This I can get behind -- The Killer was fantastic, and it's John Woo remaking his own movie, so that softens the blow a bit. Just don't know if Woo has anything left in the tank anymore.

Correct - although if they had to do it, Harlow is potentially a great choice.

Yep, it's one remake I'd be very interested in. In fact, Woo could remake much of his Hong Kong catalog AFAIC.

I don't know if I'd touch Hard Boiled, but I'd love to see an updated version of Bullet in the Head.

Woe and strife.

Is that the sequel to Peace, Love & Misunderstanding?

I support this reboot under the belief that it can't possibly be as weak as the original movie.

Same. So many poor decisions made on the original. Let's try again.

Absolutely no money in that.

Absolutely no money in that.

I don’t know. That’s what they did with Ocean’s 11. The original was really bad, but getting a Rat Pack group of guys together for a heist was a recipe for success.

I don’t know. That’s what they did with Ocean’s 11. The original was really bad, but getting a Rat Pack group of guys together for a heist was a recipe for success.

I'll add Dune, It, A Star is Born, Casino Royal, and The Italian Job off the top of my head. Is it more risky? Probably. But it's not like Flash, Indy, Little Mermaid, and most of recent remakes/sequels are making money.

I'd add Super Mario to the list of remakes of bad movies but I'm not sure if that counts. We did have the Hopkins one though.

There are always exceptions. Oceans isn’t a good one imo because the original was so old.

The industry is just trolling @Stout at this point.
