Rip-offs
 

In the history of ripping off other films, what film has been the biggest "borrower?"

I'm saying My Bloody Valentine b/c it was trying to be Friday the 13th so bad. Both slashers, both use famous dates, and both were produced at Paramount.

im going off horror and saying crouching tiger hidden dragon ripprd matrix off or was it the other way around? i enjoyed crouching tiger a little better tho!

Not busting on you or anything, but why does everyone think The Matrix invented wire-fighting?

To "borrow" a phrase from Arioch: Crouching Tiger OWNS The Matrix.

lol


i would have to say

jason X is a rip off of all the other jason.....that moive isnt even a jason movie in my opinion so that it ripped it off.....lol

Good one. SHITTY movie all the way too.

I'll go for The Eye. Not only did it rip off Sixth Sense, but it ripped off The Mothman Prophecies---and never, ever rip-off Richard Gere movie!!!!

But some of my favorite exploitaion movie are knock-offs of Dawn of the Dead, Road Warrior, and Appocalypse Now (love Italian Vietnam flicks---in Dawson's The Last Hunter a black guy actually passes himself off as a Viet Cong; then when he gets shot, his leg just falls off. How can you not love something like that????).

if you think almost all of todays movies riped off some other flick. do you think movies would be so bloody if it wasnt for alfred hitchcock theres a million other things like that. i think the most original writternow a days is stephen king

But King just admitted that he's starting to rip-off himself. How's that for a laugh?

Now you are "psychic" as well as "all-knowing"...I was going to say that...LOL...Christine and From A Buick 8...:)
