    The way he did the TV shows when whatshisname was channel surfing was genius, because it was exactly what its like if you flip through certain channels.
    Having a clear conscience just means you have a bad memory or you had a boring weekend.

      Indeed. He did really capture the average fed-up American citizen attitude/behaviors. It was kinda like watching Old Pio in real life.

      And "In Bruges," I agree. It was decent but not great.
      Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

        God Bless America was Natural Born Killers if it wasn't written on acid.

        Bobcat did steal a line from Jackie Brown though.

          Good lord, they're remaking Red Dawn with North Koreans as the bad guys?

          Hollywood really has run out of ideas, hasn't it?

            What's new? They were doing remakes of movies constantly in the old days.

              That's true. Pretty much every large box office movie was remade every decade in the teens, 20's, 30's and 40's.

                I suppose it's only reasonable to note that those were also the days of no VHS/DVD/Blu-ray/Home streaming, but I stand by the notion that remakes aren't as big a deal as people say.

                  I think it's the fact they're remaking movies that weren't even large hits to begin with. See Total Recall, Red Dawn, and to a lesser extent, The Karate Kid.

                    I think a lot of the early Hollywood remakes were driven off the success of stage plays. Just as it's not at all unusual to have Revues, Hollywood and Broadway would alternate with a screenplay, often using many of the same actors.

                    Also, a lot of stories were retold in the progression play --> silent movie --> b&w soundie --> color.

                    So everybody get ready for all those Tyler Perry movies being reshot in 3D.

                            Star Wars Episodes 7, 8, & 9. All focused on the life and times of Jar-Jar Binks.

                            Don't laugh, people would pay to see that trainwreck.
