    I actually preferred the footloose remake to the original.

    I'm totally with North on Clash of the Titans. I was psyched for the remake, as its an old favorite of mine...but badly dated, and with seriously cheesey and hopelessly obsolete special effects.

    What we got was flat out terrible. A horrid movie in this or any other age.

    The fact that you prefer either is telling.





    Rav, I have to disagree with you on the Dawn of the Dead remake, that movie is badass.

    Its funny you said that, because I put that on, then took it off, and put it back on again...and still never felt that it fit the category. So I'm going to say that I agree with you, at the same time, disagreeing with you. I'm not even sure that makes sense, except in my own twisted little head.

    Clash of the Titans should have been on my list as well. TERRIBLE remake.... which is weird, because it has SOOO much potential to be a great movie.

    .Halloween Do I keep needing to say the same thing?
    I actually thought these were pretty good (the 2007 King Kong) although i do have a soft spot (ok, not so soft... lol) for the 78' version because of how hot Jessica Lange was but as far as story, graphics, etc i thought 2007 version was pretty good. I didnt mind Zombie's Halloween remake as he gave it a few enough changes to make it interesting and gave Myers a little more back story. And Dawn of the Dead caught me by surprise but the idea of faster zombies was pretty good and a nice wrinkle.

    Not sure which Godzilla you were referring too, if its the 1997 version i agree totally. If its the one from last year i absolutely loved that version.

    Cant really judge based on the fact ive seen neither. But i do look at it much like i looked at the Karate Kid movie.

    2.The Fog- Nuff said....

    3.Walking Tall- Grew up loving the original and while i think this had massive potential they tried to dumb it down with Knoxville and a very short and paper thin plot arrangement.

    4.Conan the Barbarian- Remember thinking after the opening scene this was going to be awesome, well.....not so much...

    5.Planet of the Apes (Wahlberg)- Thank god they rebooted it because this was utter trash, i cant even give the DVD away at this point.

    6.Karate Kid- Sorry, do we really need to mix in race here just to say we did? I mean really? Even Jackie Chan couldnt save it.

    7.Bangkok Dangerous- Nick Cage has some great movies on his resume, this isnt one of them. He is not a very convincing hitman.

    8.A Nightmare on Elm Street- Love Earle Haley in The Watchman, but he should of steered clear of this role. What the **** were they thinking? You cannot replace Robert England in one of the most iconic roles ever.



    Anyway, you guys can add to this or give your own lists. I have yet to see the Evil Dead remake but have heard its actually pretty good.
    1. I'm going to have to watch Clash of the Titans again. I didn't think it was terrible; didn't think it was great, either.
    2. Yeah, that was pretty bad. Wasn't it a SyFy original, or is that just where I see it?
    3. I had no clue that was a remake.
    4. I liked the new Conan, not that it was good, but I was entertained. It can't beat the old ones by any stretch, though.
    5. Agreed. The newest reboot was great, though.
    6. Pretty cheesy.
    7. Haven't seen it.
    8. There are so many I'm going to have to look up which one this is. The Rob Zombie Halloween was pretty good, IMO.
    *The statements above are my opinions, unless they are links, because then they are links, which wouldn't make them my opinions, and I suppose stats aren't necessarily opinion, but they are certainly presented to support an opinion. Proceed accordingly.

    I'm referrring to all of the Godzillas. I hated this most recent one, but the 1997 one (wow, didn't realize tht was that long ago).... was horrendous. So the 2014 didn't reach that kind of 'fail' in my book.

    Yeah.. Dawn of the Dead.... I probably should have left that off the list the more you guys are questioning it.

    I was going to say that - but I havent seen the remake yet - I am inclined not to - We have watched the original like 5 times in the last two weeks - the helicopter scene is to die for.

    Agree with you 100%. Im all for gender equality but forcing the square peg in the round hole isnt the answer. I think that movie will bomb and bomb badly.
