Couldn't be worse than the original, I'll watch it.

A mantis? I don't remember that from the book, or from the first movie. Oo

*looks at first post* Yeah pretty sure it was mentioned.

:confused:You mean Giant spider?

I'm sick of Stephen King Villains ending up as Giant Spiders.

What the? I didn't see this topic when I did my search.....I guess I need to touch up my searching ability. I was wondering why my post got deleted. I still can't believe news for this remake was out in 2005! Where the hell does one get info that early? Unless it's the whole insder aspect. I never thought of checking if there would ever be a remake to this movie. Man I CAN'T WAIT for this :)

I'm looking forward to it. I'll definitely watch it.

I made a thread relating to this movie but what the mod did was erase my thread and simply add my post to this existing thread. That's why it looks like I didn't make sense with that post...

It Remake
 

Hi

Been searching the all day trying to find out as much as I can about a possible remake.

From what I can tell WB was going to green light a remake.
However that was the last of it.

A screen writer apparently wrote a screenplay. However it was only long enough for a 2 hour movie.

This doesn't sound like a good idea. Based on the length of the book a true remake would be at least a 2 part movie. 2 hours+ each.

Anyone have any thoughts or news?

They would have to do it in parts like how they're planning on doing The Stand. They could probably do one half as the kids and the other as adults but i think that would seem repetitive. I liked how in the book it went back and forth. I havent seen the miniseries in a long time and i cant exactly remember how they did it in that but i think it was the same as the book. I know they left a lot out. I would like to see a version of it that was truer to the book.
