Zach Snyder remaking Escape from New York

Not a completely horrible idea. Snyder has a gift for imagery, but sucks as a writer. While Kurt Russell's performance was iconic, the original movie doesn't hold up all that great on rewatch nowadays. That said, recasting that role will be a challenge.

But he could make a visually awesome version of this movie. Just need someone to babysit him if he's writing the script.

Can’t wait to see Zendaya in the lead kicking a bunch of evil white dude’s arse.

It's going to be some woke a$$ shart. Larenz Tate or Michael B. Jordan will play the lead role.

No, it is a completely horrible idea.

There has to be more graphic novels out there he can adapt frame by frame like 300 and Watchmen. Those are easily his best movies. Even in those, the stuff he came up with on his own are the worst parts.

They should get Wyatt Russell to play Snake.

She is the most overlooked hottie of the 80s, bar none...

Justine Bateman chimes in, speaking of 80's hotties:
She is jacked now, but man o man. . .8-year-old me was crushing hard

Good movies from good writer/directors should not be remade by bad writer/directors

You aren't looking forward to the initial horrible version, and the overwrought "Snyder Cut" which will be much longer and also horrible?
