that excitement for a new TMNT was, as @newtboy put it, raped from my soul when I heard Michael Bay was at the helm. This trailer confirmed my worst fears.

I hope for all voting to cease so this pile of turd can sit on on the sift with exactly -17 votes as a testament to what transpired here.

Kumbaya, everybody.


*Kumbaya.

Kinda reminds me of Richard Cheese and Lounge Against the Machine.
They did a cover of Disturbed's Down With the Sickness for the Dawn of the Dead remake.
