Just wondering why you think this?:D
I did like the soundtrack from Dawn of the Dead but that wasn't enough to make me like it better than the first!:p

I didn't say it was better than the first because it's not, but unlike most remakes it's a really well written and acted film that doesn't make you say ''why did they have to fuck this up with a remake'' I like the TCM remake also wasn't great but wasn't bad either just not as good as the Dawn remake. Once again that's just my opinion.

I wasn't criticizing your opinion, just curious. I've put my opinion on here many times and got bashed, so i ain't gone be like that. N e way everybody keeps talking about The Fog remake. I haven't heard of it. Any details?:D :confused:

it starts production in march. it's being directed by the same guy who did Stigmata(can't remember his name)

what would you like me to be;)

Anybody who knows anything about the remake of "Prom Night" ?.....dont think I have seen the originale either.....(maybe on video in the early 80's :confused: )

I dont understand why people bash remakes. In some cases I think they turn out better than original. The Thing and Dawn of the Dead IMO both surpassed the originals in every way. TCM IMO was as good as the original. Assault on Precinct 13 sucked but oh well. Overall I think the remakes have had a pretty good success rate.

Remaking Prom Night?! :eek:

I bet you most fans here who bash remakes are under the age of 30 and probley dont know that the Hunchback of Norte Dame 1923 Count Dracula 1931 Frankenstien 1931 are all remakes. I bet if you ask them what they think of these 3 classics I just typed they will say they are awesome. I have no problem with remakes when done well. Its a real credit to the film maker when fans think the movie he remade is the original.

yes...are you suprised ? :)

you've been here for a about a month(I think) so trust me everybody knows this by now.

Austin if every board member knew that remakes are not bad then there would not be any bashing comments on remakes. You just have to remind those who dont know every once in a while. Of course not all remakes are good but some are very good. You know I would like to see posts about remakes that are good

I think remakes are sometimes cooler than the original, but I always have the urge to be loyal to the first one. If you think of them as being two completely different movies, it helps.

I think a good reason for a movie to be remade is if the original was not very good. Or in the case of the KingKong movie in 1976 that was not so much a remake as it was an adaptation a retelling of the Kong story. The question is why remake a movie at all if the original is a masterpiece like Kingkong 1933. I know many Kong fans are excited about Peter Jacksons remake of KingKong that opens next december. But why remake the movie in the 1st place? Dont get me wrong I like Kong and I think a remake might be a good idea then again someone thought a few years back a remake of Mighty Joe Young was a good idea was it?

Re: remakes
 

I agree. I think people should give all movies a chance and judge them on their own merits.
