I refuse to watch that shite.

Absolute garbage. So many remake possibilities and they choose to remake an 80s movie that only works in an 80s setting.

The original doesn't just disappear, but I guess there is the concern that when studios spend so much money on remakes then originals get shafted.

A Pixar version of Watership Down. Let's fricking scar kids for life with a movie dumb parents won't realize what they are taking their kids too. I bet it would be really good though.

Do: The Purge (they took an amazing concept, that could've been told through incredible drama/character studies and assraped it into a cheap thriller/boderline slasher flick)


Don't: A lot of them

DO.....Starship troopers.... The one that came out in the 90s was horrible. Follow Robert Heinleins book this time and it will be a great.

DONT...... There's so many. Only shitty movies should be redone. Not good ones.

How was this an amazing concept? Original I guess, but stupid IMO. Maybe I'm in the minority.
