no more remakes! please!


What is it with these people?

All of a sudden every movie developer/writer/star want to continue or remake their past successes into a newly developed movie.

Is it a new trend? Or has Hollywood finally kicked the bucket on new original ideas for its movies?

Seriously, it's getting so pathetic that even I don't think its funny.

Robocop's original writer wants to revisit the franchise in consideration of local controversial politics these days.

Somebody stop them - please..

What's funny is that the original Robocop fits today's society better than it did when it came out: Sensational, excessive, and apathetic news coverage, extreme violence in nearly every community, failing police departments, increasing corporate greed. But I do agree with you, please. . . do not let them create a re-make. The second Robocop was ok, the third was an atrocity another sequel, prequel, or remake will only add insult to an already well insulted and dead market.

Robocop is one of the few action movies I actually do like. I wouldn't mind if they re-made another one of those instead of the millionth batman, superman or indiana jones!

In any case, I haven't seen a truly original movie that was produced after the 60's probably. :p
