I agree with you, it's just that so many remakes don't pan out, but people still talk about them all the time. People are still going crazy over the Battle Royale remake that will probably never happen. That's why I don't really pay attention to remakes until they start filming.

I'm gonna remake your list of hated things. You now hate people who answer the phone 'Yello!', the theme song to Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, the planet Jupiter, frogs (but not toads), and 75% of the things I post.

They announce a remake within pretty much the same year for any foreign horror that hits a certain gross income i swear. Watch they get Tarintino to direct the BR remake (actually not a bad idea...)...

...hmm...

she also hates people who think Tarintino could automatically do a good job directing remakes of asian films.

that can fall within the 75% hatred of my words.

still tho. BR reminded me of asian tarintinoxploitation, which is a perfectly cromulent word.

I don't really hate anything else you named but I really do, really fucking hate that.

I've been saying for years that if they ever had to remake it, he's the one person I'd want to do it. I don't think they will at all though. I already had my reservations about believing an actual remake of it when it was announced, then the VA Tech shootings happened and I said there's no fucking way.

I do, but BR is one of the only ones I'd trust him with. I don't think there's anyone who would fuck it up less than him.


Back on topic I guess... I'm one of those people who grew up watching and loving The Crow. Never saw the sequels and I don't want to. Fuck everything else.

[RyanRomero]

Most of the time when remakes are done i can see why.. but this i cant. I love this movie and a remake is a waste of time it will be a flop, no doubt.

[Samhain_Grim]

Fuck you guys. The Crow is an awsome movie. It was a great comic book film back when even watchable ones were hard to come by. Plus the soundtrack is great.

No I had it right the first time bro. The movie sucks. The story was awful, the acting was shit, the setting was lame. It's a shame that Brandon had to die for it too.

Please, for the love of god, don't even JOKE about QT remaking Battle Royale. Kinji Fukasaku is a fucking legend...QT is a hack, and would shit all over the film like he's shit all over everything else he's ever done. Of course, he wouldn't really remake it though. He'd just make another movie with the exact same plot and themes, and say he was just "inspired" by it

I totally agree...Tarantino is shit.
