Really? This is what did it for you huh?
If we're going to get mad about Hollywood remakes let's take it out on somebody else and give the Coens a pass.
I'm not mad about it, and it actually looks pretty good. I'm just saying it's not an original story.
To other posters, I've known since they started this project that it was being billed as a "re-imagining." So was Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The point is that both are based on the same story. That this looks like it's going to be good does not change the fact that, dress it up with whatever terminology you like, it's the same basic story. That simple fact does not mean it's going to suck. shite, I thought the Oceans 11 remake was WAY better than the original, and that The Thomas Crown Affair was at least as good, but for every remake that succeeds, it opens the floodgates for the Longest Yard and Clash of the Titans of the world.
So in short, if this is good, we will pay. We will all pay, dearly.
About $10.50, I think, $13 if you want popcorn.
