Are you a purest..?
 
I am soooo tired of the Art Fags out there that totally refuse to watch the new remakes of great horror films. I have a buddy who is a "purest" and is constantly telling me how he will never see this remake or that remake then the next time I talk to him he miraculously saw the movie on accident and he just completely bashes it. Ex. the new Dawn of the Dead. This is the same guy who had the nerve to say that Land of the Dead was a far superior movie to the new Dawn, Shaun and 28 days! I was like are fucking kidding all 3 of those movies where much better. Than Land. Not to say that Land was bad of course.. It just wasnt up to par with the other three mentioned.

I guess what I am saying is please fans of horror be open minded and enjoy the media we are given re-done or not. There is some great stuff out there.

I always say, "What's the big deal?"...It isn't like the remake is out to REPLACE the original...So what if the originals are usually better?...The remakes are still better than a lot of OTHER movies out there.....I'm more than happy to have 2 movies instead of one (or in some cases 3 or more ;) *Invasion Of The Body Snatchers* )...Especially when the remakes are based on movies that I already love...That's just more for me :)

Hi friend. Reading your post honestly made me stop and think for a moment of the sound of when you jump in sonic the hedgehog. Then I thought of the music that plays when you die in wonderboy. Then, I started wondering why so many 8 and 16 bit characters kinda bounced, then fell down the bottom of the screen, every time you die, I mean, are they making a last ditch effort to live, or what? ..I then momentarily paused to think of this badass spicy as all hell pizza in front of me right now, then wondered if Ill have a nippy little tune play when I die...and finally, I realised I'd forgotten what you were talking about.
Oh, and..."PurIst";)

No...I'll give any movie a fair chance.

Example- I watched House of the Dead 3 times before shelving it for good.

Damn those Art Fags.

Damn them to Gay Hell.

After reading your post and many other post in this forum I realized that I did not join "horror".com forum rather I joined "letsseehowpettyfacetioussarcasticrudeandohletsnot forgetjusthowincrediblyarogantandsmartweare".com. I guess I am just a "newb" and I should be prepared for the squatters and dregs of the forum to spew there "sarcasm" aka low self esteem upon me. Good work stud..! Oh not to mention this will probably send shockwaves through Cheeba and all his minions and I will be bombarded with heavy lashings. God who knows they might ignore me..Maybe I just missed the point completely and this is a friendly hazing so I can be a bitter blogger too.. Damn what a quandry should I post this..? Should I say nothing..? Have I already given him what he wants by spending the time to post this? I cannot win... Damn Cheeba you are good.

You need to toughen up, homes.

Old = good.

New = baaaaad.

(Unless it's good)

Dude...If you're offended THAT easily, and you take things that seriously...You're never gonna make it here...
