movie remakes
Television here in California is running promos for a new movie "the Wicker Man" a remake of a 1973 movie , this time featuring Nick Cage in the Edward Woodward role ........anyway this got me thinking , can anyone say what re-makes are better than the original....my take on the subject
Manchurian Candidate...Frank Sinatra/Laurence Harvey........great
Manchurian Candidate.....Denzel Washington ......................Bad
the Alamo.......John Wayne .........................................good
the Alamo......Billy Bob Thornton...................................bad
Goodbye Mr Chips.....Robert Donet .............................good
every remake .................................................. .......bad
Pride and Predudice...Greer Garson.............................good
every remake .................................................. .....bad
Seven Samuri (japanese movie)...............................great
Magnificent Seven (hollywood)................................good
Strictly Ballroom (japanese original)........................good
Strictly Ballroom ..Richard Gere/Jlo........................abysmal
you get the idea , so let us know your thoughts
