Do Remakes REALLY bother you?

[iNFiN1TY]

If its a good movie than no, if it sucks well if doesnt have to be a remake for me to hate it then.. but i prefer fresh idea's aswell.

American remakes can bug the hell out of me, like the remake of Spanish film [rec] which was released a year or something after the original film, and the rumored "Let Her In" remake of a Swedish vampire movie. Suck it up and read the subtitles, you little twerps.

I can see why they'd want to remake a film that's over 20 years old though, like with all the horror films that are being spewed out lately, and that doesn't bother me per se. Mostly I just don't watch them. Best way to avoid being annoyed.

I agree with you for a bit but, that was the whole idea of desert brutal people, to be crude and offensive, i guess, the idea was on the original one, but, it lacked almost everything beside the plot, and the remake, in this case, i think bought some few good solid points.

On the downside, Hills have eyes, tend to go on the "Wrong Turn" movie... and that kinda was a bit disappointing.

Yeah, but they could have been less....tasteless with the whole rape thing.

Agreed, they could do the film without that part. Even so, i guess, it's a better remake than the Omen, again, lolol.

I don't mind remakes when they are done right and show the proper respect to the classic.

Contradiction in terms.

Yeah, I know. It's really quite sad.

It's a product of cultural illiteracy. Young people don't know about the original so go see a movie with a cool premise (which is why it got made to begin with) and think it will naturally be good because of said premise.
