My question is are they going to remake part 2 & 3? Because the Omen story isn't complete without 2 & 3. Besides, I personaly like #2 the best.

time will tell over pts 2=3, guess they will, theres big bucks to be made out of the omen franchise.

hope they dont bother with the remake of omen 4, that was just shit and should have never been made in the first place...

I fully agree, normaly when I talk to people about the Omen, I don't even acknowledge that #4 exist.

its definatley a trilogy, or how a trilogy should be. bit like the godfather, evil dead.

i was a bit suprized that romero decided to add to the 'dead' trilogy. having said that, it was his choice and wernt really that bad as when compared to omen 4.....

heh, i bought the 1st 3 on DVD individually - when i could have gotten the 4 movie boxset cheaper :D

ive got the omen trilogy limited edition, gold-leaf boxset. contains loadsa kool stuff like film cells, copies of the original theatrical posters, loadsa film and character/actor info. it cost me a shit loada money tho. good thing is, i dont play any of the boxset caus ive got em vhs from years earlier so if i wanna watch em the vhs go on instead. the boxset was more of an invesment thing.

bought pt4 seperatly....wish i never bothered. think it was more to do with, well pts 1-3 are kool so 4 maybe. how wrong i was....live and learn, live and learn...

Ever notice that Hollywood goes out of their way to remake a movie that was already good in the first place rather than trying to remake crap like #4 that could actually use a remaking instead ?

Good point.

well, its not a mystery.

they want to ride the coat-tails of a money maker - not an unheard of piece of made for TV junk.

they are in the business of making money - not righting wrongs.

this is the same mentality behind remaking songs too.

you already have a built in audience.

i'm not saying it is an ideal situation for genre fans - its just the reality of doing business.
