I know you have and it's appreciated : ) As with The Prisoner remake I just don't get why people swipe the tile of an old TV series of film and then change everything else about it (and not in an interesting BSG way). People old enough to remember the original will be annoyed and youngsters won't know where the title comes from so it really serves no purpose. Also how can a huge progamming house (Rockstar, Home of the GTA games so not exactly small fry)make a bleeding computer game of something with such love that it actually enhances my enjoyment of the original film whereas a film-maker (who should know better) just wants to tear the heart out of it (The Warriors with guns ? It makes no sense!). It must be the geek factor I guess, geeks with money can commit terrible crimes but they can also do great things sometimes.

When will they stop? Fucking remakes.
Oh this makes me really mad. Why do they have to remake good films? My films to boycott list is becoming longer than my films to see list.
(I know it was a "remake" of a classical story, for anyone who was about to make my day)
