A wish for the day...edited
Oh, how I wish that Hollywood would stop remaking films, in particular I really wish they had not announced a remake of Total Recall.
The original may not be every person's cup of tea, but it was still a damn fine film in my opinion, and when it comes to films, I am firmly in the 'if it ain't broke...' catagory.
Please Hollywood, a decent film should never have to be re-made, if only the studio execs would focus on new films, or if it is entirely necessary to re-make a film, by all means re-make a really shit one (obviously into something less shitty!), something nothing like the awesomeness of Stop or My Mom Will Shoot...more like something along the same lines of shittiness as Indian Jones and The Kingdom of The Crystal Skull, now that would be a challenge!
And while I am on the subject of remakes...has anyone noticed that there's a new series of Knight Rider on Sci-Fi channel? I am not going to go into my rant again, as unlike films, I have been proven wrong with remakes or re-imaginings of t.v. series, most notably BSG, has anyone actually watched this, and is it any good?
Is it just me who has movie re-make phobia? Am I insane or am I just bored in work and in need of a bitching session?
