It's a great show but it is BW and 60 years old. Ben Stiller would be good in the Bogey part. I don't know who today could play the old man howard. Wally stole this movie.
a terrorist is a man who has a bomb but doesn't have an air force
There's no way this movie could get any better. Color, better looking actors, special effects, whatever, movies just do not get any better or more classic than this. It might be able to be done, but somehow the Hollywood producers always try to shove in so many things to appeal to all kinds of different groups that the remakes end up appealing to no one.
shareWe think alike when it comes to the oldies but I have to say, the Palance/Winters COLOR remake is heads/tails better ... and I'm a huge Bogie fan !!
shareWhat are you talking about .... can you put a link out?
shareBruce: I believe Ironman is referring to "I Died a Thousand Times" (1955), the remake of "High Sierra" (which has nothing to do with TTOTSM, other than Bogie having starred in both movies and "Sierra" in both titles.)
(The remake was a nice showcase for Jack Palance but it was no match for "High Sierra.")
There was an episode of Remington Steele that was an "homage" to the film.
Bad films are a crime against humanity.
Let's not forget THE FLINSTONES Season 6; Feb 1966
THE TREASURE OF SIERRA MADROCK
And the 1949 Bugs Bunny short featuring cartoon Bogart's Fred C Dobbs
asking Bugs's help for a fellow American.
Bugs gives him the lost penguin instead!
"Ben Stiller would be good in the Bogey part"
REALLY sad
If you want to count an ep. of "Cheyenne" as you watch it, it slowly creeps up up on you and then you realize you are watching a version of this movie. B Traven eve gets screen credit at the end
shareThere are huge nods to Sierra Madre withiin There Will Be Blood.
Paul Thomas Anderson loves The Treasure of...
I hope to god it never gets remade. A Classic.
Pack your bags... we're going to Memphis.

Really? Could you point out one of two? Can't seem to think of any.

Why does it need to be remade? Because it's 60 years old? So what!
It was made, it remains a classic. Someone can make another movie based on the novel if they want but they don't have to remake a movie that was already made.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.
Think this is a non-serious/trolling post.
