Remake From New York

[TeeDeeGee]

So it's official now, the guy directing the Escape From New York remake is the guy who directed Live Free or Die Hard and Underworld. (http://www.aintitcool.com/node/33675)
Blagh.

I'm a big fan of the original, and of course I think this is one of those movies that there is really no point to remake, but oh well.
Gerard Butler as Plisken is intriguing though...

The sheer insanity of that would make it incredible. :thinking:

I'm pretty sure Jamie Kennedy can only get hired when he's writing, directing and playing some awful "white hip hop guy" character.

Remakes suck now, the idea is so unoriginal.

I wish they'd just rerelease old movies in the theater.

It'd be great to see old shit like that on the big screen.

Speaking of chicks getting naked in films, how about giving Lost Highway a proper release at the theater?

I'd rather see a handful of great old movies than some of the garbage they're pumping out these days.
